Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve durability under low humidity by incorporating at least nitrogen atoms. and oxygen atoms. into a thin ferromagnetic film and increasing the atom. ratio of the oxygen to be incorporated with respect to iron gradually from a substrate toward the surface of the thin film. CONSTITUTION:Formation of the desired thin film magnetic layer is executed by maintaining a specified evaporation rate of a iron material 4, then changing the compsn. of a gas 7 to be introduced into an ion gun 6 with time during the film formation. For example, the film can be formed by a method consisting in increasing the amt. of the gaseous O2 to be incorporated gradually into the gas, in which the content of N2 is 100% in the initial period of the film formation. The amt. of the gaseous O2 introduced through a gas introducing port 8 is otherwise increased with time under the conditions under which the gaseous N2 is used for the gas 7 in the state of constantly operating the ion gun 6 while the evaporation rate of the iron material 4 is maintained constant. The magnetic recording medium having the improved durability of the thin magnetic film under the low humidity is thus obtd.

Is ferromagnetic powder used as a magnetic recording medium? A droplet type material obtained by coating a magnetic paint dispersed in an organic binder on a non-magnetic substrate and drying it has been widely used. However, since this coated magnetic recording medium mainly uses metal oxide powder as the ferromagnetic powder, its saturation magnetization is low, and since it contains an organic binder, the entire concentration of ferromagnetic material in the magnetic layer cannot be increased. Therefore, it is not suitable for high-density recording, and has drawbacks such as a complicated manufacturing process.

In recent years, the demand for high-density recording has increased, and in response to this, magnetic recording media formed on a thin metal film on a non-magnetic substrate have been developed. A thin metal film is formed on a non-magnetic substrate by a plating method such as electroplating or electroless plating, and the magnetic material is not limited to metal, but since metal is a typical example, these are included below. The magnetic recording medium is called a metal thin film magnetic recording medium. Furthermore, since this type of magnetic recording medium does not contain an organic binder, it is also called a non-binder type magnetic recording medium.

Is this gold a 5S @ metal τ binder with large saturation zero magnetization in thin film magnetic recording media? Since it can be formed as a thin film in a non-containing state, it has a higher coercive force and a thinner film than the coated type, has less effect of demagnetization in the short wavelength range, realizes high-density recording, and is easy to manufacture. It is attracting attention because it simplifies the process.

However, although the metal thin film of a metal thin film type magnetic recording medium appears to have a uniform and smooth metal surface, its microstructure is rough and has a structure in which fine metal particles are lined up! As a result, this type of magnetic recording medium is inferior in weather resistance and corrosion resistance compared to coated magnetic recording media.

In particular, the surface of magnetic recording media used as cassette tapes, video tapes, etc. is rubbed by a magnetic head during recording and playback, so even if there is a very small amount of corrosive material on the thin metal film, the friction will cause damage. The magnetic recording medium falls off and clogs the head, thereby damaging the head and the magnetic recording medium.
