摘要:
A magnetic recording medium having a substrate, a first magnetic layer having a perpendicular anisotropy and a second magnetic layer having a perpendicular anisotropy, wherein the second magnetic layer contains substantially no dielectric material, (such as, but not limited to, oxides, carbides, and nitrides) is disclosed. Also disclosed is a method for manufacturing the magnetic recording medium of the embodiments of this invention.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium having a substrate, a granular magnetic layer and a magnetic cap layer covered with carbon overcoat, in this order, wherein both the granular magnetic and magnetic cap layers contain magnetic grains and non-magnetic grain boundaries, and further wherein the magnetic cap layer has denser grain boundaries and the magnetic cap layer contains substantially no oxide is disclosed. The magnetic cap layer serves as both magnetic layer and corrosion barrier for lower HMS.
摘要:
Oriented longitudinal magnetic recording media on direct texture glass or glass-ceramic substrates with a film structure of one or more Ni-containing layer, a Cr-containing underlayer, a Co-containing magnetic layer and carbon overcoat exhibits are capable of achieving Mrt OR of >1.5, preferably >1.85. Such highly oriented glass media shows a significant SNR (>2 dB) and parametric improvement over the counterpart isotropic media with the same film structure on non-textured glass or glass-ceramic substrates.

摘要:
A magnetic recording medium is provided with a dual layer protective overcoat system comprising a SiC corrosion barrier layer and a carbon-containing protective overcoat thereon. The SiC layer effectively prevents or significantly reduces Co and Ni diffusion to the medium surface. Embodiments include magnetic recording media comprising a SiC corrosion barrier layer over a magnetic layer, an overlying protective layer of amorphous hydrogenated carbon, amorphous nitrogenated carbon or amorphous hydrogen-nitrogenated carbon, and a lubricant topcoat thereon. Embodiments of the present invention further include magnetic recording media comprising Ni—P plated aluminum, Ni-plated glass or non-conductive substrates including glass, glass-ceramic and ceramic materials. Embodiments of the present invention further include a dual protective overcoat system having a combined thickness less than about 100 Å, such as less than about 75 Å, e.g., less than about 50 Å, with the SiC corrosion barrier layer having a thickness ranging from 1 Å to 40 Å.
摘要:
A perpendicular magnetic recording layer may include a hard granular layer, an exchange break layer formed on the hard granular layer, and a soft granular layer formed on the exchange break layer. In some embodiments, the exchange break layer may consist essentially of ruthenium. In some embodiments, the perpendicular magnetic recording layer may include n magnetic layers and n−1 exchange break layers, where n is greater than or equal to three, and where the n−1 exchange break layers alternate with the n magnetic layers in the magnetic recording layer.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium having a Au, Ag-containing magnetic layer having Co, Cr, Ag and Au; the magnetic recording layer having Co-containing magnetic grains surrounded by substantially nonmagnetic Cr-containing grain boundaries; wherein said Ag and said Au are substantially immiscible in the Co-containing magnetic grains is disclosed.
