==MEDIA STRUCTURE CONFIGURED FOR HEAT-ASSISTED MAGNETIC RECORDING AND IMPROVED MEDIA FABRICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17945747 titled 'MEDIA STRUCTURE CONFIGURED FOR HEAT-ASSISTED MAGNETIC RECORDING AND IMPROVED MEDIA FABRICATION

==Simplified Explanation==

Various apparatuses, systems, methods, and media are disclosed to provide a heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) medium. A magnetic recording medium includes a substrate, a heat sink layer on the substrate, and an underlayer on the heat sink layer. The underlayer includes an amount of an electrically conductive material between about 20 mole percent (mol %) and about 100 mol %. The magnetic recording medium further includes a plurality of magnetic recording layers on the underlayer. The plurality of magnetic recording layers includes a first magnetic recording layer that comprises FePt—Ag—X, wherein X is an oxide.

* The patent application discloses a heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) medium with specific layers and materials to enhance recording capabilities.
* The underlayer of the medium contains an electrically conductive material within a specific range of mole percent.
* The magnetic recording layers include a first layer with a specific composition of FePt—Ag—X, where X is an oxide.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology could be applied in:
* Data storage devices
* Magnetic recording systems

== Problems Solved ==
* Enhanced recording capabilities
* Improved data storage density

== Benefits ==
* Higher data storage capacity
* Increased data transfer speeds

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
Optimizing Data Storage Technology for Improved Efficiency

== Possible Prior Art ==
One possible prior art could be the development of magnetic recording media with specific layer compositions for improved recording performance.
