Abstract
An electrochemical and environmental chamber study of the effects of corrosion on the magnetic properties of various cobalt chromium thin-film compositions is reported. The propensity of these various materials towards corrosion is delineated, with suggestions for an optimum composition with respect to corrosion resistance. The effects of the presence of a titanium seed layer and those of a soft nickel/iron keeper layer on the corrosion resistance of the recording medium are studied.Keywords
