    摘要: A magnetic recording medium comprises, on a substrate, a soft magnetic layer, a first seed layer, a second seed layer, and a recording layer having an artificial lattice structure. The first seed layer contains oxide of Fe. The second seed layer contains one of Pd and Pt, Si, and N. The magnetic exchange coupling force in the in-plane direction of the recording layer is weakened by the first seed layer and the second seed layer. Accordingly, minute recording magnetic domains can be formed in the recording layer, and the magnetization transition area is distinct as well. Even when information is recorded at a high density, the information can be reproduced with low noise. A magnetic storage apparatus, which is provided with such a magnetic recording medium, makes it possible to achieve an areal recording density of 150 gigabits/square inch.

    摘要: A recording and reproducing apparatus including a recording magnetic head and a reproducing magnetic head with their floating height lowered for high density recordation and reproduction is provided. An information recording medium is provided on which it is possible to densely record information and from which it is possible to densely reproduce information by lowering the floating height of the recording and reproducing heads. The information recording medium includes a flat substrate and a recording layer provided on the substrate. Servo patterns and management information are recorded as magnetic marks on the recording layer in advance by a servo writer or the like. Because the substrate needs no recessed and embossed patterns formed in it, the slider of the recording and reproducing apparatus can be floated at a constant floating height lower than conventionally over the whole area of the medium. During information recordation, the position of the slider is controlled on the basis of the magneto-optical signals from the magnetic marks. During information reproduction, the reproducing magnetic head controls the slider position on the basis of the magnetic leakage fields leaking from the magnetic marks.

    摘要: A magnetic recording medium (300) includes a substrate (1) and on the substrate (1) a first underlying layer (32), a second underlying layer (33), a magnetic layer (34), and a protective layer (35). Because of the existence of the first underlying layer (32) of Hf, initial growth layer having no specific crystal structure is prevented from growing in the second underlying layer (33). The second underlying layer (33) has a structure in which CoO particles having a cross section of a regular hexagon and separated by SiO2 portion are arranged in honeycomb. Since magnetic particles are epitaxially grown from CoO particles, the size of the magnetic particles and particle size distribution can be controlled, and the magnetic interaction between magnetic particles can be lessened. The underlying layer (33) and the protective layer (35) are formed by ECR sputtering. Such a magnetic recording medium is free from noise and thermal fluctuation, and ultrahigh recording density over 40 Gbit/inch2 is realized.

    摘要: A magnetic recording apparatus includes a laser light source (132), a recording magnetic head (131) and a magnetoresistive element. The recording magnetic head includes a pair of magnetic poles (100 and 101), between which the magnetoresistive element is interposed. A rotary actuator (Sa) positions the recording magnetic head at a desired track of a magnetic recording medium. A laser beam can be radiated onto the magnetic recording medium to raise the temperature of a region (302) of the medium. This region has a width of the order of the track width. The raised temperature lowers the coercive force of this region, where a recording magnetic field can be applied for high density recording. The rotary actuator may form a yaw angle (&thgr;) with a track of the magnetic recording medium. Even in this case, the recording magnetic head (131) and the reproducing element have no tracking offset from the code track. In addition, if the size of the magnetic poles (100 and 101) of the recording magnetic head are set within a predetermined range, the region (302) heated by the laser beam does not deviate from a recording magnetic field application region (303).
