Abstract

High thermal gradient heatsinks for heat assisted magnetic recording media are provided. One example magnetic recording medium for heat assisted magnetic recording includes a substrate, a first seed layer on the substrate, a heatsink layer on the first seed layer and including Ru having a crystal texture of (11.0), a second seed layer on the heatsink layer, and a magnetic recording layer on the second seed layer. Methods for manufacturing such magnetic recording media are also disclosed.
