The fundamental notion behind Atomic Layer Deposition is rather simple It is process by which an atomic layer of material can be affixed to surface material one layer at time. Much of this work has been at the millimeter and micron scales were it is relatively easy to fabricate components for assembly.

Differences in spindependent scattering of electrons at the interface layers lead to resistance differences that can be read by the magnetic head. As the minimum feature size for electronic processing approaches nanometres, nanotechnology provides ways to decrease further the bit size of the stored information, thus increasing density and reducing interconnection distances for obtaining stillhigher speeds. Mechanical properties, particularly tribology friction and wear of moving surfaces, also play an important role in magnetic hard disk drives, since magnetic heads float only about nanometres above spinning magnetic disks..
