Abstract:
A perpendicular magnetic recording medium is disclosed that includes a recording layer having a columnar granular structure possessing an appropriate diameter distribution and uniform arrangement of magnetic particles. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium includes a substrate, and a soft-magnetic underlayer, a seed layer, an underlayer, a recording layer, a protection film, and a lubrication layer stacked on the substrate in order. The underlayer includes granular crystals formed from Ru or a Ru alloy and interstices separating the granular crystals from each other so as to isolate individual granular crystals. A continuing film formed from Ru or Ru alloys may be provided below the underlayer.
