ABSTRACT: Micromagnetic simulation study has been conducted on the perpendicular material ferromagnetic PtxMnySbz by completing Landau-Lifshift Gilbert equation. Choosen ferromagnetic material has some parameters such as anisotropy constant as large as 4.5×10 5 erg/cm 3, magnetic saturation of 2100 G, Curie temperature of 373 K, and finite-dimension of 50×50×10 nm3. The use of perpendicular anisotropy media with appropriate properties value are intended to increase the storage capacity of the hard disk without ignoring its thermal stabilty. At writing information, ferromagnetic material is induced by magnetic field for reversing the direction of magnetization and all at once also heated by thermal pulse which was designed matches closely the reality. To examine thermal fluctuation effects, twenty random number for magnetization was adopted in calculation and probability of magnetization reversal was introduced for determining the theshold field. Evaluation of reversal mechanism has been done for the variations of temperature of 299.0-372.9 K. Heating exceeds 368.0 K capable to lowering the threshold field up to 90 % through the declining of energy barrier. Investigation also has done for some heating interval i.e. 62.5-1000.0 ps on the temperature which approaches to Curie temperature. As a result, in a span of heating were yielded that reversal field required for reversing the direction of magnetization is only about 250-300 Oe
