Problems solved by technology

However, reducing the size of the magnetic beam means reducing its volume, which will cause problems with thermal fluctuations
That is, degradation of the input signal occurs and data disappears

Embodiment 1

[0067] In this example, for the figure 2 In the single-layer vertical medium of the structure, the example of changing the addition amount of Cr and B will be described.

[0068] A chemically strengthened glass substrate (for example, N-5 glass substrate manufactured by HOYA Co., Ltd.) with a smooth surface is used as the non-magnetic substrate 11. After cleaning, it is introduced into a sputtering device, and a Ta target is used under an Ar gas pressure of 5 mTorr. The first seed layer 131 made of amorphous Ta is formed with a film thickness of 10 nm, and then Ni, which is a non-magnetic Ni-based alloy, is used. 65 Fe 20 Cr 15 The target (the subscript number indicates the composition ratio in atomic %. The same applies hereinafter.), and the second seed layer 132 made of non-magnetic NiFeCr was formed with a film thickness of 15 nm under an Ar gas pressure of 20 mTorr. Furthermore, using an Ir target, under an Ar gas pressure of 30 mTorr, the base layer 14 was formed wit...

Embodiment 2

[0071] In this example, for the figure 1 In the two-layer vertical medium of the structure, an example of changing the addition amount of Cr and B will be described.

[0072] As the soft magnetic backing layer 2, Co 91 Ta 4 Zr 5 For the target, under an Ar gas pressure of 5 mTorr, an amorphous CoTaZr soft magnetic backing layer was formed with a film thickness of 150 nm as a single-layer seed layer 3 composed of nonmagnetic NiFeCr (similar to the second seed layer in Example 1) , except that the first seed layer made of Ta was not formed, all were the same as in Example 1, and a two-layer vertical medium was produced.

Embodiment 3

[0074] In this example, for the figure 2 An example of fabrication of a single-layer vertical medium with a structure changed by changing the amount of SiN added will be described.

[0075] When forming a CoPtCrB-SiN magnetic recording layer as a magnetic recording layer, use (100-z) mole % (Co 75 Pt 15 Cr 7 B 3 )-z mol% (SiN) target, in the range of z = 2 to 14, the addition amount of SiN was changed, and each was fabricated. In the same manner as in Example 1, a single-layer vertical medium was fabricated.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a perpendicular magnetic recording medium mounted in various magnetic recording devices, its manufacturing method, and a magnetic recording device using the perpendicular magnetic recording medium. Background technique [0002] As a technique for achieving higher density of magnetic recording, a perpendicular magnetic recording method in which recording magnetization is perpendicular to the in-plane direction of a medium is attracting attention instead of the conventional longitudinal magnetic recording method. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium is mainly composed of the following layers, namely: a magnetic recording layer of hard magnetic material; a base layer for orienting the magnetic recording layer to the target direction; a protective layer for protecting the surface of the magnetic recording layer; A backing layer of soft magnetic material for the magnetic flux generated by the magnetic head used for re...
