摘要:
The present invention discloses a single-layered recording film with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The single-layered recording film includes a substrate and a ferromagnetic layer. The ferromagnetic layer is formed on the substrate and annealed by a rapid thermal annealing process. After annealing, the average grain size of the single-layered recording film is close to the film thickness of ferromagnetic layer, which is beneficial to achieve a single-layered recording film with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy.

The present invention discloses a discontinuous islanded ferromagnetic recording film with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The discontinuous islanded ferromagnetic recording film includes a substrate and a ferromagnetic layer. The ferromagnetic layer is formed on the substrate and annealed by a high-temperature vacuum annealing process. After annealing, a surface energy difference existed between the ferromagnetic layer and the substrate turns the ferromagnetic layer into well-separated and discontinuous islanded ferromagnetic particles. Each islanded ferromagnetic particle is thought of a single magnetic domain, which is beneficial to achieve a discontinuous islanded ferromagnetic recording film with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy.

The present invention includes that using single layer amorphous CoTbAg thin films as heat assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) media, and the method for producing these CoTbAg amorphous thin films. Co69.48−XTb30.52AgX films with x=0˜25.68 at. % are fabricated by DC or RF magnetron sputtering and rotating substrate. Two kinds of targets can be used. One is the CoTbAg alloy target. The other one consists of Co, Tb and Ag three targets. The CoTbAg film is prepared by co-sputtering of Co, Tb and Ag targets. The film composition can be controlled by changing the sputtering power density of each target. CoTbAg films are deposited on glass substrate or nature-oxide silicon wafer at room temperature. These films have high saturation magnetization and high perpendicular coercivity. They have amorphous structure and can be applied to HAMR media.

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.
