Abstract:

The report details a facility for the fabrication of quality permalloy plated wires for computer memory applications. A description of the sequence of steps for a continuous plating system is included. Related parameters pertinent to production of reproducible uniform films and reduction of mechanical stresses are discussed e.g. both composition, thickness, substrate surface, memory element, analytical techniques, electrolytic cleaning, and electropolishing. The fabrication of instrumentation necessary for measurement of switching time is described briefly.
