This paper proposes a density method based topology optimization of a perpendicular magnetic recording system design in which the saturation effect is taken into account. During the topology optimization process in magnetic fields, the magnetic reluctivity is updated in accordance with the changes in element density determined by a sensitivity analysis. The magnetic reluctivity is determined from a B-H curve and is used to represent nonlinear material property, i.e., the saturation effect. The sensitivity for a generalized response functional is formulated using the adjoint variable method in which the nonlinear property is taken into account and the objective function is set such that the magnetic energy in the media is maximized. Effects due to the nonlinear property can be observed from a numerical study in which the linear and the nonlinear topology optimization results are compared.

Co-Pd alloy thin films prepared by a DC-sputter that have self-organized nano structure(SONS), are promising for high-density information storage media in information era. We prepared the samples by varying Pd contents of 0~8.1 wt% at the substrate temperatures of room temperature (RT) and 200 $^{\circ}C$, respectively Microstructure and Pd contents of the Co$_{1-x}$ Pd$_{x}$ films are probed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM), a transmission electron microscope (TEM) and an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). We also investigated the saturation magnetization (Ms), remanence and coercivity of the Co$_{1-x}$ Pd$_{x}$ films. Surface roughness are measured by an atomic force microscope (AFM). We revealed that self-organized nano size Co-enriched phase and Pd-enriched phase existed with Pd contents at the substrate temperatures of RT and 20$0^{\circ}C$ through microstructure characterization. SONS helped to keep the saturation magnetization and enhance the perpendicular anisotropy with Pd contents. Out result implies that we may tune the perpendicular magnetic properties with keeping the saturation magnetization by varying substrate temperatures and Pd contents for high density magnetic recording.rding.

Amorphous ferrites with composition B2O3-mBaO-nFe2O3 were prepared by an ultra rapidquenching technique. X-ray patterns and SEM reveal the products to be amrophous at room temperature. BaFe12O19 fine particles extracted from amorphous Ba-ferrites which additived Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2 and CoO have narrow size distribution, average 0.2$\mu\textrm{m}$, and coercive force, average 1400 Oe, increased with increasing TiO2 amounts. The obtained BeFe12O19 fine particles would be appreciated as perpendicular magnetic recording media.

The bi-layered films composed of Co-Cr-Ta layers and paramagnetic $Co_{67}Cr_{33}$ underlayer were deposited by suing Facing Targets Sputtering(FTS). The effects of $Co_{67}Cr_{33}$ underlayer on the crystallographic and magnetic characteristics of the Co-Cr-Ta layer deposited on the underlayer was investigated. The diffraction intensity $I_{p(002)}$ of Co-Cr-Ta layers on the $Co_{67}Cr_{33}$ layer was stronger than that of single layer and Co-Cr-Ta/Ti double layer. Therefore, the crystallinity of Co-Cr-Ta layer was imporved by the $Co_{67}Cr_{33}$ underlayer rather than Ti ones. However, te coercivity H$_{c\bot}$ of Co-Cr-Ta layers deposited on $Co_{67}Cr_{33}$ underlayer was as low as 250 Oe even at substrate temperature of $220^{\circ}C$. This H$_{c\bot}$ decrease seems to be attributed to the effect of the $Co_{67}Cr_{33}$ underlayer as well as interval time between deposition of the underlayer and the Co-Cr-Ta layer.

We prepared $Co_{77}Cr_{20}Ta_{3}$ thin film with Facing Targets Sputtering Apparatus. which can deposit a high quality thin film CoCrTa magnetic layer for Perpendicular magnetic recording media. In order to obtain Good Crystal orientation of CoCrTa thin films. We prepared Thin Films on slide glass substrate. The thickness of Buffer-layer were varied from 10 to 50 nm and Magnetic layer thickness fixed 100[nm]. input current was varied from 0.2[A] to 0.5[A]. Substrate temperature was varied from room temperature to ${250^{\circ}C}$ respectively. The crystal orientation of the CoCrTa film were examined with XRD. Introduce Buffer-layer thin films showed improvement of dispersion angle of c-axis orientation (${\Delta\theta}_{50}$).

Co-Zn ferrite thin films grown on thermally oxidized silicon wafers were fabricated by a sol-gel method. Magnetic and structural properties of Co-Zn thin films were investigated by using x-ray diffractometer (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Co-Zn ferrite thin films annealed at 400 $^{\circ}C$ presented have only a single phase spinel structure without any preferred crystallite orientation. Their surface roughness of Co-Zn ferrite thin films was shown as less than 3 nm and the grain size was about 40 nm for annealing temperatures over 600 $^{\circ}C$. A moderate saturation magnetization of Co-Zn ferrite thin films for recording media was obtained in this study and there is no significant difference of their magnetic property with those external fields of parallel and perpendicular to planes of the films. The maximum value of the coercivity was obtained as 1,900 Oe for Co-Zn ferrite thin film annealed at 600 $^{\circ}C$.
