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 …

Formation of L1 0-oredered structure from disordered A1 phase has been investigated for
FePt and FePd films on MgO (001) substrates employing a two-step method consisting of …

We employ ultrafast X-ray diffraction to compare the lattice dynamics of laser-excited
continuous and granular FePt films on MgO (100) substrates. Contrary to recent results on …

The impact of Gd addition on the structural and magnetic properties of L 1 0-FePt alloy thin
films, which were sputter-deposited on MgO (001) substrates at 800 C, was investigated. A …

Increase in the FePt grain density is necessary to achieve an ultra-high recording density of
the heat-assisted magnetic recording. Herein, the highest grain density in FePt-Cr 2 O 3 …

The dependence of the degree of order and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (K u⊥) on
magnetic layer thickness (d mag) for FePt granular films with various grain boundary …

Microstructures of FePt films deposited on MgO and MgAl 2 O 4 single crystalline substrates
were studied using aberration corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) …

A systematic study is conducted on the effect of MgO substrate/underlayer in terms of the
surface roughness, grain boundary, and crystallographic texture on the magnetic in-plane …

In this work, we present an atomic-scale investigation of L1 0-FePt particles that are partly or
fully embedded in a single-crystalline MgO matrix. Hundreds of particles in different …

Investigation of magnetic properties and nanostructure of FePt-B 2 O 3 granular film with
carbon buffer layer (BL) of various thicknesses is reported. When the thickness of carbon BL …
