We examine the magnetic properties and recording performance of bit patterned exchange coupled composite (ECC) magnetic media at different bit and island aspect ratios. The ECC media consists of Co/Pd and Co/Ni multilayers whose coupling is controlled using Pd interlayers. We show that this multilayer system can be tuned to provide writeable media with a low switching field distribution for bit patterned magnetic recording. The recording performance of 100 Gb/in2 media shows a sub 1e-4 bit error rate floor and misregistration errors that are well-described by a simple error model.
