  • Applying bias voltage during formation of granular recording media
    Patent number: 8993073
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention relates to a perpendicular magnetic recording medium comprising (1) a substrate, (2) an interlayer comprising hexagonal columns and (3) a magnetic layer, wherein the magnetic layer is deposited applying a bias voltage to the substrate such that the magnetic layer comprises magnetic grains having substantially no sub-grains within the magnetic layer, and the magnetic layer has perpendicular magnetic anisotropy.
    Type: Grant

  • Online video and audio editing
    Patent number: 8270815
    Abstract: An online video and audio editing method and system can create edited final products by performing video and audio editing via a communication network. The system includes a server, which provides downloadable operator interface software; and a client terminal, which is connected with the server via a communication network. The client terminal downloads the operator interface software from the server to allow selection of target files, and generation of an editing result file by recording the editing information of each selected target file in a text format. The editing information is transmitted back to the server, and includes a priority order, a time to start playback, and a playback length of each selected target file. The server synthesizes all target files in accordance with the editing result file to create the edited final product.
