ABSTRACTThe high magnetic anisotropy and high coercivity of equiatomic CoPt thin films make them attractive as potential materials for magnetic recording applications. Magnetic coercivity (Hc) over 10 kOe has been measured in films in which the as-deposited fee phase has been partially transformed to the atomically ordered Ll0 phase. Very high Hc has been related to high volume fraction and small size of the Ll0 precipitates. A better understanding of the Ll0 phase formation and quantification of volume fraction is critical to optimizing the magnetic properties of this material.As we have previously reported, an increase in Hc was observed with an increase in Ll0 volume fraction in 10 nm thick, equiatomic CoPt films. In our current investigation we have observed that, at anneal temperatures far from the order/disorder transition temperature, e.g. at T = 0.6 Tc, numerous, very fine Ll0 precipitates are seen, some of which cluster at the parent phase grain boundaries. At T = 0.85 Tc, very few, larger Ll0 regions were seen. As precipitates of the ordered phase grow to impingement, antiphase boundaries (APB) are formed. This is consistent with a heterogeneous nucleation and growth mechanism for the formation of the Ll0 phase throughout the temperature range studies.

Materials for very high density magnetic storage media, with capacities of 10 Gbits/in2 and beyond, require high coercivity and high signal to noise ratio. To achieve storage densities of this level engineering of the material to produce very fine, magnetically decoupled domains is necessary. We have characterized the microstructure and microchemistry of 10 nm thick CoPt and CoPt + ZrOx thin films, as deposited and annealed, using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and nanometer-scale energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS).CoPt has a very high coercivity (Hc) when annealed to produce the ordered Ll0 phase. Annealing also increases grain size which reduces the signal to noise ratio. Co-sputtering CoPt with ZrOx was intended to reduce grain size. TEM micrographs in Figure 1 show that grain growth was dramatically reduced in the CoPt + ZrOx films. Essential to the development of optimum material properties are quantified grain size measurements, yet owing to the small grain size and the complexity of TEM images due to diffraction contrast there are few systematic studies of grain size in thin films.

Abstract Heat assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) is one of the leading technologies for next generation magnetic recording. Laser heating is utilized in HAMR to achieve magnetic writing of the very high coercivity media. However, the high temperature environment creates several reliability challenges for the head disk interface (HDI). Material transfer within the HDI under HAMR conditions or emulated HAMR conditions has been studied by experiments and simulations. It is found that the material transfer is mainly driven by thermal gradient and mechanical interaction such as head disk contact. In this paper, we designed an experiment to investigate the material transfer from HAMR media to a flying magnetic head. It shows that thermal gradient, more specifically a hotter media and cooler head, is the driving force for the material accumulation on the head. Furthermore, we calibrated the media temperature by a phase change material to identify the critical temperature that triggers the material transfer process. This study is important to understand the smear formation mechanism in HAMR drives.
