Abstract
Crystallographic and magnetic properties are investigated for Co-Cr-Pt/Cr-T i longitudinal media fabricated on MgO seedlayers (t = 0 - 20 nm) prepared by Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) sputtering method. The MgO layer depo sited at room temperature shows well developed {100} texture. Highly (100)- oriented Cr-Ti and (11.0)-oriented Co-Cr-Pt layers are epitaxially grown on the seedlayers, The media coercivity is enhanced by about 15% compared wit h that with no MgO seedlayer.
