This is a coating-type magnetic recording medium. In comparison, Co, C
Metal thin film magnetic recording media, in which a ferromagnetic metal such as o-Ni is formed as a magnetic recording layer on a non-magnetic support by vacuum evaporation, sputtering, etc., are expected to have high output in the future because they can produce large output at short wavelengths. It is attracting attention as a medium for density magnetic recording [for example, IEETRA

It is difficult to obtain a recording layer. An oblique evaporation method is known as a method that can obtain a large amount of Ha in such metal thin film magnetic recording media [
