Abstract: 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).

Abstract: 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.
