A master carrier for magnetic transfer is equipped with a substrate having a land/groove pattern. The land/groove pattern is formed from a magnetic material and corresponds to information that is transferred to a magnetic recording disk. Each land in the land/groove pattern has four round corners whose radius is from 1% through 47% of the width of a data track on the disk.

An accurate magnetic transfer to a high-density slave medium having two magnetic layers and utilizing antiferromagnetic coupling is performed. By applying a first magnetic field that causes both the first and second magnetic layers of the magnetic layer of a slave medium to reach saturation magnetization unidirectionally along the circumferential direction of the track, the first and second magnetic layers are magnetized uniformly in the same direction as the first magnetic field. Then, a second magnetic field that inverts the magnetization of the first magnetic layer and has no effect on the magnetization of the second magnetic layer is applied in the opposite direction, whereby only the magnetization direction of the first magnetic layer is inverted in the direction of the second magnetic field. Thereby, a favorable initial magnetization state in which the magnetization directions of the first and second magnetic layers are oriented antiparallel can be obtained.

R.sub.1 is a hydrocarbon group having from 8 to 26 carbon atoms. R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are each a hydrocarbon group having from 8 to 26 carbon atoms, or a fluorinated hydrocarbon group in which some or all of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon group having from 8 to 26 carbon atoms have been replaced by fluorine atoms. R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 may be the same or different from each other. At least either one of R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 contains fluorine atoms.
