  • Method of manufacturing a 1-inch diameter glass substrate for a magnetic disk
    Patent number: 6314764
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a 1-inch diameter glass substrate for a magnetic disc in which a plate glass is press molded using a mold formed of a super-hard material and having a surface of a prescribed roughness. Ion implantation using nitrogen ions is performed on the surface of the mold, after which ion implantation using palladium ions, platinum ions, and carbon ions is performed in the order given. Finally, the surface of the mold is coated with a graphite or amorphous diamond-like carbon coating.

  • Surface reforming method of a metal product
    Patent number: 6136385
    Abstract: A surface reforming method of a metal product, wherein a platinum film is formed on the surface of a metal product by injecting onto that surface a nitrogen ion, a carbon ion and a platinum ion in that order, and then injected onto said platinum film a second platinum ion with the aim of improving the exfoliation resistance of the platinum film being formed on the metal surface, and the abrasion resistance of the surface.
