Abstract:
A data storage medium for perpendicular recording has a substrate and a ferromagnetic layer on the substrate for storing data bits. The ferromagnetic layer has a plurality of elongate grains of magnetizable material extending perpendicular to the substrate which form magnetic domains representative of data. Each magnetic domain is separated from adjacent magnetic domains by a bit edge domain wall region. Each elongate grain has a perpendicular height that is greater than a width of the bit edge domain wall region.
Abstract:
A thin film structure comprises a first layer including a first plurality of grains of magnetic material having a first intergranular exchange coupling, and a second layer positioned adjacent to the first layer and including a second plurality of grains of magnetic material having a second intergranular exchange coupling, wherein the second intergranular exchange coupling is larger than the first intergranular exchange coupling and wherein the Curie temperature of the first layer is greater than the Curie temperature of the second layer. A data storage system including the thin film structure is also provided.
Abstract:
A tilted magnetic recording medium comprises a layer of magnetic material having a magnetic easy axis defined by tilted alignment of a particular crystalline phase of the magnetic material. A film of (101) and (011) textured L10 phase of a tetragonal crystalline magnetic material has crystalline c-axes oriented 45° to the medium surface normal. The L10 crystalline magnetic alloy comprises a first element selected from the group consisting of Co and Fe, and a second element selected from the group consisting of Pt and Pd. A seedlayer comprising a bcc or B2 crystal structure with a natural texture of (110) creates interfacial stress with the magnetic layer, giving rise to a pure (101) and (011) textured L10 crystalline film. A textured underlying surface facilitates preferential formation of the seedlayer and subsequent growth of the magnetic material to achieve tilted magnetic directions perpendicular to the recording tracks.

The invention provides a method of polishing a substrate, which method comprises the steps of (i) providing a polishing composition, (ii) providing a substrate comprising at least one metal layer, and (iii) abrading at least a portion of the metal layer with the polishing composition to polish the substrate. The polishing composition comprises an abrasive and a liquid carrier, wherein the abrasive comprises metal oxide particles having a surface with a silane compound adhered to a portion thereof and a polymer adhered to the silane compound and wherein the polymer is selected from the group consisting of water-soluble polymers and water-emulsifiable polymers. The invention also provides a polishing composition as described above, wherein the total amount of abrasive particles present in the polishing composition is no greater than about 20% by weight of the polishing composition, and the metal oxide particles do not comprise zirconia.
Abstract:
The invention includes improving or enhancing exchange coupling within a thin film layer. The improvement or enhancement to the exchange coupling occurs between the grains that are deposited to form the thin film. The improvement or enhancement to the exchange coupling between the grains of the thin film results from annealing the thin film at an elevated temperature for a period of time. A thin film structure and/or a magnetic recording layer made in accordance with the invention are disclosed.
