A sputtering apparatus using electron-cyclotron-resonance microwave plasma (ECR sputtering apparatus) was modified to increase the deposition rate of Co-Cr perpendicular magnetic anisotropy films. Microwave was introduced into plasma generation chamber in parallel to the magnetic field. The sputtering targets and the substrate were placed in an on-axis configuration. The deposition rate of 12.8 nm/min. was achieved using the modified ECR sputtering apparatus. It was found that a 40 nm thick Co-Cr, single-layered film with a perpendicular coercivity of 2000 Oe could be prepared using the apparatus.
