Paper Abstract
Bit patterned media (BPM) is a promising candidate for next-generation magnetic recording media beyond 2.5 Tb/in2. To realize such high-density patterned media, directed self-assembling (DSA) technology is a possible solution to form fine dots. In order to read and write magnetic signals on a magnetic dot of magnetic media, the position of magnetic dots must be controlled. We examined ordering of directed self-assembly of diblock copolymer dots with a variety of prepatterned guides in some conditions and evaluated the ordering of the dots by using Delaunay triangulation and Voronoi diagram. Applying the optimized conditions, we obtained highly controlled dot pattern suitable for magnetic recording media.
