Abstract: A non-conductive magnetic shield material is provided for use in magnetic shields of semiconductor packaging. The material is made magnetic by the incorporation of ferromagnetic particles into a polymer matrix, and is made non-conductive by the provision of an insulating coating on the ferromagnetic particles.
Abstract: Various embodiments include, for example, a noise suppression filter for a power-delivery network (PDN). In one exemplary embodiment, a capacitor device, which may be used as at least a portion of the noise suppression filter, includes a first conductive plate and a second conductive plate with a dielectric material formed between the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate. A floating conductive fill layer is formed within the dielectric material and between the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate. Other embodiments of capacitors, and methods of forming the capacitor, are disclosed.

Abstract: The object is to provide a thin film having high barrier properties and high translucency with no safety and health problems, which is capable of suppressing degradation due to moisture, oxygen and carbon dioxide gas and degradation due to the diffusion of impurities such as alkali metals and alkali earth metals, a deposition apparatus of the thin film, and products coated with the thin film by the deposition apparatus. Another object is to provide an extended usable range of the products of an environmentally friendly biodegradable material and a prolonged quality preservation period. The feature is that a single layer or laminated layer of a layer expressed by AlNxOy or layer expressed by AlxNy is deposited (coated) over the inner surface of a packaging film. The single layer or laminated layer thereof has high translucency, being capable of enhancing the barrier properties against moisture, oxygen and carbon dioxide gas, the heat resisting properties, and the mechanical strength.

Abstract: A composite material exhibiting at least one of a negative effective permittivity and a negative effective permeability for incident radiation at an operating wavelength is described. The composite material comprises a dielectric layer generally parallel to a dielectric layer plane, and further comprises a first plurality of nanowire pairs disposed in the dielectric layer. Each of the first plurality of nanowire pairs comprises substantially parallel conductive nanowires of short length and separation relative to the operating wavelength. Each of the first plurality of nanowire pairs is substantially coplanar with a first plane substantially parallel to the dielectric layer plane.

Abstract: A magnetic recording medium for heat-assisted magnetic recording includes a magnetic data storage layer having magnetic grains separated by grain boundary phases. The grain boundary phases have a higher thermal conductivity than a thermal conductivity of the magnetic grains. The magnetic recording medium further includes a heat sink layer and one or more intermediate layers disposed between the magnetic data storage layer and the heat sink layer. Each of the one or more intermediate layers has crystalline phase grains separated by grain boundary phases. The grain boundary phases have a higher thermal conductivity than a thermal conductivity of the crystalline phase grains. The grain boundary phases in both the magnetic data storage layer and the intermediate layers provide high thermal conductivity conduits for dissipating heat from the magnetic data storage layer to the heatsink layer.
Abstract: In a thin-film magnetic head having a multilayered film developing a magnetoresistive effect, which is present between an upper shielding layer and a lower shielding layer both formed above an AlTiC substrate, a recess for defining the lower shielding layer is formed in an underlayer present on a surface of the AlTiC substrate, and a lower shielding layer made of NiFe is provided in the recess. A SiO2 film is interposed between the underlayer and the lower shielding layer.
