Abstract

A perpendicular magnetic recording medium is disclosed that is able to prevent the Wide Area Track Erasure phenomenon from occurring and is capable of high density recording. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium includes a substrate; a soft-magnetic backup stack structure including a first magnetic layer, a first non-magnetic coupling layer, and a second magnetic layer stacked on the substrate in order; an intermediate layer formed from a non-magnetic material on the soft-magnetic backup stacked structure; and a recording layer on the intermediate layer, the recording layer having an easy axis of magnetization perpendicular to the surface of the substrate. The first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer are formed from a poly-crystal soft-magnetic material, each of the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer has an easy axis of magnetization in the surface thereof, and the magnetization of the first magnetic layer and the magnetization of the second magnetic layer are coupled and anti-parallel to each other.

Background technique [0004] Magnetic storage devices are used in a wide variety of devices ranging from large-scale systems to personal-use computers and communication devices. In all applications of magnetic memory devices, further increases in recording density and data transfer speed are required. [0005] In recent years, in the in-plane recording technology currently used as the main magnetic recording method, a recording layer with high coercive force (i.e., high thermal stability of remanent magnetization) is employed to prevent loss of information recorded at high recording density . In order to furth...
