ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1109/TMAG.2006.878402 | Abstract: | MgO buffer layer in FePt perpendicular media blocked diffusion from the CrRu underlayer and promoted epitaxial growth of the FePt L10 film. The MgO layer deposited at 50°C appeared continuous and the interface roughness between MgO and FePt decreased with increasing thickness up to 4 nm. The predominant FePt (001) texture slightly improved with increasing MgO thickness. At 350°C, deposited MgO (2-nm thickness) was discontinuous and island-like. For 8-nm-thick MgO, the FePt (001) dominated and FePt (111) almost disappeared. Defects such as grain boundaries, twin boundaries, and interface roughness contributed to the high coercivity as a result of high deposition temperature or small MgO thickness. © 2006 IEEE. | Source Title: | IEEE Transactions on Magnetics | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/86459 | ISSN: | 00189464 | DOI: | 10.1109/TMAG.2006.878402 |
