The influence of the deposition of an ultrathin Ag top layer on the structure and magnetic properties of FePt thin films has been investigated. Crystallographic ordering of the L10 face-centered-tetragonal (fct) FePt phase was significantly promoted when a Ag layer was deposited on top of the film. The increased fraction of hard magnetic L10 fct FePt phase led to a dramatic increase of coercivity from 1 to about 6.0 kOe. The δM curves suggested exchange decoupling of magnetic grains. A perpendicular FePt film with a coercivity of 5.0 kOe and remanent squareness of 0.98 was achieved with a CrRu underlayer and the Ag top layer. © 2003 American Institute of Physics.
