Problems solved by technology

In order to realize high-density recording, there is a problem that the thickness of the magnetic film of the magnetic recording layer is thinned, the diameter of each magnetic crystal grain is refined, and it is necessary to maintain a high coercive force in this state.
In this case, there is a problem that noise cannot be sufficiently reduced even if the cladding layer in the CoCr-based two-layer perpendicular magnetic recording medium is used as it is.

Abstract

A magnetic recording medium comprises a magnetic recording layer 63 which is formed by using an ordered alloy containing B on a substrate 1 containing an amorphous component. A part of B in the ordered alloy is segregated in a grain boundary, and thus the magnetic interaction, which acts between magnetic grains, can be reduced. Accordingly, it is possible to form fine and minute magnetic domains in the magnetic recording layer 63, and it is possible to reduce the medium noise as well. The temperature, at which the substrate is heated during the film formation of the magnetic recording layer 63, can be suppressed to be low, because the ordering temperature for the ordered alloy containing B is lower than those of ordered alloys not containing B. Therefore, it is possible to use a substrate made of glass which is suitable for the mass production. The magnetic recording layer 63 is also excellent in thermal stability because of the use of the ordered alloy having high magnetic anisotropy. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide the magnetic recording medium for high density recording which is excellent in thermal stability and which involves low medium noise.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a magnetic recording medium suitable for high-density recording, its manufacturing method, and a magnetic recording device, in particular to a magnetic recording medium of an alloy with an ordered lattice structure for a magnetic recording layer, its manufacturing method, and a magnetic recording The invention of the device. Background technique [0002] In the field of magnetic recording, there are two types of recording methods, a planar recording method and a perpendicular recording method. The former recording method is generally adopted now. The planar recording method is a method in which the magnetic recording head is parallel to the plane of the magnetic recording medium, and the N pole and N pole, S pole and S pole of the magnetic poles are magnetized in opposite directions to form recording bits and perform magnetic recording. In order to increase the recording density in the planar magnetic recording method...
