Abstract
The effects of interface roughness of Ta seedlayer on the structural and magnetic properties of Co72Pt28(20 nm)/Ru(30 nm)/Pt(2 nm)/Ta(5 nm)/glass were investigated. Uniaxial perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (8.6×106 ergs/cc), coercivity (5.5 kOe) and nucleation field (−2.8 kOe) in the Co72Pt28 thin film sputter-deposited on relatively smooth surface of Ta seedlayer were achieved. The results showed that relatively smoother interface roughness of Ta seedlayer improved the CoPt/Ru (0 0 0 2) texture and magnetic properties.
