torr程度である。2. Description of the Related Art In order to improve the still durability and running durability of metal thin film magnetic recording media, the use of sputtering or plasma CVD to provide a carbon-based protective film has become central. We are conducting research using a method in which material in a plasma state inside a discharge tube is sprayed onto the surface of a thin film medium. To ensure the nozzle internal pressure, the gap between the can and the can should be increased from 1.01 to 0.
.. At present, it is managed to be about 51 and controlled by gas flow rate. This method reduces the nozzle internal pressure to 0.05 to
0.5 torr can be secured from rr. At this time, the vacuum degree of the vacuum equipment is 1xlO'torr to 1xlO'
It is about torr.

いる。However, if you want to increase the nozzle internal pressure and increase the film deposition rate, the only way to do this is to narrow the gap between the can and the nozzle or increase the exhaust capacity. This is not common because it increases the cost, and gap control between the can and the nozzle is an elemental technology for increasing the nozzle internal pressure. However, 5
Gap control of 0.5 mm or less over a width of 0.00 cm or more is becoming quite difficult due to the problem of thermal expansion of the nozzle material.

が適当である。Means for Solving the Problem: The tip of the nozzle, approximately 5.0mm thick, is made of heat-resistant polymer lyme, and by touching this film to the can, the gap between the can and the nozzle is made virtually zero, and the direction of travel of the medium is A gap is created between the heat-resistant polymer films, and the nozzle internal pressure is adjusted according to the proportion of this space. The appropriate thickness of the heat-resistant film used is about 10 μm to 100 μm.

A shaped layer 4 having a density of 105 to 10" mountain-like protrusions per l2 with a center line average roughness of 30 to 50 is formed, and oxygen is deposited on this layer by oblique vacuum evaporation. 1,800 Co--Ni ferromagnetic metal thin films 3 are formed while introducing.

The cabinet is made of heat-resistant polymer film L9. Here, a heat-resistant film having a glass transition point of 130°C or higher can be used, such as polyimide film, aramid film, etc., but in this example, 2.
A polyimide film with a thickness of 0 μm was used. In addition,
The thickness of the film could be from 10 μm to 100 μm. When the thickness is less than 10 μm, the resistance to gas flow due to the film attached to the tip becomes weak, and there is almost no significant difference in the internal pressure inside the discharge tube compared to when no film is attached. Moreover, when the thickness exceeds 100 μm, the film loses its softness and becomes susceptible to scratches due to contact with the metal thin film.

ある。An example of forming the heat-resistant film 9 on the tip of the discharge tube nozzle 8 is shown in FIG. 3. FIGS. As shown in the figure, the entire width direction of the medium is covered with a heat-resistant film 9, while in the running direction of the medium, the heat-resistant film 9 is formed at an angle at the tip of the nozzle. This is to prevent the stress of the heat-resistant film 9 from being applied only to the same point on the medium, and also to enable control of the internal pressure of the discharge tube by adjusting the gap between the films.
