Abstract: | To find a method to form nano-size FePt alloy for ultra-high density magnetic recording media, this work concentrated on the formation mechanisms of nano-island FePt films on amorphous glass substrates. FePt films of different thicknesses (1-10 nm) were deposited on amorphous glass substrates and post-annealed at 700 °C for 10 and 30 min. The configuration of the film changed during the annealing process due to the surface energy difference between the glass substrate and FePt alloy. Investigation of the microstructures and magnetic properties of the ordered L10 FePt films revealed that the 1 nm FePt film annealed at 700 °C for 10 min had perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and good reproducibility of forming well-separated FePt nano-size islands for ultra-high density magnetic recording media. |
