Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain excellent mechanical durability of a medium against contact- start-stop operation by vapor-depositing lots of land-like silicon dioxide layers on a substrate by cluster ion beam method, and then successively depositing a magnetic layer for the recording medium and a protective layer thereon. CONSTITUTION:In the process of vapor deposition of silicon dioxide layers 2 with using a cluster ion beam unit, formation speed of cores and grow rate of land-like silicon dioxide layers 2 can be controlled by varying the incident energy of ions. Then a Cr base layer which controls magnetic property and a magnetic layer 4 of Co alloy are successively deposited on the layer 2, and further a protective layer 5 of silicon dioxide is formed thereon. By depositing lots of land-like silicon dioxide layers 2 on the substrate 1, peeling of the magnetic layer 4 or protective layer 5 from the silicon dioxide layer 2 can be prevented. Thereby, the obtd. medium has excellent mechanical durability against contact-start-stop operation.

Silicon dioxide layer (2) by cluster ion beam device
In the vapor deposition, the nucleation rate and the growth rate of the island-shaped silicon dioxide layer (2) can be controlled by changing the incident energy of ions. When the ion acceleration voltage is lowered and the evaporation is performed, an island-like silicon dioxide layer with large irregularities (2
) is obtained, but when the acceleration voltage of the ions is increased, the ions are lengthened in a layered manner and the unevenness becomes smaller, so that the ion addition i! ! The voltage is 2
kV or less is desirable. Silicon dioxide (Sing) is the main component of glass, so if island-shaped silicon dioxide N (2) is formed by vapor deposition on the substrate fil, it will have strong adhesion due to mutual diffusion and will not peel off. First, a substrate +11 made of soda glass with a diameter of 2.5 inches was attached to a cluster ion beam device that included a cluster ion beam source in which a crucible was loaded with silicon oxide (Sin) and an oxygen (02) gas ion beam source. Substrate +11 was irradiated with only oxygen (0 gas ions) to remove deposits on the surface.
Heating to 00°C, a cluster ion beam of silicon oxide (Sin) and oxygen (08
) Simultaneous irradiation with gas ion beams to achieve an average thickness of approximately! A silicon dioxide layer (2) in the form of 50 islands was formed. Thereafter, this was transferred to a sputtering device, and a chromium underlayer (3) for controlling magnetic properties and a magnetic N (4) made of a cobalt alloy were successively deposited. Each film thickness is 1000 and 40
This was transferred to the cluster ion beam device again, and a film of silicon dioxide (Sing) with a thickness of 400 ions was maintained at an ion acceleration voltage of 3 kV. l! N(5) was formed. The thus produced magnetic recording carrier was coated with a fluorocarbon lubricant, installed in a fixed magnetic disk drive, and subjected to 30,000 contact start/stop tests, but no scratches were observed on the surface of the magnetic recording carrier. We were able to obtain good results.

In the above embodiment, the silicon dioxide layer (2) was formed by vapor deposition using a cluster ion beam device having two ion beam sources, but the silicon dioxide layer (2) could also be deposited in the same way using a reactive cluster ion beam device using an oxygen (01) gas atmosphere. It can be formed by vapor deposition. Further, the magnetic layer (4) can be applied to any metal thin film type recording medium such as Co-Ni alloy, Co-Ni-Cr alloy, Co-PL gold alloy, etc., and the protective layer (5) is made of silicon dioxide ( Sing).
