An Incentive-Compatible Mechanism for Decentralized Storage Network [PDF]
The dominance of a few big companies in the storage market arising various concerns including single point of failure, privacy violation, and oligopoly. To eliminate the dependency on such a centralized storage architecture, several Decentralized Storage Network (DSN) schemes such as Filecoin, Sia, and Storj have been introduced.

Bias sputtering of granular L10-FePt films with hexagonal boron nitride grain boundaries
In this paper, we present an experimental study of L10-FePt granular films with crystalline boron nitride (BN) grain boundary materials for heat assisted magnetic recording (HAMR). It is found that application of a RF substrate bias (V DC = -15 V) yields
