As shown in the figure, the vacuum chamber 1 consists of a first vacuum chamber 2 for forming a base layer and a second vacuum chamber 3 for forming a magnetic layer, each of which is operated by an independent evacuation system 4, 6.
10. .. It is exhausted to torr. In this vacuum chamber 1, an unwinding roll 6° guide roll 8. Vapor deposition roll 10.
A substrate transport system consisting of rolls 7 is installed. The non-magnetic substrate 9 is mainly made of plastic, and is first wound on an unwinding roll ((( While the non-magnetic substrate 9 is being transported, the base metal 11 is vapor-deposited on the non-magnetic substrate 9 by the heating source 12 in the first vacuum chamber 2. At this time, from the gas introduction system 15, Oxygen gas is introduced and a film is formed in an oxygen atmosphere.

At this time, the main magnetic properties are determined by the incident angle of the vapor defined by the oblique vapor deposition mask 1 and the amount of oxygen introduced from the oxygen introduction system 16.

The nonmagnetic substrate 9 is made of a plastic film with a thickness of 10 to 20 μm, and films of polyester, polyimide, polyamide, polycarbonate, etc. are generally used, but the present invention is not affected by the material of the substrate. The magnetic layer 19 is generally made of an alloy mainly composed of Co,

The film is formed at a temperature of 1,000 to 2,000 degrees Celsius.

た。(1) Underlayer formation method: Physical vapor deposition methods such as sputtering, ion blating, and vacuum evaporation were examined as methods for forming the underlayer. In all methods, the effect of introducing oxygen gas during film formation was confirmed. We focused on the vacuum evaporation method in terms of film formation speed and simplicity.

The dependence on the atmosphere or the amount introduced was investigated. As a result, it was confirmed that only the 02 gas was effective in terms of the atmosphere, and the amount introduced needed to be adjusted experimentally to obtain the maximum effect, taking into account the thickness of the two base materials.

As a result, there was clearly a difference between the two, with the negative standard electrode potential being more effective (details will be described later). Further, in the case of a magnetic material such as CO or N1, it is desirable to increase the amount of oxygen introduced and make it non-magnetic, considering the influence on magnetic properties.

る。[ Figure 3 shows the magnetic properties of these samples. Measurements were performed using a sample vibrating magnetometer. The horizontal axis shows the amount of oxygen introduced during the formation of the magnetic layer. The vertical axis shows the coercive force.From this figure, it can be seen that by providing an underlayer containing oxygen, the coercive force can be significantly improved. In order to achieve this, the incident angle at the time of forming the magnetic layer can be lowered, and therefore mass production can be improved by making effective use of steam.

のの方が優れていることがわかる。Figure 4 shows the corrosion resistance of each sample (in this case, the magnetic layer had an oxygen introduction rate of 0.2 l/min), and shows the corrosion resistance against the number of days left at 60°C and 90% humidity. It shows the change in saturation magnetic flux density. From this figure, a decrease in corrosion resistance appears as a decrease in saturation magnetic flux density.
It can be seen that those with an oxygen-containing underlayer are also superior in terms of corrosion resistance.

ものとも考えられる。These phenomena are also thought to be caused by oxygen taken in during the formation of the underlayer diffusing into the grain boundaries of the magnetic layer.
