Granular Recording Media

Manifestation of higher-order inter-granular exchange in magnetic recording media

All-optical switching in granular ferromagnets caused by magnetic circular dichroism

Magnetic recording using circularly polarized femto-second laser pulses is an emerging technology that would allow write speeds much faster than existing field driven methods. However, the mechanism that drives the magnetization switching in …
