Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a texture apparatus and a texture processing method, and more particularly to the above apparatus and processing method using a laser beam.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a magnetic disk device, in order to stably maintain a minute air gap between the magnetic disk and the magnetic head, the magnetic head comes into contact with the surface of the magnetic disk at the time of stop and stops. A so-called contact start stop (CSS) system is adopted in which the head slides on the surface of the magnetic disk and runs floating. The texture processing is processing for forming minute projections (streak patterns) on the surface of the magnetic disk substrate, and is performed to obtain good CSS characteristics and the like.

Conventionally, the above-mentioned texture processing has mainly employed mechanical grinding using a polishing tape coated with abrasive particles dispersed in a binder or a slurry in which abrasive particles are dispersed. However, in recent years, due to the downsizing of magnetic disk devices, the motors used have become smaller, and the torque during driving tends to decrease. Therefore, the conventional texturing method cannot sufficiently reduce the contact area, and the sticking force of the head on the disk surface at the time of stop exceeds the torque of the motor, causing a sticking phenomenon that hinders starting.

In addition, the flying height of the head tends to decrease in order to improve the recording density, and accordingly, the texture processing applied to the CSS zone is required to have a low and uniform height. However, it is difficult to control the uniformity and the processing height in the conventional texturing by mechanical grinding, and it is not possible to follow the recent demands.

Therefore, as an alternative method, for example, US Pat. No. 5,062,021 proposes texture processing using a Q-switched YAG laser beam having a short pulse width and a large output. This method is a method of forming a crater-shaped uneven projection composed of a melted hole portion and an annular rim portion around which the hole portion is raised due to surface tension and solidified.

The texture processing using a laser beam is easier to control the absolute height and its uniformity than the processing by mechanical polishing, and is considered to be a promising processing method in the future. However, the above-mentioned U.S. patent does not consider a processing apparatus that actually takes industrial production into consideration.

The laser beam generator is expensive, the laser beam processing requires a long time, and in general, the texture processing needs to be processed over a width of several mm to several tens of mm at a pitch of several mμ. Therefore, although it is necessary to rotate the magnetic disk substrate by several hundreds by the end of processing, the above-mentioned U.S. patent specification does not propose a practical device with improved productivity. Further, the textured substrate obtained by the proposed method is insufficient for the sticking problem between the magnetic disk and the magnetic head.

[0008]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a texture apparatus which utilizes a laser beam and improves processing productivity. Another object of the present invention is to provide a texture apparatus and a texture processing method that can simultaneously achieve good CSS characteristics and sticking characteristics and reduce the flying height of the magnetic head.

[0009]

That is, the first aspect of the present invention
Is a texture device used in a magnetic disk manufacturing process, and includes a plurality of substrate rotating mechanisms, a laser beam oscillator, a modulator for controlling ON / OFF of a laser beam from the oscillator, and a laser beam from the modulator. A plurality of laser beam splitters for splitting, a plurality of focusing mechanisms for irradiating each substrate surface rotatably supported by the plurality of substrate rotating mechanisms with each laser beam split by the laser beam splitter, the focusing The texture apparatus comprises a moving mechanism that relatively moves the mechanism and the plurality of substrate rotating mechanisms.

The second gist of the present invention is to use the above-mentioned texture device and to form a minute projection having a concave portion connected to the convex portion in the vicinity of the convex portion on the surface of the magnetic disk substrate at a rate of 10 per 1 mm 2. The present invention resides in a method of texturing a magnetic disk substrate, which is characterized by forming -10 8 pieces.

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. First, the texture device of the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram of an example of a texture device of the present invention.

The texture apparatus of the present invention is an apparatus for forming fine protrusions on the surface of a magnetic disk substrate, and in a preferred mode, the fine protrusions are formed at the same intervals in the CSS zone. As a substrate, a substrate called a substrate, that is, an Al alloy, for example, a substrate of Al—Mg alloy or the like is provided with a Ni—P electroless plating underlayer, and the underlayer is subjected to mirror finishing (polishing). Examples of the substrate include a processed substrate, a glass substrate, a silicon substrate, and the like, but other metal substrates such as copper and titanium, a carbon substrate, a ceramic substrate, and a resin substrate can also be used.

In the following description, the substrate is simply referred to for the sake of convenience of description. However, in addition to the above-mentioned substrate, the state after the base layer, the magnetic layer, the protective layer, the lubricant layer, and the like are provided on the substrate. However, the texture device according to the present invention can be used even in that process, and the substrate hereinafter means any one of the above states.

The texture device of the present invention comprises a plurality of substrate rotating mechanisms (10), (10) ..., Laser beam oscillator (1), and turning on / off the laser beam from the oscillator.
A modulator (2) for controlling, and a plurality of laser beam splitters (4), (4) for splitting a laser beam from the modulator.
..., a plurality of condensing mechanisms (5), (5), which irradiate each of the laser beams divided by the laser beam splitter onto the surface of each substrate rotatably supported by the plurality of substrate rotating mechanisms, It comprises a moving mechanism (6) for relatively moving the mechanism and the plurality of substrate rotating mechanisms (10), (10) .... In addition,
Three substrate rotation mechanisms (10) are illustrated, but the number is arbitrary.

The substrate rotating mechanism (10) is usually composed of a spindle motor, and the substrate (11) is supported by a rotating shaft of the spindle motor and is rotated a fixed number of times or rotated at a linear velocity. The number of rotations of the substrate is determined in consideration of productivity, but the number of rotations of the substrate is preferably 900 rpm or more, particularly preferably 1800 rpm or more, 360
0 rpm or more is most preferable. When the rotation axis of the spindle motor is deviated, the surface deviation becomes large, the focus is difficult to focus, the projection shape varies, and in some cases the desired projection shape cannot be obtained. Therefore, the deviation is preferably less than ± 25 μm. .

As the laser beam oscillator (1), a gas laser is preferable, a CO ₂ gas laser, an Ar gas laser, a YAG laser capable of continuous oscillation, etc. are preferable, and an Ar gas laser is preferably used. The gas laser is more advantageous than the Q-switch YAG laser, the excimer laser, or the like in that the phases are aligned and the beam spot can be easily focused, so that a sharp projection shape can be formed.

As for the wavelength of the laser, it is usually easier to obtain a high output in the visible region. The Ar gas laser beam typically has a wavelength of 488 nm or 514.5 nm. In the case of directly irradiating the glass substrate, a relatively small output in the ultraviolet region, for example, 350 nm of argon, FHG (fourth harmonic gen) is used.
An YAG laser of 266 nm through a laser is used.

From the laser beam oscillator (1) to the substrate (1
The laser beam with which the surface of 1) is irradiated is preferably controlled to have energy capable of forming a minute projection having a shape in which a concave portion continuous with the convex portion is provided in the vicinity of the convex shape.

The modulator (2) is preferably capable of high speed modulation. Also, the rise time is 50 ns
In the following, the pulse width including the rising time and the falling time is preferably 50 ns to 2 μs. If the pulse width is less than 50 ns, no protrusions are formed or it is difficult to form a protrusion having a desired shape. If the pulse width exceeds 2 μs, the area of the protrusion tip becomes large, and the CSS characteristics tend to deteriorate.

In addition, ON /
It is preferable that it can be turned off. Since the rise time of the modulator affects the sharpness of the protrusion, when a modulator having a long rise time is used, a protrusion having a large contact area with the head is formed. An electro-optic modulator (EOM) is preferable as a modulator used in such a modulator. The electro-optic modulator is a high-speed modulator (ON / ON) up to several hundred Mbps.
OFF) is possible. Also, analog modulation can be performed when the signal is on.

The modulation frequency is 0.5 to 10 MHz
Is preferable, and 0.5 to 5 MHz is particularly preferable. If the modulation frequency is less than 0.5 MHz, the contact area between the protrusion and the head becomes large. If the frequency exceeds 10 MHz, adjacent protrusions interfere with each other, making it difficult to form independent protrusions. Also,
Pulse width (irradiation time required to form one protrusion)
Is preferably 40 nsec to 100 μsec, 50 ns
ec to 2 μsec is particularly preferable. As the pulse width increases, the projections continue and the contact area with the head increases.

As the laser beam splitter (4), there is usually used a so-called beam splitter cube in which two right-angle prisms are used, and one of the oblique sides is coated with a semipermeable film to join the oblique sides. Then, by using a plurality of laser beam splitters having different division ratios, the amount of laser beam applied to each substrate can be adjusted to be constant.

An objective lens is used as the light collecting mechanism (5), and is usually used in combination with an autofocus (AF) system described later. The last condensing mechanism (5)
Is configured as a combination of a total reflection mirror and an objective lens, and the condensing mechanism (5) before that is configured as a combination of the laser beam splitter (4) and the objective lens described above.
Further, it is preferable that a beam expander is provided in front of the objective lens to widen the beam diameter to an extent equal to the effective diameter of the objective lens in order to form a clear spot. Usually, the effective diameter of the lens is about 50 to 80% of the lens diameter.

Since the feature of the texture apparatus of the present invention is to provide minute protrusions uniformly, the absolute value, uniformity and sharpness of the spot diameter of the laser beam applied to the substrate are important factors. The spot diameter is preferably 0.2 to 4 μm, and more preferably 0.2 to 2 μm.
Here, the spot diameter represents the diameter of a circle in which the intensity decreases to "one square of e" of the maximum intensity at the center of the light.
In addition, when the numerical aperture of the objective lens is NA and the wavelength of the laser beam is λ, NA is 0.3 to 0.8 and λ /
It is preferable that NA satisfies 0.16 to 3.3.

Further, in view of the sharpness of the spot, the focal length of the objective lens is 20 mm or less, especially 5 mm.
The following is preferred. In such a case, since the substrate and the objective lens are arranged very close to each other, it is possible to perform stable attachment / detachment and rotation of the substrate and high-speed rotation, and do not hinder the moving movement of the objective lens. It is necessary to have a shape.

That is, the distance between the upper surface of the substrate and the tip of the rotation axis of the spindle is 0.8 or less, preferably 0.6 or less, with respect to the distance (working distance) between the upper surface of the substrate and the objective lens. It is preferable that it overhangs. Working distance is usually 10
mm or less. In addition, it is preferable to provide a cutout portion in the vicinity of the back surface of the substrate about the rotation axis of the spindle to compensate for stable movement of the objective lens.

Further, it is preferable to use an aspherical lens as the objective lens because the weight of the lens can be reduced, the light transmittance can be increased, and the working distance can be widened. Since the distance between the objective lens and the substrate fluctuates due to the waviness of the substrate or the axial deviation of the spindle, it is preferable that the light condensing mechanism further has an autofocus (AF) mechanism in order to keep the spot diameter constant.
In particular, the response frequency of the autofocus mechanism is preferably 90 Hz or higher.

When the response frequency becomes slow, the size of the beam spot varies, and the size and height of the protrusion become uneven. Further, as the AF mechanism, it is preferable to improve the control efficiency by utilizing the surface blurring learning function, that is, the track record of the AF control in the portion where the laser irradiation is performed, for example, in feedforward synchronization with the rotation of the disk for the AF control. .

As the moving mechanism (6), for example, a linear slider is preferably used. In FIG. 1, as a method of relative movement of the light collecting mechanism (5) and the substrate rotating mechanism (10), a configuration of moving the light collecting mechanism (5) side is illustrated. That is, the plurality of light collecting mechanisms (5), (5) ...
It is mounted on the base linear slider (6).

Then, a plurality of substrate rotating mechanisms (5),
(5) ... Are simultaneously moved at a constant speed. If the relative movement speed of the light collecting mechanism and the substrate is too slow, it is difficult to improve the CSS characteristics, and if it is too fast, the contact area between the protrusion and the head becomes large, so the range is set to a good CSS characteristic range. Usually, the relative scanning speed on the irradiation surface of the beam is usually 2 m / s or more, and particularly 2 to 50 m / s.

On the other hand, as another structure in which the substrate rotating mechanism (10) and the light collecting mechanism (5) are moved relative to each other, the substrate rotating mechanism (10) may be moved, or a combination thereof may be used. May be.

Returning to FIG. 1, the moving mechanism (6) can also be moved at a required low speed over the entire process of performing texture processing on each of the plurality of substrates (11), (11). However, usually, one board (1
When moving from 1) to another substrate (11), it is moved at an accelerated speed. And such speed control is
It is also possible to mount another moving mechanism on the moving mechanism (6), one of which moves between the substrates, and the other of which moves for texture processing.

When the moving mechanism (6) is used only when moving from one substrate (11) to another substrate (11), another moving mechanism (6) equipped with the condensing mechanism (5) is used.
It is necessary to use a) and to texture one substrate (11) by its movement. Other moving mechanism (6
The linear slider described above is also preferably used as a).

In the present invention, it is possible to form minute protrusions not only on the front surface of the magnetic disk substrate but also on the back surface thereof. Such an embodiment is, for example, as shown in the figure, a laser beam splitter (7) before the first focusing mechanism (5),
A total reflection mirror (8) and a condensing mechanism (9) configured as a combination of the total reflection mirror and an objective lens are arranged, and the laser beam emitted from the laser beam oscillator (1) is split and split. It can be realized by irradiating the back surface of the substrate which is rotatably supported by the substrate rotating mechanism with the laser beam.

In the illustrated example, the first substrate (1
Laser beam irradiation is performed only on the back surface of 1), but by arranging a plurality of condensing mechanisms having the same structure as the above on the back surfaces of the substrates, microprojections are simultaneously formed on both surfaces of the plurality of substrates. Can be formed.

The texture apparatus of the present invention is provided with a timing control section (3) for controlling the modulation timing of the laser beam as means for forming fine projections on the surface of the substrate in the same pattern or with a constant pattern at different intervals.

That is, for example, when the minute protrusions are formed at the same intervals which are usually adopted, the moving mechanism (6) and the substrate rotating mechanism (10) are operated at a constant speed to move the substrate (11) at a constant rotation speed and a constant speed. When moved, the distance between the minute protrusions formed on the substrate surface becomes wider toward the outer circumference. Therefore, the timing control unit (3) confirms the position of the substrate, controls the modulation timing (irradiation time) of the laser beam based on the signal, and keeps the intervals of the minute projections formed on the substrate surface constant.

The timing control section (3) is composed of a computer, a position detecting mechanism, a necessary interface and the like. As the position detecting mechanism, for example, a laser displacement meter, an encoder or the like can be used. The speed of the moving mechanism (6) and the substrate rotating mechanism (10) may be controlled without controlling the modulation timing of the laser beam.

In order to make the projection shape uniform,
The sweep distance of the laser spot based on the relative movement of the focusing mechanism and the substrate rotating mechanism is preferably set to be constant even when the inner and outer circumferences of the disk-shaped substrate, that is, the position in the radial direction changes. In this case, it is preferable to change the pulse width or the rotation speed of the substrate according to the irradiation position.

In an apparatus in which the spindle rotation speed is constant, a means for measuring the radial position, and a pulse for making the sweep distance of the laser spot constant for each radial position measured by the measuring means It is configured by means for calculating the width and means for modulating the laser beam based on the calculation result.

Further, in a device having a constant pulse width,
A means for measuring the radial position, a means for calculating the spindle rotational speed for keeping the sweep distance of the laser spot constant for each radial position measured by the measuring means, and a laser beam based on the calculation result. It is constituted by a means for modulating.

Next, the texture processing method of the present invention using the above-mentioned texture device will be described.

Form.

First, a plurality of substrate rotating mechanisms (10), (1
0) ... Set the substrates (11), (11) ... and move the substrate (11) at a constant rotation speed and a constant speed by the constant speed operation of the moving mechanism (6) and the substrate rotating mechanism (10). .
Then, the laser beam from the laser beam oscillator (1) is converted into a pulse laser by the modulator (2), and a plurality of laser beam splitters (4), (4) ... And a plurality of focusing mechanisms, (5), (5) ... through each substrate (11), (1

The output of the laser beam is important as a condition for forming a minute projection having a shape in which a concave portion connected to the convex portion is formed in the vicinity of the convex shape. The specific laser beam output varies depending on the surface material of the substrate and the like, but is usually 50 to 2000 mW, preferably 50 on the irradiation surface.
A light source in the range from 1000 mw to 50 mW to 400 mW is particularly preferred. If it is less than 50 mW, it is difficult to form protrusions, and if it exceeds 2000 mW, it becomes difficult to perform texture processing having excellent CSS characteristics. Further, it is preferable to use a laser capable of continuous output.

The spot diameter of the laser beam is 0.
The range of 2 to 4 μm is preferable, and the range of 0.2 to 1.5 μm is particularly preferable. The number of rotations of the substrate is determined in consideration of productivity, but the number of rotations of the substrate is usually 900 to 7
The moving speed of the substrate is 200 rpm, and the moving speed of the moving mechanism (linear slider) is 0.03 to 60 mm / se.
It is preferable to select from the range of c.

According to the texture processing method of the present invention, by adopting the above conditions, the height of the protrusions (projections) on the surface of the magnetic disk substrate is 1 to 100 nm, and the protrusions are present in the vicinity of the protrusions. It is possible to form 10 to 10 ⁸ microscopic protrusions having a shape having a concave portion continuous with each portion per 1 mm ² . Above all, it is possible to obtain a comparatively steep one having an average value of the area of the figure surrounded by the contour line at a height of 1 nm below the apex of each protrusion of 1 μm ² or less. As a result, good CS
