Sober room Bit outdated Very hot in the room (I turned of the heating)
Location: in the middle of the Ku-dam, 2 minutes from bus, U-Bahn and from the ka-de-we, and 2 minutes from the airport bus TXL, and good prices, Berliner Hof is the best place to stay in Berlin! In addition, rooms are kindly large, great beds and large bathroom. nice and rich breakfast.
No safes at room. No refrigerators or mini-bars at room. No air-condition, but weather was great and it wasn't needed.
having booked erroneously one more night than necessary, helpfully arranged free of charge cancellation in no time:-)
Hotel very central and in vicinity of UBahn and bus stop. Good internet, good breakfast, bed linen was changed 3 times in a week. Staff is excellent. English not a problem. Checking in and out was simple.
It lacked whiteness of toilet bowl. They could do with some bleach. The room was not overlooking the road but was inland. Somewhat different from the photo but was still OK. Had to ask to be supplied with a minibar and a kettle but was immediately supplied with. The hotel has a common entrance with a gym.
Berliner Hof Hotel is a good place to stay, good location if you want to do some shopping or check out the nightlife. Room was clean, no dust noticed and staff took good care of keeping it that way. It was convenient to have the toilet seperate
The room had automatic outside blinds that was no way to turn off though they stopped around dinnertime, there was manual control too but the auto took over. The street is busy and usually it's not a problem, but some evenings the young come out and rev their engines to the max. There was a incedent with a incect in the bathroom but the staff had all intentions to rectify that, even offering us another room. Those are only nitpicks and insignificant problems really and me saying this is only meant to save some people the surprise because I do recommend this hotel to anyone asking.
The hotel is located in the near of the U-Bahn in the city and the room is large enough for two person.
- excellent breakfast, - nice staff, - hotel's parking
-Location -Breakfast -Staff
-Cleanliness -Strange smell at 2nd floor (in the room as well)
large rooms location
not the best value
Good location close to ubahn and zoo. Friendly staff. Wonderful to have the summer festival market so close by.
Room wasn't cleaned, even though we switched our 'do not disturb' card over to 'please clean' by 11am.
it stunk at the corridor
Great location and the room was big and comfortable. Breakfast was good and parkingspace was great as well.
Hotel's stuff was phenomenal, so helpful. And breakfast was also good.
Bath water was so difficult to get to the right position, it was too cold or too hot.
Very good location. Good breakfast. Comfortable rooms.
The cleaning staff entered the room two times without knocking the door. The garbage trucks were noisy in the morning.
Location is just perfect in the mainstreet Tauenzien. Very near alot of buses subway to every courner of the city and loads of cafes restaurants and shopping. Good value for money...ordinary tourist level hotel but one of the best locations one can ask for. Excellent wifi!
Not so good with bathroom separated from WC as the bathroom lacks a waste basket. WC has though.
Very friendly, helpful, English speaking staff, excellent location. Facility to make tea/coffee with sink and frig.
Beds very hard. Automatic sun blinds made the room dark when activated.
Location to transport and shops. The breakfast was very good with a wide variety of choice of food to select.
The noise from the racing cars that of course you cannot control.
Location & big room & cleanliness & fantastic breakfast
Welcome at reception Entrance to the hotel
The room was spacious and comfortable. There was a toilet with sink, a separate kitchen area, a bathroom with sink and shower, a sleeping area and a separate area with a couch, long desk and comfortable easy chair. The staff were incredibly helpful and when my German slipped, they were thankfully very courteous and polite - helpfully switching over to English when needed. Checking-in and out was very simple and every request was dealt with in a timely and efficient manner. There was an excellent range of food and drink for breakfast, from cold meats and cheeses, several types of bread, muesli, rolled oats, cottage cheese, yoghurts, coffee, etc. A true continental breakfast! The hotel feels secure as soon as you arrive and is thankfully quiet, surprising as our room overlooked a very busy main street.
It was slightly odd having to share the same entrance as a 24-hour gym but I never felt unsafe or at risk.
Nice room, clean, comfortable, secure, very centrally located and nice breakfast!! And your staff are courteous and efficient
When you get to the hotel entrance its like walking into a gym or something a little bit sinister, there are absolutely no niceties. How about a few plants, a little background music, like old Berliner Luft? Maybe a few flowers?
Staff need to give more attention
The bath
Convenient location.
The dingy approach from the street was a bit off-putting - but the hotel was fine once you got to it.
The comfort room having a separate seating area & the small kitchenette were a bonus.
Would have liked a room with a balcony because the room was rather warm and if you opened the window - the noise of traffic meant you couldn't sleep.
Big light room, mini kichen.
Sofa was not so clean.
Staff - friendly and helpful Location - convenient transport connection from Zoo station, nice bicycle tours in Tiergarten nearby, shopping on Kudamm and around
No hot food except boiled eggs for breakfast

1 + 1 (+ 1) + Hot Water to Fill
September and October Books
At some point I should write about the books I stop reading. More often the problem's not in them, but in my being particular. There are some things that are perfectly fine that I don't like, and pretending they're rubbish isn't really useful.
We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves – Karen Joy Fowler (2013): Growing up, Rosemary Cooke had a brother and a sister, but now as a twenty-something college student she has neither, and it's the unraveling of the why and what happened that makes up much of this novel. It's a great read, and the secret's not withheld for more than a 100 pages, so it's not one of those books where you wish someone would just stop for a second and tell you what the big secret is.
Jump-Off Creek – Molly Gloss (1989): I loved this book. It's a Western about a widow that heads out to the Pacific Northwest and becomes a homesteader. Gloss can really dig in and excavate the present moment her character's experience. I got weepy when she read the letters from her mom.
Your House Is On Fire, Your Children All Gone – Stefan Kiesbye (2012): Another short novel that reads like comic strips straight from Edward Gorey's Amphigorey. The difference being that the asshole quotient has been turned way up to eleven. There's a lesson here. In a book where everyone behaves like an a-hole, the reader will know people will do horrible things at any time because they're a-holes, and that will rob the story of any and all tension. Overall a decent book, but at the end I couldn't muster more than a shrug. People are a-holes. Thanks for reminding me.
A Year In Marrakesh – Peter Mayne (1953): Expat Englishman in 1950s Marrakesh that decently articulates the fact that often the worst thing an expat can encounter is another expat. Also less than 200 pages and I felt like I lived more here in these pages than I did in plenty of other books that have longer page counts.
Authority – Jeff VanderMeer (2014): The second book in VanderMeer's Southern Reach trilogy, in Authority the Ballard meets the Strugatsky brothers of the first book shifts over to a weird spy thriller reminiscent of Stanislaw Lem in His Master's Voice and Chain of Chance.
I Never Promised You A Rose Garden – Joanne Greenburg (1964): Autobiographical novel about a precocious 16 year-old girl with a mental disorder in 1950s USA. Fascinating and heartbreaking. The main character constructs an elaborate fantasy world she uses as a coping mechanism against the real world, only to wind up tormented by her own creation.
The Other Side – Alfred Kubin (1908): A Gothic fantasy novel by expressionist illustrator Alfred Kubin, it influenced both Kafka and Peake, as well as provided a satire of all reactionary, idealistic utopias where one wealthy genius (or "man of ego"), heaves off to some isolated spot with his followers and impresses his will completely upon them to disastrous results. The kind of book you either love or hate. I loved it, but I enjoy a good, long slow train ride to decay and dissolution.
Trickster Travels: The Search for Leo Africanus – Natalie Zemon Davis (2006): Leo Africanus was a 16th Century Moroccan diplomat that was captured by Christian pirates and given to the Pope as a "gift". In Italy, Africanus converted to Christianity and wrote several books on African geography while serving as a translator of Arabic texts, and then German soldiers sacked Rome and he fled back to North Africa and became a Muslim again. A fascinating book about a man trying to navigate between two hostile ideological movements while respecting them both.
Dinner at Deviant's Palace – Tim Powers (1985): The myth of Orpheus set in a post-apocalyptic LA where an alien parasite has set itself up as the messiah. Fun and colorful.
The Collapse of Western Civilization: A View From the Future – Naomi Oreskes and Erik M. Conway (2014): A book from the 24th century outlining the collapse of Western Civilization in the 21st century due to an inability to apply the scientific knowledge we have regarding global warming because of our faith in free market capitalism. It's a short book, and worth the read.
Good Morning, Midnight – Jean Rhys (1938): Modernist novel about a woman returning to Paris after a suicide attempt. She's a lost soul, drinking too much and spiraling down, and the story's told in disjointed stream-of-consciousness fashion. There's a husband that left her, a dead baby, and a series of mistakes and bad decisions hovering around her like a cloud. While the final tragedy is kept off stage, by the novel's end you know nothing's going to be right again.
The Earth Moved: On the Remarkable Achievements of Earthworms – Amy Stewart (2004): Not just the best book I've ever read on the subject of earthworms, but the only book I've ever read on the subject of earthworms.
My Favorite Thing About Korea
I realized my favorite thing about living in South Korea. And I don't even think it's a South Korean thing, as a hold over to being a country not the size of the USA thing. Like if I lived in Ireland or Italy, I suspect I'd encounter the same thing. It was also what made me like living in Queens, NY. I know, Queens!
Anyway, what I like is that the city where I live, Pohang, retains the quality where a single pedestrian who is probably elderly determines how the city is designed. It's like if you took Betty White and made her a metric unit that measured urban accessibility. Okay, maybe not Betty White, maybe Jane Jacobs, but you get the idea.
Pohang is a kilojacobs city in that every neighborhood is self-sufficient. Within an easy walk of my house I have access to hardware stores, stationary stores, delis, grocery stores, a traditional market, and restaurants. It was something Joe Mitchell talked about in post-war New York where every neighborhood was a self-contained village. This single pedestrian is accommodated in other ways as well: lots of parks with places to sit down, a robust bus system, and cheap taxis. This is vastly different from the USA where the unit of urban measure is a family with an automobile, and therefore things can be spread out, the supermarket here, the school there, and your entertainment way over there. Public transportation is treated as a charity to be given to the unfortunate, and not as a tie that binds the city together.
Now, I am talking about a small city. I have no idea how Seoul compares, although even there I think it would conform to the model of Queens, NY as opposed to Detroit, MI. And like I said I don't think this is necessarily a Korean thing, some kind of "Wow. Confucianism dictates that you treat your elders with so much respect!" bull shit, as it is related to country-size. The USA has "Settling This Vast Empty Land" as a foundational myth, and it shows in most of our cities.
Fortunately for me, Korea's foundational myths don't seem to effect urban planning all that much.
It's Not That
"It's not that these things happen or even that one survives them, but what makes life strange is that they are forgotten."
- Jean Rhys, Good Morning, Midnight
That's one of the books I finished recently. It's pretty good if you like your modern novels on the short, impressionistic, and ultimately sad and depressing side. In fact if that's what you like, it's better than pretty good.
Now if only it had a wizard or some astronauts in it…
Welcome to Lazarus Sector!
Welcome to Lazarus Sector!
A resource rich galactic borderland, Lazarus Sector serves as the buffer between several interstellar polities and is littered with the ruins of past civilizations. Adventurers, outcasts, and criminals call Lazarus Sector home, hoping to get rich and score big, before their luck runs out.
Here are the big players in Lazarus Sector, although by no means is this every one. Countless organizations and cabals have their agents in the Sector.
The Illuminated: An expansionistic technocratic empire that serves a mysterious God-Emperor known as the Omnissiah, the Illuminated have aggressively pushed into Lazarus Sector and made dubious claims at sovereignty over the region.
The Morn: A once advanced human civilization that destroyed itself in ancient times, the Morn now exist as arrogant scavengers on the fringes of society.
Panoplian: The inhabitants of the Panoply Republic, a vast collection of worlds, cultures, and societies known for its open-minded attitudes and dismally slow political infrastructure.
The Union Worlds: A splinter group of Panoplian corporatists that bristled at the constant meddling of Republican bureaucracy. Their worlds are known for their advanced technologies and gross economic disparity. Pragmatists to the extreme, the Union Worlds are everyone's ally as long as the credits keep rolling in.
The game starts in Wendigo Station, a Union owned "free" station with lacks governmental oversight that orbits the ruined Morn world of Shard and serves as a crossroads to the Sector.
The group starts with a spacecraft. FTL travel is done via the use of "slipstreams routes". Known slipstream routes will be on the map. Unknown slipstream routes exist and are a valuable commodity. Who doesn't want to be the first trader to discover a lost world and fleece the poor souls for all they're worth before the competition arrives?
The first adventure will be a salvage operation as the crew tries to locate a lost Illuminated ship and reclaim its cargo.
It appears I'm running a space game for people here in town. Setting details are partially recycled from a few SWN games I ran last year and every SF RPG I've ever read ever.
This time around I'll try and be less bloodthirsty.
Three Novels To Grow On: A Thought Experiment
A thought experiment – every fantasy novel in the world has been destroyed. You have only been able to save three. From these a new fantasy genre will be born. What three novels are they?
I know two of mine, but I'm still trying to figure out the third.
In the meantime what are yours?
The Dead Enders vs. The Martians
Two weeks back I had a day off and ran a Fate Accelerated game. The picture above gives you some idea who the party were. The set-up was the PCs were senior citizens in a shitty rest home called Sunny Valley, and in the middle of an escape attempt stumbled onto a Martian plot to invade Earth. It was silly. I didn't completely know how to run the game (I'm pretty sure I tracked Stress wrong), but everyone had fun, and the oldsters saved the day. The party consisted of a retired detective, a military sharpshooter suffering from dementia, a hacker with ties to Canadian Separatists, and a former getaway car driver that operated a souped-up scooter. While prepping for the game I made some NPCs that either died or didn't get used. Here they are:
Dirk Ostergarten
High Concept: Elderly ex-biker gang member
Trouble: Trouble tends to find me.
Aspect 1: I've seen some shit.
Aspect 2: The Man's always trying to pin shit on me.
Aspect 3: Where did I put my glasses?
Stunts: Dirty Fighter
(Dirk can improvise hand to hand weapons)
Grundy Style
(Dirk knows Pennsyltuckian martial arts and gains a +2 when forcefully attacking.)
One More Stunt to be determined in game.
Careful: +2
Clever: +1
Flashy: +0
Forceful: +3
Quick: +2
Sneaky: +1
Refresh: 3
2 – Mild:
4 – Moderate:
6 – Severe:
Ada Morgan
High Concept: A Mean Old Witch
Trouble: You say I'm cruel like it's a bad thing.
Aspect 1: Ms. Taffy is my wittle sweetums.
Aspect 2: I've turned better men than you into toads.
Aspect 3: It's never too early for a drink.
Stunts: No one suspects an old lady.
(+2 to sneaky when bluffing and hiding.)
Hexes and curses
(+2 to careful when creating advantages)
Demon familiar
(once per session Ms. Taffy may attack)
Careful: +3
Clever: +2
Flashy: +1
Forceful: +0
Quick: +1
Sneaky: +2
Refresh: 3
2 – Mild:
4 – Moderate:
6 – Severe:
Now that work and grad school are both back up and running I don't know when I'll get the chance to run or play another game. Which is too bad since the summer game I ran here in town was fun, and ended on something of a cliff hanger with one character having a severe curse put on him.

Transparency advocates claimed a partial victory in the inclusion of $12.4 million for the flagship Electronic Government Fund in the omnibus spending package that is going before Congress for a vote on Dec. 16.
The eGov fund pays for high-profile open government and innovation initiatives including Data.gov, Federal IT Dashboard, Challenge.gov and Performance.gov. It is administered by the General Services Administration.
White House and GSA officials, along with open government groups, had pressed Congress to restore the eGov funding that lawmakers had dramatically cut earlier this year. The fund plunged to $8 million in fiscal 2011, down from $34 million in fiscal 2010.
Related coverage:
Are eGov programs worth the cost?
eGov on the chopping block
While a House fiscal 2012 spending package set aside an estimated $16 million level for the fund, Senate members allocated an estimated $7 million, and the $12.4 million was the final number negotiated in a joint conference and released on Dec. 15. House and Senate leaders have said they intend to vote on the package on Dec. 16.
The transparency advocates also cheered Congress' decision to keep the eGov funding as a separate line item. In the previous House and Senate bills, the eGov fund was combined with another fund for citizen services, making it difficult to estimate exact figures for each fund.
However, there is still some uncertainty about whether the terms for the eGov allocation are final and will be approved, according to Daniel Schuman, policy counsel for the Sunlight Foundation transparency group.
"Of course, this is not a done deal," Schuman wrote in the blog. "The bill we're looking at appears to be the negotiated agreement between the House and the Senate, although I've seen a report indicating that negotiations may still be ongoing."
Even so, he credited Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) and Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) for their efforts in partially restoring the eGov funding, as well as Twitter supporters of eGov funding.
"Sen. Carper and Rep. Issa deserve a lot of credit for fighting for these important transparency programs, as do our coalition partners (like OMB Watch) and thousands of people around the U.S. who have called on Congress to #savethedata," Schuman wrote on the foundation's blog on Dec. 15.
"While $12.4 million is far less than was available just a few years ago, it should be enough to keep these key programs alive and allow for a slow but steady rate of innovation," Schuman added.
"The eGov Fund is back to being a separate fund, which we're pleased with," added Gavin Baker, federal information policy analyst for OMB Watch, a watchdog group.
Previously, the eGov fund was slated to be combined with the Federal Citizen Services Fund. Under the new proposal, the citizen fund is maintained at $34 million, the same as in fiscal 2011 and slightly less than the $36 million it received in fiscal 2010, Baker said.
Keeping the funds separate would decrease the likelihood that one program would leach funds out of the other, Schuman added, and would help ensure that the eGov funds are used for their statutory purposes.

This application claims priority from provisional patent application Serial No. 60/180,443 filed Feb. 4, 2000, entitled �POLISHING MEMORY DISK SUBSTRATES WITH RECLAIM SLURRY� the entire disclosure of which is herein incorporated by reference.
The present invention relates generally to methods of surface treating a metal article, such as polishing a metal surface. The present invention has particular applicability in chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of non-magnetic substrates for use in manufacturing high area 1 density magnetic recording media exhibiting low noise and high coercivity.
Various metal platings, such as nickel (Ni) platings or deposits, enjoy technological applicability in various industries, such as the electronic, oil and gas, aerospace, machinery, automobile and magnetic recording media industries. For example, electroless Ni is employed in the metal finishing industry for various metal substrates, including steel, copper, aluminum and alloys thereof. Conventional electrolessly deposited Ni�P platings exhibit desirable physical and chemical properties, such as hardness, lubricity, appearance, and corrosion resistance. An amorphous Ni�P plating is conventionally applied to a non-magnetic substrate, such as an aluminum (Al) or an Al-alloy substrate in manufacturing magnetic recording media.
Thin film magnetic recording disks and disk drives are conventionally employed for storing large amounts of data in magnetizable form. For optimum consistency and predictability, it is necessary to maintain each transducer head as close to its associated recording surface as possible, i.e., to minimize the flying height of the head. Increasing speed and capacity requirements are forcing disk drives to become smaller and the flying height of the head to be even closer to the recording medium. At ever increasingly small distances, both the head and the disk must be very flat. Thus, the material used for the disk should be very stiff and amenable to a fine finish.
A typical longitudinal recording medium comprises a non-magnetic substrate, typically made of an aluminum (Al)-alloy, such as an aluminum-magnesium (Al�Mg)-alloy, plated with a continuous layer of amorphous nickel-phosphorus (NiP) substantially over the substrate. In completing the fabrication of a magnetic disk, a magnetic layer is typically sequentially deposited on each side of the nickel alloy. A protective overcoat layer and a lubricant topcoat are typically sequentially formed on the magnetic layer to complete the fabrication of the magnetic recording medium.
To provide the current smoothness required for a high areal density magnetic recording media exhibiting low noise and high coercivity, various layers on the substrate require polishing. For example, a polished Ni�P plating increases the hardness of the Al substrate, and serves as a suitable surface to provide a texture, which is substantially reproduced on the disk surface.
Conventional techniques for treating various metal surfaces, such as Al, Ni and Ni�P, include CMP for polishing and smoothening the surface of the metal. In conventional CMP techniques, a carrier assembly is rotated in contact with a polishing pad in a CMP apparatus. The polishing pad is mounted on a rotating turntable or platen, or moving above a stationary polishing table, driven by an external driving force. The metal coated substrates are typically mounted on the carrier or polishing head which provides a controllable pressure urging the substrate against the rotating polishing pad. Thus, the CMP apparatus effects polishing or rubbing movement between the substrate and the polishing pad while dispersing a polishing slurry, typically containing abrasive particles in a reactive solution typically comprising an oxidizer, to effect both chemical activity and mechanical activity while applying a force between the substrate and a polishing pad.
It is, however, extremely difficult to smoothen a hardened non-magnetic substrate without encountering severe surface defects, such as surface roughness, scratches and pitting. These surface defects are virtually impossible to recover without the expenditure of an inordinate, prohibitive amount of polishing time. Conventional smoothening methodology, therefore, cannot provide a non-magnetic substrate with a hardened surface having an average surface roughness (Ra) less than 4 Å to 5 Å.
Accordingly, a continuing need exists a for methodology enabling surface treatment, such as CMP, of metal surfaces with reduced defects and enhanced production throughput. There exists a particular need for methodology enabling the manufacture of magnetic recording media comprising a non-magnetic substrate having a smoothened surface.
An advantage of the present invention is an efficient method for surface treating a metal with reduced surface defects.
Another advantage of the present invention is a method of manufacturing a magnetic recording media comprising CMP the surface of a non-magnetic substrate with reduced surface defects and enhanced production throughput.
According to the present invention, the foregoing and other advantages achieved by a method of polishing a substrate having a metal surface. The method includes polishing a non-magnetic, metal coating, such as a nickel or nickel alloy, on a substrate suitable for the production of a magnetic recording medium. The method comprises: polishing a surface of the metal on the substrate with a colloidal slurry to reduce surface roughness; collecting the colloidal slurry used in polishing the surface of the metal; and combining unused colloidal slurry with the collected colloidal slurry to form a mixed slurry.
Embodiments of the present invention include polishing the surface of the metal on the substrate to a predetermined roughness with a non-colloidal polishing slurry prior to polishing the surface of the metal on the substrate with the colloidal slurry; collecting the colloidal slurry in a collection tank; separating the colloidal slurry from any settled metal residue and then adding the unused colloidal slurry to the separated colloidal slurry to form the mixed slurry and using the mixed slurry to polish additional metal surfaces.
The colloidal slurry of the present invention comprises an abrasive, with or without additional agents, dispersed in a medium. In an embodiment of the present invention, the colloidal slurry comprises abrasive particles having an average size of less than 1 micron dispersed in an aqueous medium with an oxidizing agent.
Another aspect of the present invention is a method of polishing substrates having a metal surface, the method comprising: polishing a first metal surface on a first substrate with a colloidal slurry to reduce surface roughness on the first metal surface of the first substrate; collecting the colloidal slurry used in polishing the first metal surface of the first substrate; and polishing a second substrate having a second metal surface with the collected colloidal slurry to reduce surface roughness on the second metal surface of the second substrate.
Embodiments include polishing both first and second metal surfaces each for about several seconds to about several minutes with the colloidal slurry and a CMP pad to an average surface roughness (Ra) of about 1.5 Å to about 3 Å; rinsing the polished surfaces with water; and drying the polished surfaces. A magnetic recording medium can then be fabricated from the polished substrate by forming a magnetic layer on the polished metal surface; forming a protective overcoat on the magnetic layer; and forming a lubricant topcoat on the protective overcoat.
Additional advantages of the present invention will become readily apparent to those skilled in this art from the following detailed description, wherein only the preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown and described, simply by way of illustration of the best mode contemplated for carrying out the present invention. As will be realized, the present invention is capable of other and different embodiments, and its details are capable of modifications in various obvious respects, all without departing from the present invention. Accordingly, the description is to be regarded as illustrative in nature, and not as restrictive.
The present invention provides a facile method of polishing metal surfaces and is particularly applicable in providing a non-magnetic substrate having a hardened surface layer with reduced defects and a low surface roughness, e.g. about 2 Å to 3 Å in an economical manner.
The present invention relates to a method for polishing rigid disks, such as metal coated substrate for the production of magnetic recording media, using an abrasive dispersion alone or combined with additives including, for example, at least one oxidizer to provide a colloidal slurry. A colloid as used herein refers to a suspension of particles in a medium having an individual or aggregate size of about one millimicron (nanometer) to about one micron (micrometer).
A colloidal slurry as used herein refers to a colloid of abrasive particles in a polishing medium as currently known, or future equivalents thereto, in the CMP arts. In embodiments of the present invention the abrasive particles in the colloidal slurry average less than 1 micron in diameter, e.g. approximately 0.1 micron to about 0.23 micron in diameter.
The abrasive can be incorporated into an aqueous medium of the polishing slurry as a concentrated aqueous dispersion of metal oxides, which concentrated aqueous dispersion of metal oxide abrasives typically ranges from about 3% to about 45% solids, and preferably between 10% and 20% solids. The aqueous dispersion of metal oxides can be produced utilizing conventional techniques, such as slowly adding the metal oxide abrasive to an appropriate media, for example, deionized water, to form a colloidal dispersion. The dispersion is typically completed by subjecting it to high shear mixing conditions known to those skilled in the art. The pH of the slurry may be adjusted away from the isoelectric point to maximize colloidal stability. In an embodiment of the present invention the pH of the colloidal is adjusted to be acidic, i.e., having a pH of less than 7.
The metal oxide abrasive useful in the method of polishing a metal surface in accordance with the present invention comprises metal oxide aggregates or individual single sphere particles. The term �particle� as it is used herein refers to both aggregates of more than one primary particle and to single particles. The metal oxide particles useful in the methods and compositions of this invention will have a size distribution less than about 1.0 micron, a mean individual or aggregate diameter less than about 0.5 micron and a force sufficient to repel and overcome the van der Waals forces between the abrasive aggregates or individuals particles themselves. Such metal oxide abrasives have been found to be effective in minimizing or avoiding scratching, pit marks, divots and other surface imperfections during polishing of rigid disks. The particle size distribution in the present invention may be determined utilizing known techniques such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The mean particle diameter and mean refers to the average equivalent spherical diameter when using TEM image analysis, i.e., based on the cross-sectional area of the particle. By force is meant that either the surface potential or the hydration force of the metal oxide particles must be sufficient to repel and overcome the van der Waals attractive forces between the particles.
Useful metal oxide abrasive comprise alumina, titania, zirconia, germania, silica, ceria mixtures thereof and chemical admixtures thereof. The term �chemical admixture� refers to particles including atomically mixed or coated metal oxide abrasive mixtures. The dispersion useful in the method of this invention preferably includes from about 0.5 to about 55.0 weight percent or more of an abrasive. It is more preferred, however, that the dispersion and/or the CMP slurry of this invention is diluted at the point of use with deionized water or any other acceptable diluent to produce a dispersion with less than 12 wt %, preferably less than about 6.0 wt % abrasive when the abrasive is alumina, less than about 10.0 wt % abrasive when the abrasive is silica, and most preferably from about 3.0 to about 6.0 weight percent abrasive. The term �point of use� refers to the location where the dispersion is used which, in the case of a rigid disk, would be the surface of a rigid disk undergoing polishing.
Additional components can be added to the colloidal slurry as for example at least one oxidizer. Useful oxidizers include, for example, peroxy compounds, e.g. compounds which may disassociate through hydroxy radicals, such as hydrogen peroxide and its adducts such as urea hydrogen peroxide and percarbonates, organic peroxides such as benzoyl peroxide, peracetic acid, and di-t-butyl peroxide, monopersulfates, dipersulfates, sodium percarbonate and sodium peroxide. The oxidizing agent can also be an inorganic or a compound containing an element in its highest oxidation state. The oxidizing agent may be present in a chemical mechanical polishing slurry in an amount ranging from about 0.01 to about 50.0 weight percent, e.g. from about 0.01 to about 10.0 weight percent.
Other well known polishing slurry additives may be incorporated alone or in combination into the colloidal slurry useful in the process of this invention. A non-inclusive list is inorganic acids, catalysts, organic acids, surfactants, alkyl ammonium salts or hydroxides, dispersing agents, stabilizers, abrasion accelerators, film forming agents, etc. or their equivalents.
Many colloidal slurries are commercially available, as for example, Lustra� 2090�Second Step Ultra Polishing Slurry For Rigid Disk Substrates available from Cabot Microelectronics, located in San Jose California. The colloidal slurries useful in the present inventive methods achieve high surface finish as measured by both surface roughness (less than 0.2 nm) and surface defectivity (virtually microscratch and micropit free). Under standard polishing conditions, the colloidal slurry useful in the present methods achieve a good removal rate.
Surfaces suitable for planarization and/or polishing in accordance with the present invention include various metallic articles or metallic surfaces, such as electroless nickel platings deposited employing a conventional electroless nickel plating compositions. Electroless Ni plating compositions generally comprise four ingredients dissolved in a solvent, typically water. These ingredients include: (1) a source of Ni ions; (2) a reducing agent, such as a hypophosphite or an amine borane; (3) an acid or hydroxide pH adjuster to provide a suitable pH; and (4) a complexing agent for metal ions sufficient to prevent their precipitation in solution. Such suitable complexing agents are well known in the art. Accordingly, upon employing a hypophosphite as the reducing agent, the deposit will contain Ni and P. On the other hand, if an amine borane is employed, the deposit will contain Ni and boron.
In practicing embodiments of the present invention, a non-magnetic, metal layer is formed on a substrate useful in the production of rigid magnetic media. Typically, the non-magnetic, metal layer substantially covers one or more surfaces of the substrate. In an embodiment of the present invention, a non-magnetic nickel or nickel alloy layer is formed by depositing an electroless Ni�P layer on a non-magnetic substrate, such as Al, an Al alloy, or an alternative substrate such as a glass, glass-ceramic, or ceramic material. The Ni�P layer can be heated at an elevated temperature, i.e., baked, for improved hardness and corrosion resistance. Subsequently, CMP is performed in an attempt to provide a smooth surface prior to texturing and sputter depositing layers thereon to form a magnetic recording medium.
Metal surfaces such as nickel-plated blanks for rigid memory discs are polished with the above described compositions by subjecting the surface to mechanical rubbing (polishing) in the presence of the composition. The rubbing effects mechanical smoothing or wear of the surface which is aided by the abrasive, promoted by the components when added to the abrasive to give a chemical mechanical polishing slurry which chemically attacks and dissolves the components comprising the disk metal surface. Polishing may thus by achieved solely by a mechanical mechanism, or by a combination of chemical and mechanical mechanisms.
The mechanical rubbing or polishing is conveniently effected by contacting one or both of the rigid disk surfaces with CMP polishing pads under a predetermined compressive force with relative motion between the pad and the surface. The resulting dynamic friction between the pad and the surface causes the desired wear and smoothing of the disk surface. The relative motion is preferably achieved through rotation of either or both the disk surface and the pad. Commercially available polishing pads that are used to polish glass or wafers in the electronics industry may be used. These pads are typically composed of a microporous polymer such as polyurethane foam, optionally backed with a substrate such as felt, latex filled felt, dense polyurethane, or latex. The coefficients of friction of the surfaces of those pads vary and it is within the scope of the invention to carry out the process using a multiplicity of stages (e.g., rough polish followed by a finish polish) using pads having different coefficients of friction. For instance when the process involves a rough polish stage followed by a finish polish stage, the pad used in the finish polish stage has a lower coefficient of friction than the pad used in the rough polish stage. Commercially available CMP pads can be obtained from Rodel of Phoenix Arizona.
The polishing machines that are used to polish silicon wafers and the like in the electronics industry may be adapted for use in polishing the plated rigid disc blanks. A commercially available polishing apparatus is available, for example, from SpeedFam-IPEC of Chandler Arizona. These machines basically consist of a pair of platens. One of the platens carries a rack on which one or more rigid discs may be mounted. The other platen carries a driven rotatable plate on which the polishing pad is mounted. The machine includes means for controlling the pressure between the platens, means for controlling the temperature of the platens, and means for injecting one or more fluids into the interface between the platens. In an embodiment of the present invention, a Wittig polisher developed by Seagate Technologies, Inc. of Anaheim California is used to polish a Ni�P coated aluminum substrate.
Rigid disk polishing can be accomplished in one or two steps. In an embodiment of the present invention, the polishing compound is successively provided with a smaller size of the particle diameter in first and second polishing steps so as to polish the surface. Thus, in the first polishing step, the surface is rapidly polished and the waviness is removed at the same time together with other major defects.
In the first step, an abrasive dispersion or chemical mechanical polishing slurry is applied to the rigid disk surface with a pad in order to quickly remove a portion of the disk surface layer by mechanical abrasion to give a rigid disk with an abraded surface. In an embodiment of the present invention, the slurry used in the first step is not colloidal, i.e. the abrasive particles are larger than one micron, to enhance polishing speed and throughput. In an embodiment of the present invention the first polishing step comprises rough polishing a nickel plated substrate comprising aluminum with a non-colloidal polishing slurry with a polishing pad for about several seconds to about two minutes to a predetermined roughness, i.e. higher than the final finish.
It has been recognized, however, that to achieve even higher surface smoothness, a slower removal rate colloidal polishing slurry can be used in a second polishing step. In accordance with the present invention, the second polishing step comprises polishing the surface of a metal on the substrate with a colloidal slurry to reduce surface roughness, e.g. to achieve a fine finish having an average surface roughness (Ra) of about 1.5 Å to about 3 Å. The second step can be accomplished by employing a colloidal slurry comprising colloidal alumina and an oxidant with a polyurethane CMP polishing pad on a polishing apparatus for about several seconds to about two minutes. After the second step polishing process is complete, the polished surface is rinsed with water; and dried.
Through experimentation it has been surprisingly discovered that the colloidal slurry can be reused in the second step polishing process. It is believed that the reuse, although a simple process, is contrary to conventional practices where it believed that only virgin, unused colloidal slurry, is appropriate in polishing metal surfaces to a fine finish. The belief being that used colloidal slurry will increase contamination and be less effective in polishing the metal surface.
In practicing the present invention, the colloidal slurry used in polishing the surface of the metal is collected, as in a collection container or tank and subsequently combined with fresh, unused colloidal slurry to form a mixed slurry composition. The pH of the mixed slurry composition can be adjusted at this time with conventional acids, bases or buffers to maintain the desired pH of the mixture. In an embodiment of the present invention, the collected colloidal slurry is separated from any precipitated metal, e.g., any settled metal residue, as by decanting the collected colloidal slurry prior to preparing the mixture.
A mixed colloidal slurry composition can be prepared by combining 1 part unused colloidal slurry to 10 parts of the collected colloidal slurry to form the mixed slurry and adjusting the pH of the mixture to acidic, e.g. adjusting the pH of the mixed slurry to a pH of about 3 to about 4. Additional metal surfaces can then be polished, as by the second polishing step, with the mixed colloidal slurry composition, i.e. a recolloidal process. Consequently, the resulting surface after CMP exhibits substantially reduced defects and an Ra of about less than 3 Å, with an attendant increase in production throughput yield and cost earnings.
In a comparative experiment nickel-phosphorous coated aluminum alloy substrates having the thicknesses shown in the Tables were polished by the recolloidal process of the present invention and compared to a polishing process that differed only in that the comparative polishing process employed solely unused colloidal slurry. The results are presented in Tables 1 and 2.
From the results of the experiments it is apparent that the recolloidal process of the present invention provides a finished polished metal surface as good as, if not slightly better than, using solely unused colloidal slurry in the second step of a two-step polishing process.
After the finish polishing step, a magnetic layer can be formed on the polished metal surface as is known in the art. On the magnetic layer is formed a protective overcoat and a lubricant topcoat is typically formed on the protective overcoat as is conventionally known to complete the production of a magnetic recording medium. Magnetic recording media in accordance with the present invention can comprise any conventional substrate, such as Ni�P/Al or an Ni�P/Al alloy substrate, Al or an Al alloy substrate, or a glass, ceramic, glass-ceramic or polymeric substrate. The present invention can be implemented employing any of the various seedlayers, underlayers, magnetic layers and lubricant topcoats conventionally employed in manufacturing magnetic recording media. For example, embodiments of the present invention comprise the use of a Cr or Cr alloy underlayer or underlayers, Co-alloy magnetic layers and PFPE lubricants for enhance durability.
The present invention enables efficient surface treatment, e.g., smoothening, of various metallic articles and metallic surfaces, such as Al, Ni, and Ni�P, by a recolloidal polishing process. The present invention enjoys industrial applicability in manufacturing any of various types of metallic articles or articles with metallic surfaces, particular magnetic recording media, including thin film disks. The present invention is particularly applicable in producing high areal recording density magnetic recording media requiring a low flying height.
In the previous description, numerous specific details are set forth, such as specific materials and processes, to provide a better understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced without resorting to the details specifically set forth. In other instances, well known materials and techniques have not been described in detail in order not to unnecessarily obscure the present invention.
Only certain embodiments of the present invention and but a few examples of its versatility are shown and described in the present disclosure. It is to be understood that the present invention is capable of use in various other combinations and environments and is capable of changes and modifications within the scope of the inventive concept as expressed herein.

would the phono stage on my PM6004 be up to the job of being used with a Rega RP6? Or is a separate phono stage ideal?
id like to stream music to my hifi from my iPod touch 3rd gen, and ipad2.
I have a Marantz 6004.
Hello all.
The mrs doesn't like the fact that my speaker spikes go into the nice carpet. :cry: , however she is fine if I choose to stands the speakers on a base.
Hello everyone.

Hello all.
I bought my first turntable today, the Rega RP1 with performance pack.
I've never bought vinyl before, and I'm just asking for any helpful tips really...
Hi all.

I haven't gotten around to listening to the new FKA twigs album. I did listen to the song "Two Weeks," though, and I find that one in particular to be quite the jam, so it's a shame to hear that you found the album as a whole disappointing to me. With that said, I thought some of her songs off her EPs were pretty, but like a wee too ambient. Is that what this LP essentially is?
Were I a lady, and you walked in on me rubbing lotion on my naked self, and you didn't try to do anything weirder than say "oh shit" and run out, then I'll probably giggle about it, but let it go altogether. I'm a grown, naked woman with more important things on my mind, y'know? I get that you might be embarrassed by the whole scenario, but you're not a pervert that needs to be reported just because you weren't fully aware of being in the wrong locker room and accidentally glancing at me. Naked. Rubbing lotion. On myself.
Basically, bugs and gigantic eyeballs. I couldn't play the Wind Waked for the longest time because of the one-eyed moth you had to face (not to mention the octoroks that would all of a sudden just STAND RIGHT BEHIND YOU).
Great actor; a guy that makes you respect him being in the Mario Brothers even though A) the movie blew and B) he supposedly totally hated doing it. It's a shame to hear that he passed away, but at least he left behind a pretty fulfilled career.
I think if the Donnas tried hard enough, teenage boys would have followed.
Complicated question imo, needs walls of text:
Firstly, I dunno if I'm interested in seeing any of those potential movies you listed OP. Not because I don't enjoy them as video games, but the fact that the games already have such a movie-like grounding to them that I don't see what references could strafe the property to be anything that you haven't already seen before. Kind of like how I hear Need for Speed not being so much a video game movie as a Fast and Furious movie with a video game license, y'know? Only Assassin's Creed could be sort of original in that its time-traveling genetics of a story is a crazy mechanic that the potential movie could have a bunch of fun with.
However, while there's plenty of duds, movies about games have certainly been praised before: Mortal Kombat's already been mentioned, and I hear pretty good things about the Phoenix Wright movie a couple of years back (I sure as heck want to see it at some point in the near future). Such iterations are based on pretty deep fiction, and can so easily be seen as being more from a game than anything else. Not to mention Scott Pilgrim and Wreck-It-Ralph, which, while not being straight-up video game adaptations, owed a lot of their respective successes to portraying the video game theming that was surrounding them. I guess I should just say "it's a matter of time," but I think it's really important for filmmakers to adapt properties in a way that gives it a distinct "video game" quality.
I liked Backstreet Boys, hated Backstreet Boys, hated One Direction, liked One Direction, and then liked Backstreet Boys again.
Despite all of the good buzz it had for a bit, I believe Patrick's the only one that'll recall Fire Emblem at all throughout the deliberations, though I'd adore to eat those words.
Play games that are practically books. Not particularly wordy, mind you, but just as intellectual as some of the classics. I find Stanley's Parable, for example, to be an intellectually stimulating experience, and part of that is what makes the game so great to me. There's a good bit out there these days. You should be all like "Who's socially inept now?" if video games are ever brought up as a hobby for losers.
