摘要:
Magnetic recording media having a magnetic layer with an easy magnetization axis lying about 45° out of plane of the magnetic layer is disclosed. SMNR from this media could be greatly improved from conventional longitudinal and perpendicular recording, because of an increase in the grain anisotropy that could be effectively written due to the angled recording configuration, resulting also in higher thermal stability, therefore, suitable for higher areal density recording.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium on glass or Al substrates with film structures of CrV/NiAl/CrMo/CoCrTa/CoCrPtTaNbB and CrMo/CoCrTa/CoCrPtTaNbB exhibit high coercivity and high signal-to-medium noise ratio. The medium can be used for high-density longitudinal magnetic recording. Embodiments include forming a sub-seed layer on a NiP-plated aluminum substrate, and sequentially depositing a seed layer, an underlayer, an intermediate layer and a magnetic layer on the substrate. The magnetic layer contains at least six elements, including Co, Cr and B.

High areal density magnetic recording media exhibiting low noise are formed with a surface oxidized NiAl seed layer. Embodiments include forming the surface oxidized NiAl seed layer on a glass or glass-ceramic substrate, and sequentially depositing a Cr or Cr-alloy, such as CrV, an intermediate CoCrTa layer and a CoCrPtTa magnetic layer.
摘要:
Sputter-deposited TiW film interposed between a magnetic layer and a nitrogen-containing overcoat of a magnetic recording medium significantly reduces the migration of nitrogen from the overcoat to the magnetic layer, thereby improving the magnetic recording performances of the magnetic recording medium.
摘要:
A bi-crystal magnetic recording medium, i.e., medium with Cr(200) and Co(11.0) orientations, having a CrW-containing underlayer in which the W content increases for improved lattice matching with a Co-alloy magnetic layer has high coercivity, high SMNR and high areal recording density.
摘要:
A magnetic recording media is formed with high in-plane coercivity employing dual magnetic layers. The first magnetic layer is sputter deposited in a chamber employing a shield such that the minimum incident angle of impinging atoms is relatively large, e.g., greater than about 26°. Embodiments of the present invention comprise depositing a NiAl seedlayer, a Cr or Cr alloy underlayer and a first CoCrTa magnetic layer at a thickness less than about 50 Å for inducing the preferred (10.0) crystallographic orientation in the subsequently deposited second magnetic layer, e.g., CoCrPtTa or CoCrPtTaNb having a high Cr content of about 16 to about 21 at. %.
摘要:
Adhesion between a deposited seed layer, e.g., a sputter-deposited NiP seed layer, on an alternate substrate, such as a glass, ceramic or glass-ceramic substrate, is significantly enhanced by depositing a chromium or chromium-alloy adhesion enhancement film between the substrate and seed layer. Magnetic recording media comprising a surface-oxidized NiP seed layer and chromium adhesion enhancement film exhibit low media noise and are suitable for high density longitudinal magnetic recording.
摘要:
A scratch erasure resistant perpendicular magnetic recording medium comprises a non-magnetic substrate having a surface, and a layer stack formed over the surface and comprising: (i) at least one magnetically hard perpendicular magnetic recording layer; and (ii) at least one low shear modulus layer comprising at least one material having a shear modulus not greater than about 30 GPa. Preferably, the at least one magnetically hard perpendicular magnetic recording layer includes at least a first layer comprised of a magnetic material having a hexagonal close packed (hcp) crystal structure and preferred basal plane crystallographic orientation with c-axis perpendicular to a surface thereof.
摘要:
Sputter-deposited amorphous metal oxide films on substrates comprising an aluminum-containing support and a Ni-containing pre-coat reduce Ni ion migration significantly from the substrate onto the top surface of the magnetic recording media. Longitudinal magnetic recording media deposited on metal oxide sealing layers have very good magnetic recording performances and are suitable for high density recording application.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium on glass or Al substrates with film structure of NiAl seed layer/CrMo underlayer/CoCrPtB magnetic layer/carbon overcoat, in which the magnetic layer has a substantially (10.0) crystallographic orientation, exhibits high coercivity, high signal-to-medium noise ratio and low transition jitter. The medium can be used for high-density longitudinal magnetic recording. Embodiments include forming a surface oxidized NiAl sub-seed layer on a glass or glass-ceramic substrate, and sequentially depositing a seed layer of NiAl, an underlayer of Cr or Cr-alloy, such as CrMo, and a CoCrPtB magnetic layer.
