    Abstract: A single bridge magnetic field sensor includes a fluxguide mounted to a surface of a substrate. A bridge unit includes first, second, third, and fourth magnetoresistive elements mounted around the fluxguide and mounted on the surface of the substrate. A switching circuit is electrically connected to two voltage inputs, two grounding terminals, two voltage output terminals, and the four magnetoresistive elements. The switching circuit can proceed with circuit switching according to a magnetic field in each axis direction to be measured, thereby changing electrical connection between the voltage inputs, the grounding terminals, the voltage output terminals, and the four magnetoresistive elements. A measuring unit is electrically connected to the two voltage output terminals and the four magnetoresistive elements. The magnetoresistances of the four magnetoresistive elements measured by the measuring unit and output voltages of the voltage output terminals can be used to obtain a magnetic field measurement result.

    Abstract: The present invention includes that using single layer amorphous CoTbAg thin films as heat assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) media, and the method for producing these CoTbAg amorphous thin films. Co69.48−XTb30.52AgX films with x=0˜25.68 at. % are fabricated by DC or RF magnetron sputtering and rotating substrate. Two kinds of targets can be used. One is the CoTbAg alloy target. The other one consists of Co, Tb and Ag three targets. The CoTbAg film is prepared by co-sputtering of Co, Tb and Ag targets. The film composition can be controlled by changing the sputtering power density of each target. CoTbAg films are deposited on glass substrate or nature-oxide silicon wafer at room temperature. These films have high saturation magnetization and high perpendicular coercivity. They have amorphous structure and can be applied to HAMR media.
