Title: Koichiro Yamazki: Innovator in Magnetic Recording Technology

Introduction

Koichiro Yamazki is a notable inventor based in Kawasaki, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of magnetic recording technology. His innovative work has led to the development of a unique magnetic recording medium that enhances data storage capabilities.

Latest Patents

Yamazki holds a patent for a magnetic recording medium. This medium comprises a non-ferromagnetic substrate with two types of defects or irregularities formed along a circumferential direction. These defects have different center line average roughnesses. On this substrate, a non-ferromagnetic metal film and a Co alloy ferromagnetic film are formed by sputtering in that order. The ferromagnetic film features a crystal structure where the (200) plane is parallel to the substrate surface, and the <011> orientation is directed toward the circumferential direction. This orientation allows the C axis of the ferromagnetic film to align with the substrate's circumferential direction. The patent also describes a method for fabricating this magnetic recording medium, which involves specific distances between the substrate and the targets for the films, as well as heating the substrate to a temperature between 150°C and 300°C during the sputtering process.
