Abstract

In order to attain high-rate deposition of Mn-Zn ferrite thin film for soft magnetic underlayer in perpendicular magnetic recording media, a reactive sputtering using powder-metal targets under the mixture gas of Ar and $O_{2}$ was performed. It was succeeded that Mn-Zn ferrite films with (111) crystal orientation were deposited on Pt(111) underlayer without any annealing process. The film revealed 3.4 kG of 4 ${\pi}Ms$, 70 Oe of coercivity. The deposition rate of the new method was 16 times as high as that of the conventional method using ferrite target.
