A fully-automated pole-tip shape optimization tool, involving write head geometry construction, meshing, micromagnetic simulation and evaluation, is presented. Optimizations have been performed for three different writing schemes (centered, staggered and shingled) for an underlying bit patterned media with an areal density of 2.12 Tdots/in$^2$ . Optimizations were performed for a single-phase media with 10 nm thickness and a mag spacing of 8 nm. From the computed write field and its gradient and the minimum energy barrier during writing for islands on the adjacent track, the overall write error rate is computed. The overall write errors are 0.7, 0.08, and 2.8 x 10$^{-5}$ for centered writing, staggered writing, and shingled writing.

In this work we present a micromagnetic study of the performance potential of bit-patterned (BP) magnetic recording media via joint optimization of the design of the media and of the magnetic write heads. Because the design space is large and complex
, we developed a novel computational framework suitable for parallel implementation on compute clusters. Our technique combines advanced global optimization algorithms and finite-element micromagnetic solvers. Targeting data bit densities of $4mathrm{Tb}/mathrm{in}^2$, we optimize designs for centered, staggered, and shingled BP writing. The magnetization dynamics of the switching of the exchange-coupled composite BP islands of the media is treated micromagnetically. Our simulation framework takes into account not only the dynamics of on-track errors but also of the thermally induced adjacent-track erasure. With co-optimized write heads, the results show superior performance of shingled BP magnetic recording where we identify two particular designs achieving write bit-error rates of $1.5mathrm{x}10^{-8}$ and $8.4mathrm{x}10^{-8}$, respectively. A detailed description of the key design features of these designs is provided and contrasted with centered and staggered BP designs which yielded write bit error rates of only $2.8mathrm{x}10^{-3}$ (centered design) and $1.7mathrm{x}10^{-2}$ (staggered design) even under optimized conditions.
Bit Patterned Media (BPM) for magnetic recording provide a route to densities $>1 Tb/in^2$ and circumvents many of the challenges associated with conventional granular media technology. Instead of recording a bit on an ensemble of random grains, BPM
uses an array of lithographically defined isolated magnetic islands, each of which stores one bit. Fabrication of BPM is viewed as the greatest challenge for its commercialization. In this article we describe a BPM fabrication method which combines e-beam lithography, directed self-assembly of block copolymers, self-aligned double patterning, nanoimprint lithography, and ion milling to generate BPM based on CoCrPt alloys. This combination of fabrication technologies achieves feature sizes of $<10 nm$, significantly smaller than what conventional semiconductor nanofabrication methods can achieve. In contrast to earlier work which used hexagonal close-packed arrays of round islands, our latest approach creates BPM with rectangular bitcells, which are advantageous for integration with existing hard disk drive technology. The advantages of rectangular bits are analyzed from a theoretical and modeling point of view, and system integration requirements such as servo patterns, implementation of write synchronization, and providing for a stable head-disk interface are addressed in the context of experimental results. Optimization of magnetic alloy materials for thermal stability, writeability, and switching field distribution is discussed, and a new method for growing BPM islands on a patterned template is presented. New recording results at $1.6 Td/in^2$ (teradot/inch${}^2$, roughly equivalent to $1.3 Tb/in^2$) demonstrate a raw error rate $<10^{-2}$, which is consistent with the recording system requirements of modern hard drives. Extendibility of BPM to higher densities, and its eventual combination with energy assisted recording are explored.
We investigate the switching field distribution and the resulting bit error rate of exchange coupled ferri-/ferromagnetic bilayer island arrays by micromagnetic simulations. Using islands with varying microstructure and anisotropic properties, the in
trinsic switching field distribution is computed. The dipolar contribution to the switching field distribution is obtained separately by using a model of a triangular patterned island array resembling $1.4,mathrm{Tb/in}^2$ bit patterned media. Both contributions are computed for different thickness of the soft exchange coupled ferrimagnet and also for ferromagnetic single phase FePt islands. A bit patterned media with a bilayer structure of FeGd($5,mathrm{nm}$)/FePt($5,mathrm{nm}$) shows a bit error rate of $10^{-4}$ with a write field of $1.16,mathrm{T}$.
In this paper we apply an extended Landau-Lifschitz equation, as introduced by Bav{n}as et al. for the simulation of heat-assisted magnetic recording. This equation has similarities with the Landau-Lifshitz-Bloch equation. The Bav{n}as equation is su
pposed to be used in a continuum setting with sub-grain discretization by the finite-element method. Thus, local geometric features and nonuniform magnetic states during switching are taken into account. We implement the Bav{n}as model and test its capability for predicting the recording performance in a realistic recording scenario. By performing recording simulations on 100 media slabs with randomized granular structure and consecutive read back calculation, the write position shift and transition jitter for bit lengths of 10nm, 12nm, and 20nm are calculated.
The reduction of the transition curvature of written bits in heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) is expected to play an important role for the future areal density increase of hard disk drives. Recently a write head design with flipped write and
return poles was proposed. In this design a large spatial field gradient of the write head was the key to significantly reduce the transition curvature. In this work we optimized the write pole of a heat-assisted magnetic recording head in order to produce large field gradients as well as large fields in the region of the heat pulse. This is done by topology optimization. The simulations are performed with dolfin-adjoint. For the maximum field gradients of $8.1,$mT/nm, $8.6,$mT/nm and $11.8,$mT/nm, locally resolved footprints of an FePt like hard magnetic recording medium are computed with a coarse-grained Landau-Lifshitz-Bloch (LLB) model and the resulting transition curvature is analysed. Additional simulations with a bilayer structure with $50%$ hard and $50%$ soft magnetic material are computed. The results show that for both recording media, the optimized head design does not lead to any significant improvement of the written track. Thus, we analyse the transition curvature for the optimized write heads theoretically with an effective recording time window (ERTW) model. Moreover, we check how higher field gradients influence the curvature reduction. The results show that a simple optimization of the conventional head design design is not sufficient for effective curvature reduction. Instead, new head concepts will be needed to reduce transition curvature.
