Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the CSS-resistant properties and head-stock-resistant properties without deteriorating an S/N ratio. CONSTITUTION:After a glass substrate is subjected to a heat-retaining/humidity-- retaining treatment, the substrate is subjected to an etching treatment with etchant. As protrusions are properly formed on the surface of this magnetic disc glass substrate, the friction force and the attaching force between a head and a magnetic disc are relieved and the excellent CSS-resistant properties and the excellent head-stick-resistant properties are provided. Further, as the depths of minute recesses formed on the substrate surface are small, no harmful influence is given upon an S/N ratio.

2. Description of the Related Art A magnetic disk is constructed by forming a magnetic film and a protective film on a substrate by a process such as sputtering, plating and vapor deposition. "Head") is the main component. The head and the magnetic disk in the magnetic storage device are in contact with each other and are stationary before the operation is started.
At the beginning of the operation, the head is levitated by giving the required rotation to the magnetic disk, and a gap is created between the head and the surface of the magnetic disk. Recording and reproduction are performed in this state, and at the end of the operation, the magnetic disk is rotated. Stops, and the head and the magnetic disk stand still in contact with each other as before the start of the operation. Such a method is called a contact start / stop method (hereinafter referred to as "CSS method").

The contact frictional force generated between the head and the magnetic disk at the start and end of the above-mentioned operation consumes the head and the magnetic disk and causes deterioration of the magnetic characteristics and thus the recording / reproducing characteristics. Further, when there is a large protrusion on the surface of the magnetic disk, the head collides with the large protrusion to make the flying unstable, damaging the head and the magnetic disk and degrading the recording / reproducing characteristics. When a magnetic disk having a smooth surface is used, or when moisture enters between the head and the magnetic disk by leaving it in a humid atmosphere, the head and the magnetic disk cause an adsorption phenomenon. When activated in such a state, a large resistance force commonly called a head stick is generated in the head and the magnetic disk, and the head and the magnetic disk are damaged.

Conventionally, an aluminum alloy substrate has been widely used as a magnetic disk substrate, but recently, a glass substrate has attracted attention and various studies have been made. Compared to aluminum alloy substrates, glass substrates have higher recording density due to the fact that they do not have huge protrusions and have excellent surface smoothness, and they are hard and resistant to plastic deformation, so they have excellent impact resistance and few surface defects. Because it is suitable for.

However, since the glass substrate is particularly excellent in surface smoothness, the contact area between the magnetic disk and the head is large, which causes an increase in frictional force between the magnetic disk and the head and an increase in attraction force. There is a drawback that the CSS resistance and head stick resistance are deteriorated. As a method for solving the above-mentioned drawbacks, a method has been proposed in which fine irregularities are formed on the surface of a glass substrate by a mechanical method to reduce the frictional force and the attractive force between the head and the magnetic disk.

However, in this case, generation of microcracks due to the low plastic flow of glass is unavoidable, and there is a risk of destruction of the magnetic disk due to a decrease in strength of the glass substrate and moisture or dew remaining in the microcracks. There is a drawback that the magnetic film corrodes due to water. Therefore, a method of forming unevenness on the surface of the glass substrate by a mechanical method, performing chemical etching treatment with an aqueous solution containing hydrofluoric acid and sulfuric acid or an aqueous solution containing fluoride, and enlarging and removing the microcracks has been proposed. (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-160010). However, this method requires two methods, a mechanical method and a chemical etching process.
The uneven shape formed on the glass substrate surface is poor in reproducibility and uneven due to the combination of the two, and pits and grooves are easily generated depending on the conditions of the chemical etching process. Has the drawback of being narrow.

A method of chemically etching the surface of a glass substrate with a potassium fluoride-hydrofluoric acid mixed aqueous solution has also been proposed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-225919).
However, in this method, since the concentration of hydrofluoric acid is too high, the erosion rate of the glass substrate is remarkably high, and as a result, the uneven shape formed on the surface of the glass substrate is poor in reproducibility and is not uniform. Since it is uniform, the CSS resistance is not sufficiently improved.

The glass substrate for a magnetic disk of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as “substrate”) has discontinuous minute island-shaped projections as shown in FIG. 1 on its surface, and its cross-sectional shape is the radial direction and the circumference of the substrate. It has a similar profile in direction and no anisotropy is observed. In the glass substrate of the present invention, the protrusion height is the distance from the flat portion of the substrate surface to the apex of the protrusion (H in FIG. 1), and the tip has a surface roughness meter (rank of 0.2 μm square). It is measured with a measuring length of 250 μm by “Talystep” manufactured by Taylor Hobson.

As for the shape of the protrusions, when observed from above, protrusions having a circular shape, an elliptical shape, a rectangular shape, or the like are mixed in some cases. In the case of a protrusion with a shape other than a circle, the maximum spread distance of the protrusion is the protrusion width, and if the individual protrusion widths are different,
The average value of 20 or more is taken as the projection width, but the projection width is usually in the range of 0.01 to 1 μm, and the projection density is 10
It is in the range of 10 to 1000 per 0 μm 2 . Also,

Conventionally, the CSS resistance and the head stick resistance are related to the unevenness of the substrate surface, that is, Rmax.
The SS properties and headstick resistance results can be quite opposite. This is because when the protrusions are formed on the surface of the substrate with an appropriate height and distribution, the contact area between the head and the magnetic disk is reduced and the CSS resistance and the head stick resistance are improved, while the recesses are formed. , The contact area is not effectively reduced or conversely increased, so that the above two characteristics are not improved or deteriorated. Further, if the protrusion heights of the protrusions on the substrate surface are uniform, the number of high protrusions due to the unevenness of the protrusion heights is reduced, and collision between the high protrusions and the head is avoided, so that the head and the magnetic disk are prevented. In addition to reducing the damage on the disk, the load on the head is distributed over a large number of protrusions to reduce the damage on the disk, and thus the CSS resistance and the head stick resistance are improved.

Measure the protrusions (2 points each) on an arbitrary straight line in each inner peripheral portion, central portion, and outer peripheral portion on one substrate, and take the average value of all the measured values as the protrusion height, and measure the measured values of the same substrate. The width was defined as the uniformity of the protrusion height, and the average width of each substrate was defined as the reproducibility of the protrusion height. (3) CSS characteristics When the value of either the static friction force or the dynamic friction force exceeds 20 gf in the measurement up to 100,000 times, it is regarded as a failure and judged by the pass rate of the measurement of 5 disks. (4) Pass / Fail of Head Stick The head and the magnetic disk were left in a static contact state for 1 hour in an atmosphere of a temperature of 25 ° C. and a humidity of 80%, and the threshold value of frictional force at the time of start was determined to be 20 gf. (5) S / N ratio The average value of the measured values of five disks measured by an evaluation device for magnetic disks was taken as the S / N ratio.
