    摘要: Disclosed here is a perpendicular magnetic recording medium for realizing a high media S/N value without degrading the magnetic isolation of crystal grains from each another. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium comprises a substrate, a soft magnetic underlayer formed on the substrate, an intermediate layer formed on the soft magnetic underlayer, and a magnetic recording layer formed on the intermediate layer. The intermediate layer consists of at least two or more layers and contains Ru or an Ru alloy and the magnetic recording layer is made of a material containing a CoCrPt alloy and oxygen. The crystallo graphic orientation of the recording layer can be improved enough without increasing the crystal grain size if a full width at half-maximum Δθ50 of the Rocking curves of the Ru (0002) diffraction peak measured by an X-ray diffraction method is 5° and under.

    摘要: A perpendicular magnetic recording medium includes an intermediate film formed of a plurality of layers between a soft magnetic film and a perpendicular magnetization film. The intermediate film includes at least two layers, i.e., an oxygen-containing layer, or a nonmetallic element-containing layer containing nitrogen, silicon or carbon, and a metallic layer formed on a surface side of the oxygen-containing layer or the nonmetallic element-containing layer. The metallic layer includes a plurality of isolated island-shaped structures. Crystal grains of the perpendicular magnetization film are formed so as to correspond to the isolated island-shaped structures. As a result, a high recording density is obtained.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention help allow accurate control of the magnetization reversal in a magnetic recording layer in small reversal units, whereby high-density recording can be achieved. According to one embodiment, by forming an intermediate layer having a granular structure similar to that of the magnetic recording layer below the magnetic recording layer, a continuous crystal grain boundary is formed at the interface between the magnetic recording layer and the intermediate layer, thereby preventing incomplete formation of the crystal grain boundary found in the initial growth layer of the magnetic recording layer. The intermediate layer comprises a non-magnetic alloy comprising Co and Cr as its main components and an oxide such as Al, Cr, Hf. Mg, Nb, Si, Ta, Ti and Zr. Further, the average content of the oxygen element in the intermediate layer is in the range from 6 at % to 20 at %.

    摘要: Embodiments in accordance with the present invention provide a perpendicular recording medium with low noise and high recording density by reducing the effects from noise generated from the vicinity of the interface with the intermediate layer of the recording layer, in a perpendicular recording medium utilizing a granular recording layer containing oxygen or oxide additive in a cobalt-chromium alloy formed on an intermediate layer with a ruthenium or ruthenium alloy layer. A first recording layer and a second recording layer are formed in order on an intermediate layer of ruthenium or ruthenium alloy. The first recording layer and the second recording layer are comprised of cobalt as the main material in a granular structure containing chromium and oxygen. The saturation magnetization of the first recording layer is lower than the saturation magnetization of the second recording layer. When a first recording layer saturation magnetization is set as Ms1(emu per cubic centimeter), a second recording layer saturation magnetization is set as Ms2(emu per cubic centimeter), and the first recording layer film thickness is set to t1 (nm), then (Ms2−Ms1)×t1 will be larger than 0 (memu per square centimeter) and smaller than 0.15 (memu per square centimeter).
