Measurement of magnetic properties showed that the SmCo film possessed good magnetic anisotropy, a high coercivity of 3019 kA/m and low magnetic exchange coupling. Microstructure analysis showed that crystallized SmCo5 magnetic phase, non-magnetic SmCo2 phase and Sm2Co7 phase co-existed in the film. The non-magnetic SmCo2 phase might function as isolator of SmCo grains, leading to a decrease of magnetic exchange coupling. Moreover, a Cr2O3 oxide layer which could protect the SmCo layer from oxidation formed at the surface of the Cr cap layer.展开更多

Structural characteristic and surface mor-phology of the as-deposited films was analyzed by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometer and atomic force microscopy. It was found that the films represented a two component system comprising Te particies dispersed in an amorphous TeO2 matrix. The dispersed Te particies were in a crystalline state. The TeOx films showed a finely granular structure and a rough surface. Results of the statie recording test showed that the TeO_x films had good writing sensitivity for short-wavelength laser beam (514.5 nm). Primary results of the dynamic test at 514.5 nm were also reported. The TeO_x films were suitable for using as a blue-green wavelength high density optical storage medium.展开更多

Surprisingly, a maximum value of about -3 of the polar Kerr rotation for s-polarized incident light is observed in our experiment. We propose that this improvement on the Kerr effect can be attributed to the multiple reflection and optical interference in the cavity, which can also be proved by simulation using the finite element method.展开更多

The structures and magnetic properties of CoPt/BN multilayer films were investigated as a function of Ag layer thickness. It was found that the face-centered tetragonal (fct) (001) texture of CoPt was improved greatly by introducing the Ag toplayer or sublayer together with an Ag underlayer. Good (001)-oriented growth, low intergrain interactions as well as high perpendicular anisotropy can be obtained in the Ag(3 nm)/[BN(2.5 nm)/CoPt(3 nm)]5/Ag(7 nm) and [BN(2.5 nm)/Ag(2 nm)/CoPt(3 nm)]5/Ag(10 nm) films, which become potential candidates for ultrahigh density magnetic recording media.展开更多

The optimum condition to prepare high-ordering L10 FePtZnO films is 20 vol% ZnO addition and 450 ℃ annealing. The effect of the ZnO additive on the ordering process of the L10 FePtZnO films is discussed. In the annealing process, Zn atoms move to the film surface and evaporate. The motion of the Zn atoms accelerates the intergrain exchange and decreases the ordering temperature.展开更多

The thickness dependence of the coercivity of DyFeCo films prepared under the same sputtering conditions was investigated. It is found that the composition is nearly thickness independent, while the coercivity is shown to increase with the film thickness increasing at the beginning, then above a certain thickness decrease with the thickness increasing. The thickness dependence of the coercivity is believed to be due to microstructure-induced variations in the short-range order during the film growth.

High reflectivity contrast (】30%) was obtained at low writing power (8 mW) and short writing pulsewidth (200 ns) using the Ar+ laser (514.5 nm) irradiation. These results demonstrate thatsubphthalocyanine is not only qualified for red-light recording but also a promising candidate for the recording medium of a green-light DVD-R. The leading edge, just like the falling edge, of the dye’s absorption band can also be used to realize optical disk storage if an appropriate reflector was used. It provides a new clew for double-wavelength writing/reading and choosing short-wavelength recording materials.展开更多
