    摘要: In a granular magnetic recording layer of a perpendicular magnetic recording medium, media noises are reduced by separating adequately magnetic crystal grains and non-magnetic grain boundary and decreasing magnetic exchange interactions among the magnetic crystal grains without causing damage to magnetic anisotropy of the magnetic crystal grains. In one embodiment, the perpendicular magnetic recording medium, in which crystal alloy grains containing Co, Pt, and Cr, and non-magnetic grain boundary containing Si and O is included; the ratio of the number of O atom to that of Si atom in the magnetic recording layer is between about 2.5 and 5; the Si atomic composition in the magnetic recording layer is between about 3 and 6 atomic %; and the O atomic composition in the magnetic recording layer is between about 12 and 20 atomic %, is used. The in-plane distribution of perpendicular coercivity at any points of the medium of the magnetic recording layer is made at most about ±10% of an average value.

    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.
