Magnetic Anisotropy and Thermal Stability of Ta-pinned Spin Valves

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
R A. Fry, Robert D. McMichael, John E. Bonevich, P J. Chen, William F. Egelhoff Jr., Chang H. Lee
It has recently been found that large uniaxial anisotropy fields in excess of 120 kA/m (1500 Oe) can be created in thin (3 nm to 5 nm) films of Co by obliquely sputtered Ta underlayers. This anisotropy can be used to pin the bottom film of a spin valve

Magnetic Combinatorial Thin-Film Libraries

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
Stephen E. Russek, William E. Bailey, G A. Alers
Magnetic combinatorial libraries have been fabricated to investigate complex magnetic thin-film systems and to provide test systems to develop on-wafer metrologies. The use of combinatorial materials techniques is a new and powerful method to develop and

Materials Reliability Division FY 2000 Programs and Accomplishments

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
F R. Fickett
The technical activities of the Materials Reliability Division during fiscal year 2000 are summarized. The Division has 23 research projects in the following eight program areas: Materials for Microelectronics (4): Materials for Wireless Communication (5)

Mathematics and Measurement

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
Ronald F. Boisvert, Michael J. Donahue, Daniel W. Lozier, Robert D. McMichael, Bert W. Rust
In this paper we describe the role that mathematics plays in measurement science at NIST. We first survey the history behind NIST's current work in this area, starting with the NBS Math Tables project of the 1930s. We then provide examples of more recent

Measurement Considerations for the Determination of Central Plant Efficiency

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
Stephen J. Treado, Todd W. Snouffer
Concerns about maintaining optimum operating conditions for central plants in order to minimize energy usage and cost have highlighted the need for accurate measruements of electrical power, fluid flow and temperature chillers and boilers. In particular

Measurements of Static Noise in Display Images

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
John W. Roberts, Edward F. Kelley
The appearance of noise on a display is an important usability issue. Sources of noise include electrical interference, display driver artifacts, resampling artifacts, transmission artifacts, compression artifacts, and any intrinsic noise artifacts
