Problems solved by technology

However, regardless of the data island fabrication efficiency achieved with the dot mask method, the dot mask inherently limits the essential properties of the patterns that can be produced on the substrate.
Servo patterns are therefore made using a separate process that is time consuming, labor intensive and costly

Abstract

An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for utilizing a 'shadow mask' approach to fabricate servo patterns on high density patterned media. The apparatus may include a deposition mask having a plurality of apertures generated by a conventional lithographic process. Material may be deposited onto a substrate through the deposition mask apertures from at least one deposition source oriented at unique deposition angles. In this manner, each aperture may correspond to multiple deposition locations. Apertures may be precisely dimensioned and positioned to create servo pattern features from the resulting deposition locations. The deposition mask may also include a plurality of bit pattern apertures adapted to direct a material to a plurality of deposition locations on the substrate, the deposition locations forming a bit pattern concurrent with formation of a servo pattern.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to apparatus, methods and systems for defining patterns on substrates, and more particularly to apparatus, methods and systems for fabricating servo patterns on high density patterned media. Background technique [0002] Hard drives provide data storage for data processing systems in computers and servers, and are becoming increasingly common in media players, digital recorders, and other personal devices. Advances in hard disk drive technology have enabled users to store very large amounts of digital information on increasingly smaller disks, and to selectively retrieve and change portions of this information almost instantaneously. In particular, recent developments have simplified hard disk drive manufacturing while simultaneously yielding increased track densities, thus advancing the ability to store more data at reduced cost. [0003] In hard disk drives, rotating high-precision aluminum or glass disks are coated on ...
