Abstract
Nanocomposite FePt:SiO2 thin films consisting of high anisotropy FePt particles embedded in a SiO2 matrix have been successfully fabricated by annealing the as-deposited FePt/SiO2 multilayers. By adjusting the annealing temperatures and compositions, films were obtained with coercivity of 3.8 kOe and grain size of 10 nm, which are suitable for high-density magnetic recording. Magnetic activation volumes were measured and thermal stability is discussed.Keywords
