Method of fabricating an alumina nanohole array, and method of manufacturing a magnetic recording medium

An alumina nanohole array and a method of fabricating the same includes the steps of forming an aluminum thin-film on a substrate at a substrate temperature of −80° C. or below so that crystal grain growth is suppressed, even when a high-purity aluminum material is used, thus providing improved surface smoothness; and anodizing the aluminum thin-film. Preferably, the method additionally includes texturing by pressing a mold having an orderly array of projections against the aluminum thin-film to form pits on the aluminum thin-film which enables a larger array area to be formed. When the mold and the aluminum thin-film are held at a temperature of 150 to 200° C., the pressure used for pit formation is reduced. A magnetic recording medium manufactured by a method therefore includes forming a magnetic layer within the nanoholes so that the medium is suitable as a bit patterned media for a perpendicular recording system.
