Title: Innovations of Jennifer Ai-Ming Leung

Introduction

Jennifer Ai-Ming Leung is a prominent inventor based in Fremont, CA (US). She has made significant contributions to the field of magnetic write head technology, holding a total of 5 patents. Her work focuses on enhancing the efficiency and performance of magnetic storage devices.

Latest Patents

One of her latest patents is titled "Magnetic write head fabrication with integrated electrical lapping guides." This patent describes methods for fabricating magnetic write heads and electrical lapping guides (ELGs) using a split gap deposition process. The process involves a removal technique on a magnetic material to define a main write pole and a corresponding ELG. A first non-magnetic gap layer is deposited, followed by a mask and liftoff process to deposit an electrically conductive material on the first gap layer along the front edge of the ELG. A second non-magnetic gap layer is then deposited, and a shield is fabricated for the write pole.

Another notable patent is "Magnetic write head having helical coil with a fin structure for reduced heat induced protrusion." This invention features a magnetic write head with a write coil designed to dissipate heat away from the write head, minimizing thermal protrusion. The write coil is structured as a helical coil with upper and lower leads connected by electrically conductive studs. The leads extend beyond the studs to form heat-conducting fins that effectively conduct heat away from the write head.

Career Highlights

Jennifer has worked with several notable companies, including Hitachi Global Storage Technologies and HGST Netherlands. Her experience in these organizations has allowed her to develop and refine her innovative ideas in magnetic storage technology.

Collaborations

Throughout her career, Jennifer has collaborated with esteemed colleagues such as Edward Hin Pong Lee and Donald Giles Allen. These collaborations have contributed to her success and the advancement of her inventions.
