Title: Jackson David Miller and Switchable Magnetic Data Storage

Introduction

Jackson David Miller is an inventor based in Wellington, New Zealand. His patent work concerns a switchable magnetic device designed for data storage, using layered rare-earth nitride alloys to create distinct magnetic states.

Latest Patents

Miller is associated with 1 patent, titled “Switchable magnetic device or dot for data storage.” The invention describes two ferromagnetic layers, each made from a rare-earth nitride alloy containing at least two lanthanide species, with a blocking layer positioned between them. Because the layers have different coercive fields, their magnetic alignments can be controlled independently. Their remanent magnetic moments are designed to confine the peripheral magnetic field in the anti-aligned state, enabling contrasting fields between aligned and anti-aligned states. This approach may support distinguishable magnetic states for data storage.
