Abstract

FePt ∕ B 4 C multilayer composite films have been prepared by magnetron sputtering and subsequent annealing in vacuum. It was found that the B4C layers effectively serve as spacers to separate the FePt layers, enhancing (001) orientation of FePt alloy. Our results show that highly (001) oriented [Fe45Pt55(8 nm)∕B4C (4 nm)]3 film with satisfactory perpendicular coercivity (4.75 kOe) has significant potential as a perpendicular recording medium.
