To provide a magnetic disk excellent in floating and sliding characteristics in a low floating area. A magnetic disk having a feature that variations in the height of the projections on each surface of protective films in floating ensured areas on both sides of the magnetic disk are .+-.15%, and a magnetic disk device on which the magnetic disk is mounted. A surface processing apparatus for a magnetic disk, including: a first electrode for fixing the magnetic disk, the first electrode having an inside diameter larger than the inside diameter of the non-magnetic substrate; an electrically grounded shield for shielding the first electrode; a second electrode, disposed in parallel to the surface of the magnetic disk, for generating plasma against the surface of the magnetic disk; and a plasma control member, disposed at a position separated from the outer edge of the magnetic disk by a specified distance, for controlling plasma generated against the surface of the magnetic disk; wherein a power is applied between the first and second electrodes for plasma-etching the surface of the magnetic disk.

The magnetoresistance effect element is of a multilayered structure having at least magnetic layers and an intermediate layer of an insulating material, a semiconductor or an antiferromagnetic material against the magnetic layers, and the magnetoresistance effect element has terminals formed at least on the opposite magnetic layers, respectively, so that a current flows in the intermediate layer. The film surfaces of all the magnetic layers constituting the magnetoresistance effect element are opposed substantially at right angles to the recording surface of a magnetic recording medium. Therefore, the area of the magnetic layers facing the recording surface of the magnetic recording medium can be extremely reduced, and thus the magnetic field from a very narrow region of the high-density recorded magnetic recording medium can be detected by the current which has a tunneling characteristic and passes through the intermediate layer.

The magnetoresistance effect element is of a multilayered structure having at least magnetic layers and an intermediate layer of an insulating material, a semicondutor or an antiferromagnetic material against the magnetic layers, and the magneto-resistance effect element has terminals formed at least on the opposite magnetic layers, respectively, so that a current flows in the intermediate layer. The film surfaces of all the magnetic layers constituting the magnetoresistance effect element are opposed substantially at right angles to the recording surface of a magnetic recording medium. Therefore, the area of the magnetic layers facing the recording surface of the magnetic recording medium can be extremely reduced, and thus the magnetic field from a very narrow region of the high-density recorded magnetic recording medium can be detected by the current which has a tunneling characteristic and passes through the intermediate layer.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium and magnetic recording apparatus which can provide a high output level and a low noise level are disclosed. A magnetic recording medium includes a multilayer structure of magnetic alloy thin films containing Co, and at least one paramagnetic intermediate region or oxygen-rich region disposed between the magnetic layers. The intermediate region reduces the magnetic interaction between the magnetic layers without the degradation of crystallinity of the magnetic layers. As a result, a magnetic recording medium having such a structure shows low noise performance and a high recording density.

The present invention relates to a magnetic recording medium for a magnetic disk unit or the like and, more particularly, to a magnetic recording medium having its recording layer made of a magnetic alloy film with uniform magnetic characteristics. The present magnetic recording medium comprises a non-magnetic substrate, at least two sputtered layers of chromium thin film having a bow-like columnar structure which chromium thin film is laminated on the substrate, another sputtered layer of a magnetic alloy thin film laminated on the chromium thin film, and a protective layer laminated on the magnetic alloy thin film. The present invention is effective in reducing modulation of regenerative output relatively independent of a texture roughness of the substrate.
