FePt （50 nm） and [FePt（a nm）/MgO（b nm）5/glass （a=1, 2, 3; b=1, 2, 3） films were prepared by radio frequency （RF） magnetron sputtering technique, and then were annealed at 600℃ for 30 min.

The effect of MgO layer thickness on the structures and magnetic properties of the FePt/MgO multilayers was investigated. The coercivities and inter-grain interactions of the FePt/MgO films were decreased, yet the degree of （001） texturing drastically increased with the increase in MgO layer thickness when the FePt layer thickness was fixed. Thus, the FePt/MgO films with appropriate coercivities, high perpendicular anisotropy, and weak intergrain interactions were obtained by controlling the MgO layer thickness. Overall, these results indicate that the FePt/MgO nanostructured films are promising candidates for future high-density perpendicular recording media.展开更多
