A recording medium including a perpendicular magnetic recording layer and a laminated SUL formed on a substrate is provided. The SUL includes an antiferromagnetic layer interposed between laminated structures including a magnetic layer, a non-magnetic layer and a magnetic layer. The layers may each have a thickness of 20 nm or less and the layers below the antiferromagnetic layer may be thinner than the layers on the antiferromagnetic layer. The laminated structures formed on and below the antiferromagnetic layer have unidirectional magnetic anisotropies set in the opposite radial direction to each other by an exchange bias. As a result, media magnetic domain noise can be diminished.

A perpendicular magnetic recording medium including: a substrate; a perpendicular magnetic recording layer disposed over the substrate; a soft magnetic underlayer disposed between the substrate and the perpendicular magnetic recording layer; a shunting layer disposed under the soft magnetic underlayer; and an isolation layer disposed between the soft magnetic underlayer and the shunting layer and providing magnetic isolation between the shunting layer and the other layers disposed over the shunting layer are provided. The shunting layer is magnetically separated from the other magnetic layers disposed over the shunting layer, and shunts a magnetic field generated by the magnetic domain walls of the soft magnetic underlayer such that the magnetic field cannot reach a magnetic head, thereby increasing a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

An information storage device includes a record head and a data recording medium. The record head includes a magnetic substance having magnetic domain walls and records data in the data recording medium. In a method of operating the information storage device, a first high frequency current or a high frequency magnetic field is supplied to the magnetic substance while magnetic domain walls of the magnetic substance are moved.

A magnetic recording medium is provided. The magnetic recording medium includes: a substrate; a perpendicular magnetic recording layer which is formed over the substrate; a first soft magnetic underlayer which is disposed between the perpendicular magnetic recording layer and the substrate; a second soft magnetic underlayer which is disposed between the first soft magnetic underlayer and the perpendicular magnetic recording layer; and an isolation layer which is disposed between the first soft magnetic underlayer and the second magnetic layer and which prevents magnetic interaction between the first soft magnetic underlayer and the second soft magnetic underlayer, wherein anisotropy field Hk of the second soft magnetic underlayer is greater than anisotropy field Hk of the first soft magnetic underlayer.

Provided is a perpendicular magnetic recording medium. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium includes: a lower structure; and a recording layer formed on the lower structure, wherein the recording layer has a balancing force 2πMr2/K1 of 0.5 or less and a factor 4πMr/Hc of 0.8 or less where Mr denotes a remnant magnetization, K1 denotes a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy energy constant, and Hc denotes a coercive force. Accordingly, even though grain boundaries between grains that constitute the recording layer are somewhat non-uniform in width, the grains can have almost the same nucleation field. As a result, the perpendicular magnetic recording medium can ensure high recording density and stability of recorded information.
