Definitions
- a strain-insensitive magnetic storage device which has uniform magnetic properties and may be economically produced by mass production techniques is formed by interposing an intermediate layer of copper with a randomly-oriented fine-grained surface between a Phosphor-bronze or a copper-beryllium substrate and a saturable ferromagnetic coating.
- the present invention relates generally to magnetic circuit devices and more particularly to a new and improved process for fabricating new and improved magnetic data-storage devices which are capable of being utilized by electronic computers and data processors for information storage and logical purposes.
- various types of magnetic datastorage devices having an elongated physical configuration are disclosed therein which possess an easy or preferred direction of magnetization which is oriented at a predetermined angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the device. It is also demonstrated therein that coincident current techniques may be successfully utilized to effect the storage of information in the preferred flux path established in the device, regardless of the angular orientation of the preferred flux path with respect to its longitudinal axis.
- a preferred angular flux path having substantially any predetermined orientation; viz, by producing a quiescent torsional stress anisotropy in a ferromagnetic coating which is electrodeposited on an elongated, electrically conductive substrate, which stress causes a preferred path of magnetization to be established within the coating along the path of greatest compression; by applying a torsional stress to the ends of an elongated, elec- 3,330,631 Patented July 11, 1967 trically conductive substrate prior to and during elecferromagnetic coating thereon, and
- One object of the present invention is to devise a new and improved process for fabricating magnetic data storage devices which are capable of being utilized by electronic computers and data processors for information storage and logical purposes.
- Another object is to devise new and improved magnetic data-storage devices that have consistently uniform magnetic properties throughout their recording area from one device to another.
- Still another object of the present invention is to devise new and improved magnetic data-storage devices which are readily adaptable to mass production techniques using the process of the present invention.
- a more specific object of the present invention is to devise new and improved magnetic data-storage devices which may be economically fabricated by mass production techniques and which have consistently uniform magnetic properties from one device to another and are readily adaptable to be utilized by electronic computers and data processors for information storage and logical purposes.
- such new and improved magnetic data-storage devices are fabricated by a process which comprises the steps of, first,
- the core or supporting substrate, onto which the magnetic deposit is to be formed is desirably a stiff, resilient, and wire-like filament of either Phosphor-bronze or copper-beryllium alloy and has a circular cross-section of an average diameter in the order ing thereon, the substrate is first rigorously cleansed by any of the conventional alkaline-acid-water methods well known to the plating industry. For example, immersion in a commercially available alkaline solution known as Shipleys Alkaline Cleaner has been found to give excellent results.
- the substrate be subjected to a conventional cathodic alkaline type of cleaning action in which the substrate is immersed as a cathode in an alkaline solution comprising approximately 45 grams/ liter of a commercially available cleaner known as Oakites Cleaner No. 91 and approximately 12 grams/liter of a commercially available cleaner known as Oakites Cleaner No. 91A.
- the substrate is maintained in the cleaning solution for a period of from 7 to seconds and operated as a cathode at a current density of from to amperes per square foot.
- the substrate Upon emergence from the cleaning bath, the substrate is thoroughly rinsed with distilled water and then immersed in an 18% to 50% hydrochloric acid solution for a period of approximately 7 to 10 seconds in order to remove any oxide layer existing on its surface, and also to activate the surface. Thereafter, the substrate is again thoroughly rinsed with distilled water.
- the substrate is subjected as a cathode to electrolytic action in an aqueous plating solution maintained at room temperature and containing approximately 150 grams/ liter of copper sulfate (CuSO -5H O) and approximately grams/liter of concentrated sulfuric acid (H 80
- CuSO -5H O copper sulfate
- H 80 concentrated sulfuric acid
- the substrate is maintained immersed in the plating solution for approximately 50 seconds and operated as a cathode at a current density of approximately 227 amperes per square foot, during which time a finegrained nucleated copper coating is electrodeposited on the surface thereof.
- the grain size of the copper coating has been found to be in the order of from .1 to 1.0 micron and to be randomly oriented and therefore isotropic.
- the particular method just described for depositing a fine-grained, randomly-oriented copper coating onto the surface of the supporting substrate, prior to deposition of the ferromagnetic deposit thereon is not critical, and any of the various other wellknown methods of copper flashing may be used with equal success.
- the only restriction is that the copper coating be fine-grained, randomly-oriented, and of a thickness sufficient to effectively remove all epitaxial effects of the depositing surface of the supporting substrate.
- Undesirable epitaxial effects arise in a ferromagnetic coating that is deposited on wire substrates that are manufactured by conventional manufacturing methods, since the microscopic surface characteristics of these substrates have an elongated orientation.
- the ferromagnetic coating is deposited over the randomly-oriented copper coating of the present invention, which is deposited directly on the wire substrate, these undesirable epitaxial effects do not arise in the ferromagnetic coating.
- An exemplary aqueous electrolytic plating solution capable of being utilized for effecting the deposition of a ferromagnetic coating onto the copper-coated substrate is made up of the following constituent concentrations measured in grams/ liter of aqueous solution:
- the above plating solution has been prepared and its pH adjusted to approximately 8.6 by the addition of approximately 40 milliliters/liter of ammonium hydroxide (NH OH), its temperature is preferably adjusted to approximately 88 to 90 degrees centigrade, even though the plating operation may be successfully carried out at room temperature; thereafter, the plating solution is introduced into a plastic-lined plating tank or an equivalent inert container.
- NH OH ammonium hydroxide
- the process be a continuous one in which the cathodic substrate is drawn through the plating solution with minimum tension exerted thereon and at a constant speed, with electrical contact at all times maintained therewtih in order that the desired constant plating current may be supplied thereto.
- the substrate be centrally encompassed at all times while in the plating solution by a helicallyshaped anode having a coil diameter of approximately one inch and composed of a molybdenum wire approximately 50 mils in diameter.
- the ferromagnetic element On emergence from the plating bath, the ferromagnetic element is rinsed and dried and is then ready to be 0perated as a coincident current twister type of data-storage device in the following manner:
- the substrate, along with the ferromagnetic coating, is simultaneously stretched and twisted, and its ends are thereafter held in a fixed position.
- an easy direction of magnetization is established in the coating and is oriented from a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the substrate to one of substantially helical configuration about the body of the substrate and throughout the length in the same manner as the threads of a screw. Due to the fact that the ferromagnetic coating has been found to possess a substantially high positive and negative magnetic remance and a substantially rectangular hysteresis loop, selected length portions of the coating, in the direction of twist, are allowed to attain one or the other of the two stable states; namely, a residual positive or negative magnetic remanence.
- a magnetic field of i H oersteds switches selected length portions from one remanent state to another, whereas a field of H/2 oersteds produces only negligible changes in the residual magnetic remanence.
- a plurality of similar coils are separately wound about the coated wire-like substrate and are positioned in a spaced side-by-side relationship with respect to one another to define a corresponding plurality of helical-path length portions of saturable ferromagnetic material.
- Storage of hinary information in a select length portion of the coating is accomplished by sending a current impulse of halfselect magnitude down the conductive substrate and simultaneously sending a second current impulse of halfselect magnitude into the select coil, in such directions that the vector summation of the magnetic fields produced by the two coincident currents is equal in magnitude to i H oersteds and is oriented in the same direction as the direction of twist, and hence in the same direction as the easy direction of magnetization of the coating.
- the corresponding coil is energized with a fullselect current impulse to individually develop a magnetic field of H oersteds in the opposite direction from the magnetic field developed during storage of the function.
- an electrical signal is or is not available across the ends of the substrate, depending upon whether the binary information 1 or 0 had previously been established in that particular length portion of the coating, as represented by its remanent state of magnetization.
- the magnetic devices fabricated in accordance with the present invention in addition to possessing the desirable magnetic properties listed above, have also been found to possess extremely uniform magnetic properties along their entire length, which properties are reproducible from one device to another. Consequently, the plating process used to produce the magnetic data-storage devices of the present invention is ideally suited to be operated as a continuous plating process in which the Wire-like substrate is initially stored on a suitable reel in lengths of several hundred feet or more and is continuously fed therefrom through the various previously-described cleaning and plating solutions, thereby mass-producing the magnetic devices and thus maintaining their cost at a minimum.
- a magnetic data storage device comprising a stiff, resilient, and wire-like substrate of an alloy of Phosphorbronze or copperberyllium, the substrate having an average diameter on the order of 5 to mils and having a substantially uniform structural cross-section throughout a major portion of its length, and a saturable ferromagnetic claim 1 wherein the substrate is References Cited UNITED STATES PATENTS 2,474,038 6/1949 Davignon 29-1963 2,945,217 7/1960 Fisher et al. 204-43 X 3,031,648 4/1962 Haber et a1.
