High Coercivity Pt/Co Multilayers

Abstract: Abstract-A process based on argon sputtering has been developed for the production of Pt/Co multilayers with high coercivities. Loop squareness and polar Kerr rotation are not degraded by the processing and multilayers with square loops, polar Kerr rotations of >0.3 0 and coercivities approaching 6 kOe have been prepared. KEYWORDS: PT/CO, MULTILA YERS, mGH COERCIVITY, ARGON SPUTTERING INTRODUCfIONPt/Co multilayers are widely recognised as promising next generation media for magneto-optical recording due to the… Show more

“…A first step towards this would be the preparation of a Pt/Co multilayer structure of similar nature to the direct overwrite (DOW) bilayer first described by Saito et al [1] consisting of a memory layer with a low Curie temperature (Tc) and high ambient coercivity (Hc) and a reference layer with a higher Curie temperature and a lower ambient coercivity. The development at Johnson Matthey of techniques for the preparation of Pt/Co MLs of controlled coercivity [2] gives the potential to address this aim. This paper reports the preparation of stacked Pt/Co MLs with independent control of coercivity and Curie temperature addressable through the substrate.…”
