Claims20
A method comprising:
- depositing a plasmonic material at a temperature of at least 150° C.;
- and
- forming at least a peg of a near field transducer (NFT) from the deposited plasmonic material.
A near field transducer (NFT) comprising:
- a peg, the peg having an average grain size of not less than 75 nm.
A method comprising:
- depositing a plasmonic material at a temperature of at least 150° C.;
- and
- forming at least a peg of a near field transducer (NFT) from the deposited plasmonic material,
- wherein neither the deposited material is annealed nor the peg is annealed once formed, and the peg has an average grain size of not less than 50 nm.
