2. Description of the Related Art A conventional example of a servo write method for writing a servo signal will be described with reference to FIGS. First, as shown in FIG. 7, a magnet 3A for giving magnetization in the longitudinal direction is placed on the upper surface of the medium magnetic layer, and the medium 1 is magnetized in one direction (initial magnetization). Then, as shown in FIG. 8, the master disk 4 is brought into close contact with the magnetic layer of the medium 1, and a magnet 3B for applying a magnetic field in a direction opposite to the initial magnetization is placed from above, and the medium 1 and the master disk 4 or the magnet 3B are placed.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 9, since the magnetic flux concentrates on the soft magnetic layer pattern 5 generated on the master disk 4, the area immediately below the soft magnetic layer pattern 5 is not affected by the transfer magnetic field. , The initial magnetization is preserved as it is.
On the other hand, the magnetic layer immediately below the portion without the soft magnetic layer pattern 5 is magnetized in the direction opposite to the initial magnetization due to the influence of the magnetic flux leaking from the edge of the soft magnetic layer. As a result, a magnetic pattern corresponding to the soft magnetic layer pattern 5 on the master disk 4 is magnetically transferred to the medium 1. A servo signal (also called a servo burst signal or simply a burst) is reproduced from the written magnetic pattern by a reproduction signal head.

[0004] In the above transfer process, vacuum suction is used as a means for adhering the medium 1 and the master disk 4. If transfer is performed while this adsorption is insufficient,
The magnetic pattern is not sufficiently transferred, and the amplitude of the servo burst signal decreases as shown in FIG. The causes of the poor adhesion are as follows: 1) A case where submicron (micro) particles or micron-sized particles adhere to the master disk or the recording medium and hinder the adhesion between the master disk and the recording medium. 2) A case in which a magnet approaches before vacuum suction between the master disk and the recording medium is completed. And the like, and the degree of poor adhesion varies depending on the factors. For example, in the case of submicron sized particles, the degree of poor adhesion is smaller than that of micron sized particles.
