| Research Abstract |
In order to store all of the digital information in the world, HDD with huge capacity an high recording density are necessary. In this study, synthesis of a patterned media using hexagonal ferrite thin films with self assembled nano-dot structure has been tried for future high density recording media. Two under-layer, which are Si-Al layer and Au nano-dot layer have been used for the under layer of hexagonal ferrite layer. Ferrite layer is non-magnetic when it is amorphous. The crystallization temperature of ferrite layer on metal under-layer is much lower than that of non metallic under layer. The idea of this research is nano-dot crystallization of hexagonal ferrite layer with self-assembled metal nano-dot area. The MFM images show that hexagonal ferrite layer seems to be crystallized on Au nano-dot parts and other area is still amorphous and non-magnetic.
