Abstract

A new magnetic nanodot (MND) memory with FePt nanodots was proposed. The FePt nanodots dispersed in SiO₂ insulating film was successfully fabricated by self-assembled nanodot deposition (SAND). The size of the FePt nanodot can be controlled by SAND with a different target area ratio of the FePt pellets area in the SiO₂ target. Thermal annealing converts the magnetic properties of the FePt nanodots from antiferromagnetic into high coercivity ferromagnetic without thermal agglomeration. An L1₀ face-centered tetragonal (fct) FePt MND film was successfully formed which acted as a charge retention layer. Furthermore, the fundamental characteristics of the MND memory were investigated using magnetic metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) capacitor devices.
