    摘要: A magnetic recording medium which includes a non-magnetic base layer having layered upon it, in sequence, a non-magnetic middle layer and a magnetic layer. The magnetic layer has ferromagnetic crystal grains surrounded by non-magnetic grain boundaries. The non-magnetic middle layer is formed of a non-magnetic oxide or nitride, and is disposed between the non-magnetic base layer and the magnetic layer. The non-magnetic oxide or nitride in the middle layer forms a fine, island-like film. At the time of film formation of the granular magnetic layer on the middle layer, this island-like film performs stationing for the ferromagnetic crystal grains and the growth nucleus for the non-magnetic grain boundary. As a result, fine dispersion of the ferromagnetic crystal grains in the granular magnetic layer is hastened, and a high coercivity is obtained even with a small Pt composition ratio. The available reduction in Pt composition ratio reduces the cost of the magnetic recording medium. Controlling the film formation conditions to which the non-magnetic middle layer is exposed controls the dispersion structure and the like of the magnetic crystal grains in the magnetic layer. This, in turn, controls the magnetic properties and the electromagnetic conversion properties of the magnetic recording medium.

    摘要: A magnetic recording medium has a non-magnetic under-layer, a magnetic layer, a protective film and a liquid lubricant layer sequentially laminated on a non-magnetic substrate. The magnetic layer has a multi-layer structure laminated with two or more magnetic layer components, each of the magnetic layer components having ferromagnetic grains and non-magnetic grain boundaries surrounding the grain. The resulting magnetic recording medium has a granular magnetic layer exhibiting very high Hc accompanying high density of magnetic recording, while decreasing the amount of platinum needed for attaining the high Hc, and reducing media noise accompanying the high recording density.

    摘要: A nonmagnetic foundation layer is made to have a body-centered cubic crystal structure with a preferred crystal orientation plane being the bcc (110) plane. A nonmagnetic intermediate layer, provided between the foundation layer and a granular magnetic layer, has a hexagonal close-packed structure with the hcp (100) plane or the hcp (200) plane being the preferred orientation plane. Furthermore, the crystal lattice misfit amount between the nonmagnetic intermediate layer 3 and the granular magnetic layer is made to be not more than 10% for each of an a-axis and a c-axis. As a result, epitaxial growth of ferromagnetic crystals in the granular magnetic layer, which has an hcp structure, is promoted, and hence the crystallinity of the magnetic layer is increased, and thus it becomes possible to simultaneously realize an increase in coercivity and a reduction in noise. Depositing the layers on an unheated substrate yields reduces manufacturing costs.
