Abstract

The embodiments disclose a patterned composite magnetic layer structure configured to use magnetic materials having differing temperature and magnetization characteristics in a recording device, wherein the patterned composite magnetic layer structure includes magnetic layers, at least one first magnetic material configured to be used in a particular order to reduce a recording temperature and configured to control and regulate coupling and decoupling of the magnetic layers and at least one second magnetic material with differing temperature characteristics is configured to control recording and erasing of data.
