Electric field writing magnetic storage device

Abstract

An electric field writing magnetic storage device including: a rotatable disk including a substrate and a magnetic recording film provided on a surface of the substrate, the magnetic recording film including at least one ferromagnetic and ferroelectric layer; a writing device writing information into the magnetic recording film by means of an electric field, the writing device including a writing electrode generating a dielectric flux between the writing electrode and the substrate by having electric potential to the substrate; and a writing circuit choosing one electric potential among plurality of electric potential level and applying the chosen one electric potential to the writing electrode in every operation of writing information, wherein the dielectric flux generated according to the electric potential applied to the writing electrode by the writing circuit magnetizes the ferromagnetic and ferroelectric layer in a specific direction.
