Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the stability of a magneto-optical disk with lapse of time to a greater extent and to obtain a precticably rewritable magneto-optical disk medium by using a protective film consisting of a specific protective film member to at least either of a lower layer protective film and upper layer protective film. CONSTITUTION:The lower layer protective film, thin magneto-optical film and upper layer protective film are laminated in this order on a disk-shaped substrate. The protective film consisting of the protective film member expressed by the formula is used for at least either of the lower layer protective film or the upper layer protective film. More specifically, not only chemical stability, (reactivity with the thin magneto-optical film, acid resistance, alkali resistance) and mechanical strength but also the film compactness to provide shielding against the external air and to prevent the infiltration of the moisture contained in the substrate are important as the protective film for the thin magneto-optical film. An Al2O3-SiO2 material is selected in the light of the above-mentioned points and is the thin mullite film having the compsn. consisting of 3Al2O3.2 siO2-2Al2O3.SiO2.

An amorphous magneto-optical thin film made of a rare earth metal such as -Fla and a transition metal is the most promising material for a rewritable optical disk memory. However, the above constituent elements are inherently susceptible to oxidation, and may cause problems such as formation of a surface oxidation layer, generation of pinholes, deterioration of magneto-optical properties (e.g. Kerr rotation angle), and increase in error rate. Its lifespan was about one week to one month at room temperature and humidity, and it could not be called a practical recording medium. So kt.

00), 5 is a convergent semiconductor laser beam for recording and reproduction. Each layer is formed by high-frequency sputtering and is continuously laminated without breaking the vacuum. A target having a composition of 2kL203-ISiO□ was used to create the mullite thin film. A 1N saline solution was dropped on the surface of the muft film of the prepared disk medium, and the corrosion resistance of the magneto-optical film was examined. As a result, pinholes were formed after 3 hours. Compared to the sample without the mullite thin film 2, the time for pinholes to occur was several hundred times longer in this 94m example. This demonstrated that the mullite thin film has high density and is effective as a protective film.

Each layer was laminated continuously without breaking the vacuum. When 1N saline was applied to the surface of the prepared disk medium and microscopically observed, no pinhole μ was observed even after 1 hour had elapsed. In order to confirm the effectiveness of the present invention, we tested Tb-Fe-Co without upper and lower protective films.
When a similar corrosion resistance test was conducted on a disk medium, many pinholes were generated in one minute. Furthermore, when a ZnS film (film thickness: 1oooX) was used as the upper and lower protective films in place of the mullite film, binho μ began to occur in about 10 minutes. From the above comparisons, it was demonstrated that the present invention has the characteristic of being able to shield from outside air.
