Abstract

In fabricating Co-Cr films using a continuous vacuum deposition system, the angle at which the vapor beam is incident on the substrate affects the magnetic properties and recording characteristics of the resulting film. Co-Cr films deposited at incident angles from 55° to 20° and from 70° to 20° are anisotropic, while films deposited at incident angles from 20° to -20° are isotropic in the film plane. The azimuth angle dependence of the reproduced output in these films correlates fairly well with the angular dependence of M <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">r</sub> in the film plane. The isolated playback wave-form from films deposited with the angle of incidence ranging from 55° to 20° has a MMF dependence in the normal head scanning direction, whereas that of films deposited from 70° to 20° is independent of the MMF in both the normal and the reverse head scanning directions.
