Patent number: 5631408Abstract: A method is provided for making crater shaped bumps on a magnetic disk. The crater shaped bumps have a diameter in the range of 10 to 25 .mu.m and a peripheral ridge with a height h.sub.r above a nominal surface of the calibration disk in the range of 75 to 120 nm. Close tolerance crater shaped bumps with this configuration can be made by impinging two or more pulses of laser energy on the same location of the disk. By increasing the number of pulses the height of the peripheral ridge progressively increases. By employing multiple pulses, the height of the peripheral ridge is increased while the diameter of the crater shaped bump stays substantially constant. Further, by employing multiple pulses diameters and heights of crater shaped bumps can be produced with close tolerances within a diameter range of 5 to 20 .mu.m and a height range of 2 to 120 nm.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 1996Date of Patent: May 20, 1997Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Peter M. Baumgart, Karl A. Flechsig, Michael F. Lee, Wing P. Leung, Ullal V. Nayak, Thao A. Nguyen, Timothy C. O'Sullivan, Andrew C. Tam

Patent number: 5528922Abstract: A method is provided for making crater shaped bumps on a calibration disk which can be used for calibrating a PZT slider, the PZT slider in turn being used for detecting predetermined asperities on a production run magnetic disk. The crater shaped bumps emulate predetermined asperities of production run magnetic disks and especially asperities which are undesirable and would cause the production run disk to be discarded after testing by the PZT slider. Crater shaped bumps which emulate undesirable asperities on current production runs of magnetic disks have a diameter in the range of 10 to 25 .mu.m and a peripheral ridge with a height h.sub.r above a nominal surface of the calibration disk in the range of 75 to 120 nm. Close tolerance crater shaped bumps with this configuration can be made by impinging two or more pulses of laser energy on the same location of a calibration disk. By increasing the number of pulses the height of the peripheral ridge progressively increases.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 1994Date of Patent: June 25, 1996Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Peter M.
