Thermophysical characterization of amorphous NiTa thin films for heat-assisted magnetic recording using frequency-domain thermoreflectance

The rapid global growth in data volume has intensified the need to increase the recording density of hard disk drives (HDDs) while reducing storage costs. Heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR), a next-generation HDD technology based on laser-induced heating, requires accurate t...
