In odder to investigate the magnetic properties of CoCr-based bilayered thin films on kind of underlayer, we introduced amorphous Si layer to Co-Cr(-Ta) magnetic layer as underlayer. First, we prepared CoCr and CoCrTa single layer using the Facing Targets Sputtering system to investigate theirs properties. It was revealed that with increasing the film thickness of CoCr, CoCrTa single layer, crystalline orientation and perpendicular coercivity was improved. The CoCrTa thin film showed bettor crystalline and magnetic characteristics than CoCr thin film. As a result of investigating magnetic properties of CoCr and CoCrTa magnetic layer on introducing the Si underlayer, perpendicular coercivity and saturation magnetization of CoCr/Si and CoCrTa/Si bilayered thin film were decreased due to the increased grain size and diffusion of Si atoms to magnetic layer. And they showed constant with increasing the film thickness of Si thin film. However, in case of CoCrTa/Si bilayered thin film, in-plane coercivity was controlled low at about 250Oe. The c-axis orientations of CoCr/si and CoCrTa/Si bilayered thin film showed a good crystalline characteristics as about $2^{\circ}$.

In order to investigate the magnetic properties of CoCr-based bilayered thin films on kind of underlayer, we introduced amorphous Si layer to Co-Cr(-Ta) magnetic layer as underlayer. With the thickness of CoCr, CoCrTa single layer, crystalline orientation and perpendicular coercivity was improved. It was revealed that by introducing the Si underlayer, the c-axis orientation of CoCr, CoCrTa magnetic layer was improved largely. However, with increasing Si film thickness, perpendicular coercivity and saturation magnetization of Cocr/si, CoCrTa/Si bilayered thin films was decreased. Grain size of bilayered thin films became larger.

Crystallographic and magnetic characteristics of CoCr-based magnetic thin film for perpendicular magnetic recording media were influenced on preparing conditions. In these, there is that substrate temperature was parameter that increases perpendicular coercivity of CoCrTa magnetic layer using recording layer. While preparation of CoCr-based doublelayer, by optimizing substrate temperature, we expect to increase perpendicular anisotropy of CoCr magnetic layer and prepare ferromagnetic recording layer with a good quality by epitaxial growth. CoCrTa/Si doublelayer showed a good dispersion angle of c-axis orientation $\Delta$$\theta$$_{50}$ caused by inserting amorphous Si underlayer which prepared at underlayer substrate temperature 250C. Perpendicular coercivity was constant, in-plane coercivity was controlled a low value about 2000e. This result implied that Si underlayer could restrain growth of initial layer of CoCrTa thin film, which showed bad magnetic properties effectively without participating magnetization patterns of magnetic layer. In case of CoCrTa/Si that prepared with ultra thin underlayer, crystalline orientation of CoCrTa was improved rather underlayer thickness 1nm, it was expected that amorphous Si layer played a important role in not only underlayer but also seed layer.t also seed layer.r.

We prepared Co-Cr-Ta and Co-Cr-Ta/Ti thin film for perpendicular magnetic recording media by facing targets sputtering system (FTS system). Ti underlayer effects on crystallographic and magnetic characteristics of Co-Cr-Ta perpendicular magnetic recording media have been investigated. Crystallgraphic and magnetic characteristic of prepared thin films were evaluated by x-ray diffractometry(XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM) and kerr hysteresis loop measurement. The coercivity and anisotropy field increase by introduced Ti underlayer when substrate temperature is higher than 150$^{\circ}C$. The c-axis dispersion angle and grain size of Co-Cr-Ta/Ti thin film is decrease than Co-Cr-Ta when substrate temperature is higher than 100$^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the use of a Ti underlayer highly orientated can be improved crystallographic and magnetic characteristics of Co-Cr -Ta perpendicular media layer.

Thin CoCrTa/Cr films were deposited on glass substrates at $280^{\circ}C$ with or without Al underlayer. The coercivity of CoCrTa increased considerably by introducing an Al underlayer. The grain size of Cr thin film deposited on Al underlayer became smaller than that of Cr thin film deposited on glass substrate. The grain size of CoCrTa thin film was determined by Cr grain size. The cause of the coercivity increase seems to be associated with the refinement and uniform distribution of CoCrTa grains.

Crystallographic and magnetic characteristics of CoCr-based magnetic thin film for perpendicular magnetic recording media were influenced on preparing conditions. In these, there is that substrate temperature was parameter that increases perpendicular coercivity of CoCrTa magnetic layer using recording layer. While preparation of CoCr-based doublelayer, by optimizing substrate temperature, we expect to increase perpendicular anisotropy of CoCr magnetic layer and prepare ferromagnetic recording layer with a good quality by epitaxial growth. CoCrTa/Si doublelayer showed a good dispersion angle of c-axis orientation $\Delta\theta_{50}$ caused by inserting amorphous Si underlayer which prepared at underlayer substrate temperature 250C. Perpendicular coercivity was constant, in-plane coercivity was controlled a low value about 200Oe. This result implied that Si underlayer could restrain growth of initial layer of CoCrTa thin film, which showed bad magnetic properties effectively without participating magnetization patterns of magnetic layer.

Ta을 미량 첨가한 Co-Cr-Ta 박막의 높은 수직보자력의 원인을 알아보기위하여 회전우력자력계 (torque magnetometer)와 진동시료형 자력계(VSM)를 이용하여 Co-Cr 박막과 Co-Cr-Ta 박막의 수직자기이방 성에너지를 조사하였다. Co/sub 81.7/Cr/sub 16.7/Ta/sub 1.6/ 박막의 수직이방성에너지는 동일 기판온도에 서 성막한, 비슷한 용질원자량의 Co/sub 81/Cr/sub 19/ 박막보다 높았다. 그 원인을 분석하기 위하여 as- sputtered 상태의 박막들을 annealing 처리한 후 수직자기이방성에너지의 변화를 조사하였다. annealing 처 리에 의해 수직자기이방성에너지는 감소하였다. 이러한 annealing 처리에 의한 수직자기이방성에너지의 감 소량은 CoCrTa 박막의 경우 더 켰으며, annealing 처리후의 수직자기이방성에너지는 이원계 및 삼원계 박막 에서 비슷한 값을 보였다. 이는 Ta 첨가에 의해 as-sputtered 박막내 용질원자의 편석(segregation) 정도가 증가하며, 이러한 편석 의 증가로 박막내에 형태자기이방성의 기여가 증가하여 수직자기이방성에너지의 증가가 있었던 것으로 해석 된다. 또한 이 러한 용질원자의 편석의 증가에 의한 수직자기이방성에너지의 증가로 박막의 보자력도 증가 한 것으로 생각된다.

CoCrTa/Cr 자성박막의 Cr 하지층에 Mo와 Si을 첨가하여 제조한 박막의 자기적 성질에 미치는 Mo와 Si의 영향에 대하여 조사하였다. 증착시 사용된 장비는 DC magnetron sputtering system이었고, CoCrTa 자성층의 두께는 30.0$\AA$으로 Cr 하지층의 두께는 700$\AA$으로 고정하였으며 기판의 가열온도는 26$0^{\circ}C$이었다. CrMo 하지층의 박막이 순수한 Cr 하지층에 비하여 약 200 Oe의 보자력 증가를 나타내었다. 하지만 Si을 첨가하였을 경우엔 첨가량의 증가에 따라 보자력이 점차 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. CrMo 하지층에서는Mo를 첨가함에 따라 Cr 하지츠의 (200)면의 결정배향성이 증가하였고, Mo를 첨가한 Cr(200)과 CoCrTa(110)의lattice misfit가 Si을 첨가한 경우보다 작았고, 이것이 보자력 증가의 원인이었다.
