A perpendicular magnetic recording medium at least comprises a perpendicular magnetic recording layer and a backing layer backing the perpendicular magnetic recording layer. The backing layer has an in-plane magnetization and is formed of a ferrimagnetic material having a compensation temperature in the vicinity of a recording/reproducing temperature in which reproducing of magnetic information is made from the perpendicular magnetic recording layer. A magnetic storage apparatus for recording and reproducing magnetic information using the perpendicular magnetic recording medium is also disclosed.

A layered polycrystalline structure includes a seed crystal or Cr layer containing non-magnetic Cr atoms. A non-magnetic crystal layer such as a Co65Cr35 layer is formed on the exposed surface of the seed crystal layer. A magnetic crystal layer such as a co88Pt12 layer is formed on the exposed surface of the non-magnetic crystal layer. Heat treatment induces the diffusion of the Cr atoms along the grain boundaries within the magnetic crystal layer. Walls of a non-magnetic material can be established along the grain boundaries in the magnetic crystal layer. The diffusion of the Cr atoms can sufficiently be suppressed within the lattices of the magnetic crystal grains. Generation of an incomplete non-magnetic region can thus be restrained to the utmost within the magnetic crystal layer. Noise can be reduced in reproduction of a magnetic information data.

A magnetic recording medium includes; a base member; an underlayer formed on the base member; a main recording layer formed on the underlayer, and a writing assist layer formed on or under the main recording layer in contact with the main recording layer. The main recording layer has perpendicular magnetic anisotropy with an anisotropic magnetic field of Hk1 and an inclination of a reversal part of a magnetization curve of a1. The writing assist layer has an anisotropic magnetic field of Hk2 and an inclination of a reversal part of a magnetization curve of a2. The anisotropic magnetic fields Hk1 and Hk2 and the inclinations a1 and a2 satisfy Hk1>Hk2 and a2>a1.

A magnetic recording medium and a magnetic recording device using the same. The magnetic recording medium has a nonmagnetic substrate having applied thereon, through a crystal orientation-improving layer and a seed layer, a magnetic recording layer. The seed layer consists of a material having a higher surface energy than that of the crystal orientation-improving layer.

A perpendicular magnetic recording medium including a substrate, a roughness control layer provided on the substrate and having a rough surface with a grain size of 5 to 20 nm and an average roughness (Ra) of 0.2 to 2.0 nm, and an orientation control layer provided on the roughness control layer and containing 30 at % or more of metal solely having an fcc structure. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium further includes a magnetic recording layer having perpendicular magnetic anisotropy provided on the orientation control layer in contact therewith. The magnetic recording layer is formed from a multilayer film composed of ferromagnetic thin films and nonmagnetic thin films alternately stacked.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium with a high recording density has a first ferromagnetic layer, a non-magnetic layer, and a second ferromagnetic layer successively deposited as the recording layer on a non-magnetic substrate. The recording layer is heated in concentric circular shapes to divide it into regions in which the magnetic interactions between the ferromagnetic layers exhibit ferromagnetism and regions that exhibit anti-ferromagnetism. The ferromagnetic regions are used for recording tracks, and the anti-ferromagnetic regions function as guard bands. In this manner track density is increased without roughening the surface of the recording medium.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium having a high magnetic pattern contrast is manufactured. By changing an acceleration voltage that accelerates ions in a process gas, depths (peak depths D0 and D1) from a magnetic layer 44, at which an injection amount of a target element is the maximum, can be made with set depths even if a film thickness of an ion permeation portion 48, which is a thin film portion of a resist 49, decreases. Since the set depths are achieved for the peak depths D0 and D1, a portion to be processed 43 of the magnetic film 44 is made non-magnetized from a top surface to a bottom surface, and a magnetic portion is separated; thus, the magnetic recording medium with a high magnetic pattern contrast can be obtained.
