Patent number: 5088059Abstract: Detection device for a magnetic bubble memory having a detection zone (6) constituted by rows (7) of patterns (8) suitable for the propagation of bubbles in strip form, as well as a transition zone (10) making it possible to draw out the bubbles in strip form. The transition zone 10 has at least one row (18) of soft magnetic material patterns, (18) which has at least one central pattern (22) and a second pattern (24) adjacent to the central pattern (22). The central pattern (22) has a first part (22a) able to guide a magnetic bubble and a second part (22b) able to aid the propagation of a bubble in strip form. The second pattern (24) is able to aid the propagation of a bubble in strip form, while not disturbing the propagation of a bubble along the first part (22a) of the central pattern (22).Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 1990Date of Patent: February 11, 1992Assignee: Commissariat a l'Energie AtomiqueInventors: Jean-Marc Fedeli, Joel Magnin

Patent number: 4912673Abstract: Magnetic bubble memory in hybrid technology using rows of chevron patterns. The memory detection system has an active detection zone (4) constituted by rows of chevrons, in order to stretch into the form of a strip the bubbles from a propagation path (2), and a first detector (8); a bubble elimination zone (12) constituted by forcing back means (18) for stopping the advance of the bubbles and for forcing them outside the detection system; and a passive detection zone (6) located following the bubble elimination zone (12) and incorporating a second detector (9), to which no bubble must be exposed, in order to eliminate the unwanted signal due to the influence of a rotary magnetic field necessary for the propagation of the bubbles. According to the invention, elimination zone (12) is provided with at least one barrier (20) produced by ion implantation in order to block the passage of the bubbles from active zone (4) to passive zone (6).Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 1988Date of Patent: March 27, 1990Assignee: Commissariat a l'Energie AtomiqueInventors: Jean-Marc Fedeli, Joel Magnin, Marie-Therese Delaye, Marc Rabarot

Patent number: 4881198Abstract: A duplicator in a magnetic bubble memory with non-implanted patterns, a process for realizing the duplicator and a serial - parallel magnetic bubble memory having at least one of the aforementioned duplicators are disclosed. In a magnetic bubble memory having a first group of aligned non-implanted patterns and a second group of aligned non-implanted patterns, the duplicator according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises an extension conductor and a breaking conductor, the extension conductor linking the first and second groups of patterns, the breaking conductor being positioned transversely with respect to the extension conductor, the geometry of the end pattern of the first group of patterns being such that the duplication position is a stable position and the geometry of the patterns of the second group adjacent the axis of the first group being such that the reception position of the duplicated bubble is a stable position.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 1989Date of Patent: November 14, 1989Assignee: Commissariat a l'Energie AtomiqueInventors: Jean-Marc Fedeli, Joel Magnin

Patent number: 4773054Abstract: A bubble memory with a hybrid junction formed between a first propagation track defined by a boundary between an implanted area and a non-implanted area and a second propagation track defined by a sequence of deposited patterns. The overlap zone between the tracks has a surface substantially equal in size to the magnetic bubble. The boundary cleared by the magnetic bubble has a direction perpendicular to an easy magnetization axis of the magnetic material of the memory, and an implanted area is formed beneath one leg of the deposited pattern.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 1987Date of Patent: September 20, 1988Assignee: Commissariat a l'Energie AtomiqueInventors: Marie-Therese Delaye, Jean-Marc Fedeli, Joel Magnin, Marc Rabarot

Patent number: 4592017Abstract: A magnetic bubble memory is formed of a series of longitudinally oriented minor registers and at least one transversely oriented major access register, all of these registers having patterns with boundaries defined by ionically implanted zones of a magnetic garnet layer. The memory is formed also with a structure for transferring bubbles from one end of the minor register to the major register, and is further configured with layered material having a predetermined format for displacing the bubbles in each minor register upon application of a rotating magnetic field. The physical structure of the memory also permits a displacement of the bubbles of the major register by the circulation of currents in two electrically conductive sheets which are superimposed on the magnetic garnet layer.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 1984Date of Patent: May 27, 1986Assignee: Commissariat a l'Energie AtomiqueInventors: Jean M. Fedeli, Hubert Jouve, Joel Magnin, Christian Pisella
