摘要:
A magnetic recording medium is provided. The magnetic recording medium comprises an in-plane magnetic film used for recording, and a perpendicular magnetic film formed on the in-plane magnetic film. The in-plane magnetic film has a magnetization easy axis in an in-plane direction. The perpendicular magnetic film has a magnetization easy axis oriented in a direction perpendicular to the magnetization easy axis of the in-plane magnetic film. A tBr (a product of a thickness and a residual magnetization) of the perpendicular magnetic film is set so as not to exceed one-fifth of a tBr of the in-plane magnetic film at the maximum.

A perpendicular magnetic recording medium includes a magnetic orientation controller layer serving as a layer for controlling crystalline orientation in an upper layer. A non-magnetic orientation controller layer extends on the surface of the magnetic orientation controller layer The non-magnetic orientation controller layer serves as a layer for controlling crystalline orientation in an upper layer. A magnetic recording layer extends on the surface of the non-magnetic orientation controller layer. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium allows a reliable establishment of a uniform crystalline orientation in the magnetic recording layer based on the influences from the magnetic and non-magnetic orientation controller layers. A reliable establishment of a uniform crystalline orientation can be achieved without an increase in the thickness of the non-magnetic orientation controller layer.

The present invention provides a perpendicular magnetic recording medium that reduces medium noise and achieves thermal stability of recording magnetization. This perpendicular magnetic recording medium has a substrate and a recording layer formed by single-layered magnetic nanoparticles that are aligned at uniform intervals. An auxiliary magnetic film that is thinner than the recording layer is interposed between the substrate and the recording layer. The magnetization of the magnetic nanoparticles is secured by the exchange interaction effect of the auxiliary magnetic film.

A magnetic recording layer is formed on an auxiliary magnetic layer in a perpendicular magnetic recording medium. The auxiliary magnetic layer has the axis of easy magnetization in the vertical direction perpendicular to the surface of a substrate. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium reliably allows establishment of the magnetization in the auxiliary magnetic layer in the vertical direction. When a magnetic flux flows along the vertical direction perpendicular to the surface of the magnetic recording layer, the magnetic flux flows across the magnetic recording layer in the vertical direction. The magnetization is thus reliably established in the magnetic recording layer in the vertical direction. The magnetic field of a stronger intensity is thus leaked out of the magnetic recording layer in the vertical direction.

A storage system has a storage medium, a head, and a control unit for carrying out refresh processing. A refresh operation extracts data that needs to be refreshed by measuring the read-out output level of target data. Then, data requiring refresh is re-recorded to the storage medium by the head. Because an actual data level is observed, it is possible to accurately detect refresh target data, and because there is no need for a reference area, it is possible to prevent a reduction in storage capacity.

A method of fabricating a magnetic recording medium is disclosed, including a monomolecular film formation step of forming a monomolecular film on a substrate and a magnetic film formation step of forming on the monomolecular film a magnetic film for recording magnetic information. In the monomolecular film formation step, it is preferable to form a perylene-based organic monomolecular film.

A magnetic recording medium with a high recording density has a first ferromagnetic layer, a non-magnetic layer, and a second ferromagnetic layer successively deposited as the recording layer on a non-magnetic substrate. The recording layer is heated in concentric circular shapes to divide it into regions in which the magnetic interactions between the ferromagnetic layers exhibit ferromagnetism and regions that exhibit anti-ferromagnetism. The ferromagnetic regions are used for recording tracks, and the anti-ferromagnetic regions function as guard bands. In this manner track density is increased without roughening the surface of the recording medium.

A soft magnetic thin film in which the recording magnetic field in the perpendicular direction can be preferentially intensified and sharply controlled when the thin film is applied to a perpendicular magnetic recording medium is provided. This soft magnetic thin film can be obtained by immersing a substrate into an electroless plating bath that contains a Co ion, Fe ion, and Ni ion as metal ions, as well as a completing agent and a boron-type reducing agent, wherein the content ratios of the metal ions on the mole basis are 0.15≦ (Ni ion amount/the amount of total metal ions) ≦0.40, 0.50≦ (Co ion amount/the amount of total metal ions) ≦0.80, and 0.05≦ (Fe ion amount/the amount of total metal ions) ≦0.15; and carrying out electroless plating in a magnetic field in a range of 5-2,000 Oe given in a direction parallel to the surface of said substrate.
