Patent number: 10482908Abstract: An apparatus comprises a laser diode configured to generate light during a write operation. A slider comprises a near-field transducer (NFT) and an optical waveguide. The slider is configured for heat-assisted magnetic recording and to communicate the light to the NFT via the waveguide. A writer heater of the slider is configured to receive power during the write operation. A thermal sensor is situated at or near an air bearing surface of the slider. The thermal sensor is configured to produce a sensor signal in response to sensing back-heating from the medium while the NFT generates heat during a write operation. Circuitry, coupled to the thermal sensor, is configured to compare the sensor signal to a threshold and generate an output signal indicative of degradation of NFT performance in response to the sensor signal exceeding the threshold.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2018Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: Seagate Technology LLCInventors: Riyan Mendonsa, Jon D.

Patent number: 10408674Abstract: An apparatus comprises a light source configured to generate light, and a modulator coupled to the light source and configured to modulate the light above a predetermined frequency. A slider is configured for heat-assisted magnetic recording and to receive the modulated light. A resistive sensor is integral to the slider and subject to heating by absorption of electromagnetic radiation and conduction of heat. Measuring circuitry is coupled to the resistive sensor and configured to measure a response of the resistive sensor due to absorbed electromagnetic radiation and not from the heat conduction. The measuring circuitry may further be configured to determine output optical power of the light source using the measured resistive sensor response.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2019Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: Seagate Technology LLCInventors: James Dillon Kiely, John Charles Duda, Patrick Carl Fletcher, Andrei Dorobantu, Jon D.

A report may be communicated to the payee, the report including a record of the plurality of financial transactions as a set of documents corresponding to the payee preference. In some cases, the report may include at least a portion of the remittance information associated with the plurality of financial transactions deposited into an account associated with the payee.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2018Date of Patent: July 23, 2019Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Janet M.
