するようになっている。The 2° disk-shaped magnetic recording carrier is made of a ferromagnetic material such as γ-Ft.
The magnetic layer of the recording medium has been formed by applying TOS to the surface of the substrate using a material binder, but since it is not possible to increase the recording density, recently ferromagnetic metals or alloys have been used. There is a tendency to use a magnetic layer formed by N coating or vapor deposition. However, this magnetic layer made of ferromagnetic material generally has poor moisture resistance and may rust, so a retention film is formed on the magnetic layer to protect it.

保護層+41の表面に接触する。The conventional magnetic recording carrier is constructed as described above, and is mounted on a disk drive device (not shown) and rotated while transmitting electric signals through the head held on the surface of the magnetic layer 13) to determine the magnetization state of the magnetic layer 13). It is designed to convert to a change in , or perform the entire inverse conversion. When the rotation of the magnetic recording medium is completely stopped, the head is in the storage layer)4
), but when the magnetic recording medium starts to rotate fully, the head slides on the surface of the protective layer (4), and when it reaches a predetermined rotational speed, the head floats due to the air flow generated on the surface due to the viscosity of the air. and is held close to the surface. When the rotational speed is gradually lowered from the state in which the twisted magnetic recording carrier is rotating at a predetermined rotational speed, the flying head comes into contact with the surface of the protective layer +41.
