It is known that perpendicular magnetic recording media made of sputtered Co-Cr alloys are excellent as high-density magnetic recording media. However, when a Co-Cr alloy layer is used as a magnetic recording medium, it is susceptible to wear and damage due to the large frictional resistance against the magnetic head, lacks durability, and has poor lubricity, making it difficult to put into practical use. This is one of the biggest problems. Further, Co--Cr films also have problems in corrosion resistance, and no film has been obtained that can withstand long-term use or storage in environments such as high temperature and high humidity.
