Abstract
Media according to the present invention is comprised of individual magnetic grains as small as 300 .ANG. or smaller in diameter, which are uniformly spaced apart by a distance between 5 and 50 .ANG. by a solid segregant. This media will typically exhibit coercivity and remanent coercivity squareness of at least 0.8 each, a switching field distribution of less than 0.2, and a coercivity of at least 1500 Oe (with a minimum required Pt content), while simultaneously providing the lowest media jitter noise for optimum magnetic performance. The media is deposited at a low partial pressure of water and in the presence of an optimum amount of contributant gas on a doped nucleation layer for grain growth control.
