Multilayer magnetic recording to realize high-density hard disk drives

Tuesday, July 7, 2015 - 07:50 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers at Toshiba have demonstrated a new technology in which microwave magnetic fields are used to reverse magnetization directions by selecting layers in a multilayer magnetic medium. The developed magnetization reversal technology is expected to realize increased hard disk drive (HDD) capacity by adopting high-density, multilayer (three-dimensional) magnetic recording media.
