Millipede - A MEMS-based Scanning-Probe Data-Storage
System
Asia-Pacific Magnetic Recording Conference - APMRC 2002,

Abstract:
Ultrahigh storage densities of up to 1
Tbit/in.2 or more can be achieved by local-probe techniques to write,
read back, and erase data in very thin polymer films. The
thermomechanical scanning-probe-based data-storage concept called
Millipede combines ultrahigh density, small form factor, and high data
rate. After illustrating the principles of operation of the Millipede,
we introduce system aspects related to the read-back process,
multiplexing, and position-error-signal generation for tracking.
