Nano-pattern design and technology for patterned media magnetic recording

About the patterned media magnetic recording technology, which is anticipated one of the new generation technologies to replace conventional perpendicular magnetic recording beyond 1Tb/in2, the technology back ground, two major options, performance expectations were discussed. Then the requirements for the template (mold) for the nano-imprint lithography, which is irreplaceable technology for pattern media, were discussed.
