研究目的
To address the issue of NFT self-heating in HAMR technology, which significantly reduces write-head lifetimes, by deriving fundamental limits on the NFT/media temperature ratio and employing inverse electromagnetic design software to reduce NFT self-heating.
研究成果
The proposed fat NFT with a large solid angle of heat conduction and computationally generated waveguide patterns offer a 50% reduction in NFT self-heating compared with typical industry designs, potentially improving HAMR write head lifetimes significantly.
研究不足
The study is computationally demanding, requiring high-performance computing resources. The exact waveguide mode and material properties in commercial products must be accounted for in the optimization.
