Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a relatively low coercive force improved in coercive force squareness by incorporating selenium of specific weight % of cobalt into a magnetic film. CONSTITUTION:The Se of 0.01 to 5wt.% of the cobalt is incorporated into the magnetic film consisting of the cobalt system by an electroless plating method on a nonmagnetic substrate. The sufficient effect of improving the coercive force squareness is not obtainable when the content of the Se is below 0.01wt.% and over 5wt.%. The content of the Se is preferably 0.1 to 3wt.%, more particularly preferably 0.1 to 1wt.% of the Co. The coercive force square ness (S*) is improved in such a manner and the effect of lowering the coercive force (Hc) is obtd. Then, the desired coercive force is easily obtd.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, when producing a magnetic film using an electroless plating bath using a conventional electroless plating method, even if the electroless plating bath is prepared with the same bath composition, the chemicals used are different. Plating bath composition errors due to slight purity differences that are practically unmanageable;
Alternatively, changes in the composition of the plating bath as the number of plating days passes, that is, changes in the composition of the plating bath due to the degree of depletion of the plating bath or the number of times the temperature of the plating bath is raised and lowered, strongly affect the electromagnetic conversion characteristics of the resulting magnetic film. A phenomenon in which the coercive force changes significantly is observed. For this reason, in the past, there was a drawback that only a limited number of magnetic films having a coercive force within an acceptable range could be obtained from a specific electroless plating bath.
