摘要
An anisotropy enhanced dual magnetic layer structure is proposed to improve the recording performance of perpendicular media. The initial layer is made of low noise Co-Cr-Pt-O layer and the top layer is made of higher anisotropy Co-Cr-Pt-B layer. A higher nucleation field than the single layer structures is obtained for the dual magnetic layer media. By optimizing the layer structure and properties, better signal-to-noise and lower adjacent track erasure can be achieved for the dual magnetic layer design over single magnetic layer media.
