  • Publication number: 20240105225
    Abstract: A controller of a magnetic disk device obtains, for each of a plurality of first position sets, a first distribution that is a radial distribution of differences between a target orbit of the magnetic head and an actual position of the magnetic head while correcting a disturbance synchronized with rotation of the magnetic disk by using correction amounts at a plurality of positions included in one of the plurality of first position sets. The controller performs weighting the first distribution according to a position in the radial direction and calculating an evaluation value based on the weighted first distribution for each of the plurality of first position sets. The controller selects a second position set from the plurality of first position sets based on the evaluation value. The controller records correction amounts at a plurality of positions included in the second position set by the magnetic head.

  • Publication number: 20230317839
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a protection film having an opening and covering a semiconductor layer, which is formed on a side of a surface of a substrate, on an opposite side of the substrate. An insulating film containing silicon is used for the protection film. A gate electrode is formed in the opening and on a side of a side surface of the semiconductor layer which faces a direction. An insulating film containing metal element is formed between the side surface of the semiconductor layer and the gate electrode. The exposure of the side surface of the semiconductor layer to a gas for dry etching for forming of the opening is suppressed by the insulating film. Furthermore, contact and a short circuit between the gate electrode and the side surface of the semiconductor layer are suppressed. As a result, deterioration in the performance of the semiconductor device is suppressed.
