A fluid application apparatus of the present invention includes a rotatable substrate holding mechanism (4), a photoresist liquid supply portion (5) and a motor mechanism (26). The photoresist liquid supply portion (5) supplies resist fluid to a region smaller than the entire region of the substrate surface while moving in the horizontal direction relative to the substrate holding mechanism (4). The motor mechanism (26) rotates the substrate holding mechanism (4) to diffuse the resist fluid over the entire surface of the substrate and form a resist layer having a predetermined thickness.

In a magnetic recording system including magnetic recording media, a rotation driving unit for driving these magnetic recording media, read/write magnetic heads, driving apparatus for driving these read/write magnetic heads, and a read/write signal processing apparatus, a reading portion of the respective magnetic heads is arranged by a magnetoresistive head. The magnetic recording media are constructed of multi-layered magnetic media having a plurality of magnetic layers fabricated directly, or via underlayers on a non-magnetic disk substrate, and of non-magnetic intermediate layers arranged among these non-magnetic layers. Furthermore, one coercivity which is measured by applying a magnetic field along a circumferential direction of the magnetic recording media, is selected to be larger than the other coercivity which is measured by applying a magnetic field along a radial direction of the magnetic recording media, so that a higher signal-to-noise ratio is achieved, as compared with that of the conventional magnetic recording system. Since the thickness of the non-magnetic intermediate layers is smaller than or equal to 5 nm, and also the total layer is smaller than or equal to 5 nm, and also the total layer number of the plural magnetic layers is selected to be odd, better characteristics can be achieved. Accordingly, since the MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure) is longer than or equal to 0.15 million hours with high recording density, and the disk substrate and the magnetic head sliders can be mounted at high packaging density, a compact and high-capacity magnetic recording system can be obtained.
