  • Multilayer coil assembly and method of production
    Patent number: 7257882
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a thin-film coil assembly. The coil assembly includes a substrate, at least two layers of conductive material on top of the substrate, and one layer of insulating material between the two layers of conductive material, wherein the two layers of conductive material are in contact with two interconnects, respectively, which extends substantially vertical to the substrate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 22, 2006
    Date of Patent: August 21, 2007
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Alexandra Welzel, Marcus Breuer, Guenther Crolly, Michael Haag, Manfred Jung, Rolf Schaefer
  • MAGNETIC ENCODER SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20070019336
    Abstract: A magnetic encoder system according to one embodiment includes a magnetic sensor mounted on a first substrate above a magnetic medium, the magnetic medium carrying at least one magnetic track, the sensor detecting changes in the magnetic track during a relative movement between the sensor and the magnetic medium. The first substrate is provided with a second substrate rotatably engaging the magnetic medium.

  • FABRICATION OF 3D ROUNDED FORMS WITH AN ETCHING TECHNIQUE
    Publication number: 20040265749
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method to build rounded forms on a substrate by means of a masking layer covering at least parts of a substrate by applying the masking layer in a predetermined thickness to the substrate, such that the layer fixedly adheres to the substrate, performing a photo step, developing the masking layer, contracting the masking layer when adhering to the substrate by an irreversible shrinking process with predefined process control parameters, performing the etching process with a shrunk masking layer and etching at least in part through the shrunk masking layer.
