Graded magnetic materials represent a promising new avenue in modern material science
from both fundamental and application points of view. Over the course of the last few years …

Heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) media status, requirements, and challenges to
extend the areal density (AD) of magnetic hard disk drives beyond current records of around …

We studied highly L1 0-ordered FePtAg–C nanogranular film as a potential high-density
storage medium in thermally assisted magnetic recording (TAR). A 6.4-nm-thick FePtAg–C …

Today magnetic recording is still the leading technology for mass data storage. Its dominant
role is being reinforced by the success of cloud computing, which requires storing and …

Development of modern spintronic devices requires materials exhibiting specific magnetic
effects. In this paper, we investigate a magnetization reversal mechanism in a [Co/Pd x] …

Publisher Summary Fe–Pt alloys are known to exhibit high coercivity due to high
magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) of the L1 0 FePt phase. The main intrinsic magnetic …

Current magnetic recording media using perpendicular CoCrPt-Oxide granular films are
reaching their physical limit (approx 750 Gbit/in 2 density) due to thermal fluctuations that …

A soft/hard Fe/FePt bilayer with perpendicular magnetization was prepared on a glass
substrate. Controlling the Fe layer thickness allowed modification of the hysteresis loops …

Two-phase nanostructures of hard L1 0-ordered FePt and soft iron-rich fcc Fe-Pt are
investigated experimentally and by model calculations. The Fe-Pt thin films were produced …

FePt/Fe perpendicular exchange-coupled bilayers with different Fe thicknesses were
prepared to study the exchange coupling effect and the magnetization switching …
