CoFe alloy thin films were studied with the intention of potential use as a soft underlayer (SUL) for Co-based perpendicular recording media. The effect of composition and the effects of seedlayers on the formation of crystalline phase and crystallographic texture and the magnetic properties were investigated. Films deposited on Ta/Pd seedlayer were found to have a good FCC(111) texture than those deposited on glass substrates or on Ta seedlayers. The magnetic properties were also better when deposited on Ta/Pd seedlayers. On these seedlayers, Fe concentration of 15at% was found to be suitable for the formation of FCC phase. Disks were prepared with CoFe SULs. The noise of CoFe SUL is one of the challenges to be solved.
