Abstract :
In this article we report the optimum surface coverage ratio of the bonded and mobile phases in the 1 nm height ultrathin PFPE lubricant film for future HDD technology. The lubricant layers were prepared by the dip coating and washing process. Patterning of lubricant was verified by scanning Reflectance Analyzer (SRA) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
