摘要:
The disclosed invention provides a high-reliability magnetic recording apparatus, magnetic recording medium, and a method of manufacturing such a medium in a high-density magnetic recording apparatus which comprises a magnetic disk revolving at a high speed and a magnetic head which flies as low as possible over the magnetic disk. A lubricant layer formed on the outermost surface of a magnetic recording medium is constituted by a lubricant which comprises fluoropolyether as the principal ingredient. The fluoropolyether lubricant is characterized in that alcohol hydration distribution which corresponds to difference between the greatest and smallest alcohol valences among the component molecules of the fluoropolyether is adjusted to 0.48 or less and an average alcohol valence among the component molecules is adjusted to fall within a range of 3.00 to 3.91.
摘要:
This magnetic recording medium is characterized in that in the magnetic recording medium having a magnetic layer on a non-magnetic substrate by intercalating at least an under layer, the proportion of functional groups per 100 carbon atoms in a diamond-like carbon protective layer mainly composed of carbon for protecting the magnetic layer exceeds 20%. The bonding force between the protective layer and the lubricating layer of the magnetic recording medium is increased so that under high speed rotation, a decrease in the lubricating layer is not caused so as to provide a magnetic recording apparatus having high reliability.

摘要:
A method for manufacturing a magnetic recording medium includes forming a first protective layer of first material over a magnetic film provided on a substrate. The first protective layer has a thickness of about 0.2 nm to about 2 nm. A second protective layer of second material is formed over the first protective layer by driving ions of the second material into the first protective layer. The first protective layer is configured to prevent the ions of the second material from penetrating into the magnetic film.
