    Abstract: A magnetic recording medium includes a substrate, an underlayer provided on the substrate and including MgO, and a magnetic layer provided on the underlayer and including an alloy having a L10 crystal structure. The magnetic layer includes first, second, and third magnetic recording layers successively provided in this order above the underlayer. A Curie temperature of the second magnetic recording layer is lower than a Curie temperature of each of the first and third magnetic recording layers, by a value which falls within a range of 30 K to 100 K. An average grain diameter of magnetic grains at a bottom surface portion of the first magnetic recording layer is smaller by 15% or more than average grain diameters of magnetic grains at bottom surface portions of the second and third magnetic recording layers.

    Abstract: A heat-assisted magnetic recording medium includes: a substrate; an underlayer; and a magnetic layer that is (001)-oriented. In the magnetic layer, a first magnetic layer and a second magnetic layer are stacked in this order from the underlayer side. The first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer include an alloy having an L10 structure. The second magnetic layer includes a ferrite at grain boundaries of magnetic grains. The ferrite is one or more kinds selected from the group consisting of NiFe2O4, MgFe2O4, MnFe2O4, CuFe2O4, ZnFe2O3, CoFe2O4, BaFe2O4, SrFe2O4, and Fe3O4. A Curie temperature of the magnetic grains is lower than a Curie temperature of the ferrite.
