摘要： Solid-state memories are disclosed that are comprised of cross-point memory arrays. The cross-point memory arrays include a first plurality of electrically conductive lines and a second plurality of electrically conductive lines that cross over the first plurality of electrically conductive lines. The memory arrays also include a plurality of memory cells located between the first and second conductive lines. The memory cells are formed from a metallic material, such as FeRh, having the characteristic of a first order phase transition due to a change in temperature. The first order phase transition causes a corresponding change in resistivity of the metallic material.

摘要： A magnetic recording medium for thermally-assisted recording is a bilayer of a high-coercivity, high-anisotropy ferromagnetic material like FePt and a switching material like FeRh or Fe(RhM) (where M is Ir, Pt, Ru, Re or Os) that exhibits a switch from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic at a transition temperature less than the Curie temperature of the high-coercivity material. The high-coercivity recording layer and the switching layer are exchange coupled ferromagnetically when the switching layer is in its ferromagnetic state. To write data the bilayer medium is heated above the transition temperature of the switching layer. When the switching layer becomes ferromagnetic, the total magnetization of the bilayer is increased, and consequently the switching field required to reverse a magnetized bit is decreased without lowering the anisotropy of the recording layer. The magnetic bit pattern is recorded in both the recording layer and the switching layer. When the media is cooled to below the transition temperature of the switching layer, the switching layer becomes antiferromagnetic and the bit pattern remains in the high-anisotropy recording layer.

摘要： A magnetic recording disk drive has a patterned perpendicular magnetic recording disk of the type that has spaced-apart pillars with magnetic material on their ends and with trenches between the pillars that are nonmagnetic regions. A nonmagnetic capping layer is located in the trenches above the nonmagnetic regions. The substrate has diffusion material in the trenches that when heated will diffuse into the magnetic recording layer material and chemically react with it. The pillars are formed of material that will not diffuse into the recording layer. The recording layer is formed over the entire substrate and a nonmagnetic capping layer that is not chemically reactive with the diffusion material is formed over the recording layer in the trenches. The substrate is annealed to cause the recording layer material in the trenches and the material in the substrate to diffuse into one another and chemically react to render the trenches nonmagnetic. The capping layer suppresses the diffusion of material from the substrate to the surface in the trenches and thus prevents migration of diffusion material to the recording layer material on the ends of the pillars.

摘要： A perpendicular magnetic recording system and medium has a multilayered recording layer that includes an exchange-spring structure and a ferromagnetic lateral coupling layer (LCL). The exchange-spring structure is made up of two ferromagnetically exchange-coupled magnetic layers (MAG1 and MAG2), each with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. MAG1 and MAG2 may have a coupling layer (CL) located between them that permits ferromagnetic exchange coupling of MAG1 with MAG2. The LCL is located either above or below MAG1 and in direct contact with MAG1 and mediates an effective intergranular exchange coupling in MAG1. The ferromagnetic alloy in the LCL has significantly greater intergranular exchange coupling than the ferromagnetic alloy in MAG1, which typically will include segregants such as oxides. The LCL is preferably free of oxides or other non-metallic segregants, which would tend to reduce intergranular exchange coupling in the LCL. Because the LCL grain boundaries overlay the boundaries of the generally segregated and decoupled grains of MAG1, and the LCL and MAG1 grains are strongly coupled perpendicularly, the LCL introduces an effective intergranular exchange coupling in the MAG1.

摘要： A perpendicular magnetic recording disk has an antiferromagnetically-coupled (AFC) recording layer (RL) comprised of lower and upper ferromagnetic layers, each having a hexagonal-close-packed (hcp) crystalline structure and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, separated by an antiferromagnetically (AF) coupling layer, wherein the lower ferromagnetic layer (LFM) has substantially higher magnetic permeability than the upper ferromagnetic layer (UFM). The AFC RL is located on an actual exchange break layer (EBL) that separates the AFC RL from the disk's soft magnetic underlayer (SUL). The LFM functions as part of an “effective” exchange break layer (EBL) that also includes the actual EBL and the AF-coupling layer, thereby allowing the actual EBL to be made as thin as possible. The hcp LFM promotes the growth of the hcp UFM in the same way the actual EBL does so that its thickness contributes to the thickness necessary to grow the hcp UFM. The effective EBL appears to be magnetically “thin” during the write process and magnetically “thick” during the readback process.

摘要： A perpendicular magnetic recording system uses an exchange-spring type of perpendicular magnetic recording medium. The medium has a recording layer (RL) that includes a lower media layer (ML) and a multilayer exchange-spring layer (ESL) above the ML. The high anisotropy field (high-Hk) lower ML and the multilayer ESL are exchange-coupled across a coupling layer. The multilayer ESL has at least two ESLs separated by a coupling layer, with each of the ESLs having an Hk substantially less than the Hk of the ML. The exchange-spring structure with the multilayer ESL takes advantage of the fact that the write field magnitude and write field gradient vary as a function of distance from the write pole. The thicknesses and Hk values of each of the ESLs can be independently varied to optimize the overall recording performance of the medium.

摘要： A perpendicular magnetic recording medium has an “exchange-spring” type magnetic recording layer (RL) formed of two ferromagnetic layers with substantially similar anisotropy fields that are ferromagnetically exchange-coupled by a nonmagnetic or weakly ferromagnetic coupling layer. Because the write head produces a larger magnetic field and larger field gradient at the upper portion of the RL, while the field strength decreases further inside the RL, the upper ferromagnetic layer can have a high anisotropy field. The high field and field gradient near the top of the RL, where the upper ferromagnetic layer is located, reverses the magnetization of the upper ferromagnetic layer, which then assists in the magnetization reversal of the lower ferromagnetic layer. Because both ferromagnetic layers in this exchange-spring type RL have a high anisotropy field, the thermal stability of the medium is not compromised. The medium shows improved writability, i.e., a low switching field, as well as lower intrinsic media noise, over a medium with a conventional single-layer RL.

摘要： A patterned perpendicular magnetic recording medium has discrete magnetic islands, each of which has a recording layer (RL) structure that comprises two exchange-coupled ferromagnetic layers. The RL structure may be an “exchange-spring” RL structure with an upper ferromagnetic layer (MAG2), sometimes called the exchange-spring layer (ESL), ferromagnetically coupled to a lower ferromagnetic layer (MAG1), sometimes called the media layer (ML). The RL structure may also include a coupling layer (CL) between MAG1 and MAG2 that permits ferromagnetic coupling. The interlayer exchange coupling between MAG1 and MAG2 may be optimized, in part, by adjusting the materials and thickness of the CL. The RL structure may also include a ferromagnetic lateral coupling layer (LCL) that is in contact with at least one of MAG1 and MAG2 for mediating intergranular exchange coupling in the ferromagnetic layer or layers with which it is in contact (MAG2 or MAG1). The ferromagnetic alloy in the LCL has significantly greater intergranular exchange coupling than the ferromagnetic alloy with which it is in contact (MAG2 or MAG1).
