Abstract:
A novel heat assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) medium and the fabrication method therefor are provided. The exchange coupling effect occurring at the interface of FePt/CoTb double layers is adopted, and thus the resulting magnetic flux would be sufficient enough to be detected and readout under the room temperature. The provided HAMR medium exhibits a relatively high saturation magnetization and perpendicular coercivity, and thus possesses a great potential for the ultra-high density recording application.
Abstract:
A magnetic recording medium is provided in the present invention. The magnetic recording medium including a substrate; a base layer disposed on the substrate; an intermediate layer disposed on the base layer; and a recording layer disposed on the intermediate layer and including a magnetic matrix and a plurality of non-magnetic particles percolated in the magnetic matrix.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating an L10 alloy film is provided. The method includes steps of (a) providing a substrate; (b) heating the substrate as a preheated substrate at a first temperature ranged from 100° C. to 600° C. for a time period ranged from 5 minutes to 120 minutes, and then cooling the substrate to room temperature in the sputtering chamber; (c) depositing an alloy film on the preheated substrate; and (d) annealing the alloy film at a second temperature ranged from 200° C. to 500° C. to form the alloy film.
