A Self Servo Writing Scheme for a MEMS Storage Device with Sub-Nanometer Precision
In the probe-based storage concept being pursued by IBM, a MEMS based micro-scanner is used to position the storage medium relative to the read/write probes. To achieve repeatable positioning over a large storage area, it is necessary to have medium-derived position information. Dedicated servo-fields are typically employed to obtain medium-derived position information. Sub-nanometer positionin...
متن کاملData Placement Based on the Seek Time Analysis of a MEMS-based Storage Device
Reducing access times to secondary I/O devices has long been the focus of many systems researchers. With traditional disk drives, access time is the composition of transfer time, seek time and rotational latency, so many techniques as to minimize these factors, such as ordering I/O requests or intelligently placing data, have been developed. MEMS-based storage devices are seen by many as a repl...
متن کاملAchieving Long-term Bias Stability in High-q Inertial Mems by Temperature Self-sensing with a 0.5 Millicelcius Precision
We present long-term bias drift compensation in high-quality (Q) factor MEMS gyroscopes using real-time temperature selfsensing. The approach takes advantage of linear temperature dependence of the drive-mode resonant frequency for selfcompensation of temperature-induced sense-mode drifts. The approach was validated by a vacuum packaged silicon quadruple mass gyroscope, with signal-to-noise rat...
متن کاملA Distributed Spin-Down Algorithm for an Object-Based Storage Device with Write Redirection
We present a distributed spin-down algorithm for conserving energy in an object-based storage device (OSD) cluster. It differs from traditional spin-down algorithms in that it is cooperative—the decision to spin-down an OSD considers not only its own internal state, but also the state of the other OSDs. Each OSD executes an instance of the spin-down algorithm and adapts to the overall workload....
متن کاملPrecision Mems Nano-cutting Device for Cellular Microsurgery
An important tool for biological research and microsurgery is a microdevice for the cutting and isolation of subcellular neuronal components such as axons and dendrites for analysis or microsurgery. We have fabricated an easy-to-use, inexpensive and robust MEMS device with a nanoscale cutting tool that performs highly reproducible cutting of axons and dendrites. The device consists of a knife w...
