【発明の詳細な説明】
本発明は、金属薄膜型磁気記録媒体の製造方法に関する
。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a metal thin film magnetic recording medium.
そして本発明は、Go、Go金合金斜方蒸着や。The present invention also provides Go, Go gold alloy oblique vapor deposition.
Go−W等のスパッタリングによる面内磁化膜。In-plane magnetized film by sputtering such as Go-W.
Go−Orに代表されるスパッタリング、蒸着、イオン
ブレーティング等による垂直磁化膜のいずれの強磁性層
の形成にも有用で、磁気テープ、磁気ディスクのいずれ
の形態の媒体であっても、広幅の高分子成形物基板上に
、強磁性層を形成する工程において、幅方向の特性の均
一化を図りかつ量産性を高めようとするものである。It is useful for forming any ferromagnetic layer of perpendicular magnetization film by sputtering such as Go-Or, vapor deposition, ion blating, etc., and it is useful for forming any ferromagnetic layer of perpendicular magnetization film by sputtering such as Go-Or, and it can be used for wide-width media, whether it is magnetic tape or magnetic disk. In the process of forming a ferromagnetic layer on a polymer molded substrate, the aim is to make the characteristics uniform in the width direction and to improve mass productivity.
近年の磁気記録の高密度化は目覚しく、最短記録波長は
1μmをきるところまできた。The density of magnetic recording has increased dramatically in recent years, and the shortest recording wavelength has reached the point where it is less than 1 μm.
さらに0.5μrrLm下を目ざp改良が重ねられてい
るが、これを実現する上で不可欠の媒体として、金属薄
膜型の媒体の開発が活発になってきている。Further efforts are being made to improve the target diameter below 0.5 μrrLm, and development of metal thin film media is becoming more active as a medium essential to achieving this goal.
かかる媒体の製造の基礎となる薄膜形成技術は、人混な
用途を有し各方面で磨かれているものの、連続して大量
の原反を得るとなると、未解決の問題も数多く残されて
いる。Although the thin film forming technology that forms the basis of the production of such media has many applications and has been refined in various fields, there remain many unresolved problems when it comes to continuously obtaining large quantities of raw material. There is.
薄膜を高分子成形物基板上に連続して形成する技術は巻
取蒸着技術として、金属化フィルムコンデンサ、装飾、
包装分野で実用になっているものの、これらは、蒸着材
料がAlであり、磁気記録媒体用の材料であるGo系の
合金に比較すると、高分子成形物への輻射熱影響が小さ
いのと、媒体が0.1μm程度の厚みが必要なのに対し
、A7!では高々0.03μm程度で凝縮熱影響も小さ
いことから、基板への熱影響は殆んど問題にされていな
かった。The technology of continuously forming thin films on polymer molded substrates is known as roll-deposition technology, and is used for metallized film capacitors, decorations,
Although they have been put into practical use in the packaging field, they use Al as the vapor deposition material, and compared to Go-based alloys, which are materials for magnetic recording media, the effect of radiant heat on polymer molded products is small, and the media requires a thickness of about 0.1 μm, whereas A7! Since the condensation heat effect is small, with a thickness of about 0.03 μm at most, the heat effect on the substrate has hardly been considered a problem.
巻取り蒸着機で、蒸発源を、電子ビーム加熱式に置換え
るか、スパッタ源に置き換えれば、磁性薄膜の形成を行
うことができる。If the evaporation source in a winding evaporation machine is replaced with an electron beam heating type or a sputtering source, a magnetic thin film can be formed.
面内磁化膜にしても、垂直磁化膜にしても先ず基本は、
幅方向、長手方向に磁気特性を均一にすることである。Regardless of whether it is an in-plane magnetized film or a perpendicularly magnetized film, the basics are as follows.
The goal is to make the magnetic properties uniform in the width and length directions.
この課題は、蒸着効果を無視して取組むならば解決は容
易であるといえる。This problem can be easily solved if the vapor deposition effect is ignored.
すなわち、基板の幅の倍近い幅の蒸発源を用意すればよ
いからである。That is, it is sufficient to prepare an evaporation source with a width nearly twice the width of the substrate.
しかし大量生産技術として、この課題に取組むのは、必
ずしも容易ではない。However, it is not necessarily easy to address this issue as a mass production technology.
蒸発源として電子ビーム蒸発源を用いた場合。When an electron beam evaporation source is used as the evaporation source.
(1)幅方向に長軸を有する広幅の容器に蒸発材料を挿
入し、偏向磁界走査で、基板の幅方向の位置により、電
子ビームの滞留時間を変化させて、膜厚を一定にし、磁
気特性を均一にする、(ii)小容量の蒸発源容器を幅
方向に複数個並べ、それぞれの蒸発速度を個別に制御し
て、やはり特性を均一にすることか考えられるが、基板
と蒸発源の相対位置により、(1)も(11)も再調整
が必要である。(1) Insert the evaporation material into a wide container with a long axis in the width direction, and use deflection magnetic field scanning to change the residence time of the electron beam depending on the position in the width direction of the substrate to keep the film thickness constant. (ii) It may be possible to arrange multiple small-capacity evaporation source containers in the width direction and individually control the evaporation rate of each to make the characteristics uniform, but the substrate and evaporation source Both (1) and (11) need to be readjusted depending on their relative positions.
スパッタ源を用いた場合は、膜厚は比較的均一であるが
、逆にそれ以上の均一化を企てた時は、工夫の余地がな
い。When a sputtering source is used, the film thickness is relatively uniform, but if an attempt is made to make it more uniform than that, there is no room for improvement.
またスパッタ源は膜形成速度が、ターゲットが磁性体で
あるため小さくなり、強引にパワーを投入すると、基板
への熱影響が大きくなり、かつ不均一になる傾向があっ
た。In addition, the film formation rate of the sputtering source is slow because the target is a magnetic material, and when power is forcibly applied, the thermal effect on the substrate tends to be large and the film formation becomes non-uniform.
両者のいずれも、量産を前提とした条件、すなわち広幅
の基板(最低でも60c1n)で長尺ものを短時間で処
理する能力をもった上で、特性の良いこと、特性が均一
であることのいずれを欠いても問題であり、現状では満
足のいく製法は見出されていない。Both of them meet the requirements for mass production, that is, the ability to process long items on wide substrates (at least 60c1n) in a short time, as well as good and uniform characteristics. Lack of either is a problem, and no satisfactory manufacturing method has been found at present.
垂直磁化膜にしても電子ビーム蒸着(又はイオンブレー
ティング)で充分な実用特性が得られる見通しがあるし
、特定の用途であれば、投入パワーを大きくとったマグ
ネトロンスパッタでも充分実用速度になるのであるから
、特性を均一にした時の熱影響を均一にできれば、いず
れも厳しい規格を満足する磁気記録媒体を大量に生産す
る技術として評価することができるわけである。Even with perpendicularly magnetized films, there is a prospect that sufficient practical characteristics can be obtained by electron beam evaporation (or ion blating), and for specific applications, magnetron sputtering with a large input power can provide sufficient practical speed. Therefore, if the thermal effects can be made uniform when the characteristics are made uniform, it can be evaluated as a technology for mass-producing magnetic recording media that meet strict standards.
本発明は以上のような点に鑑みなされたもので、幅方向
の磁気特性の均一化を図った時に生ずる基板の受ける熱
影響の不均一を補償し、幅方向に磁気特性以外の主要な
物性を均一にするために、電子を基板に注入するもので
、その注入過程が、蒸着時と同じ回転支持体に沿った状
態で行われることで目的を達成するものである。The present invention was developed in view of the above points, and it compensates for the unevenness of the thermal effect on the substrate that occurs when trying to make the magnetic properties uniform in the width direction, and improves the main physical properties other than the magnetic properties in the width direction. In order to make the deposition uniform, electrons are injected into the substrate, and this purpose is achieved by performing the injection process along the same rotating support as during vapor deposition.
電子は例えば、グロー放電処理による程度のエネルギー
では不充分であり、高分子成形物を基板とする場合その
厚みをt〔μm〕とすると、電子のエネルギーは1.s
t (KV)からts t [KV:]、さらに好し
くは2tから3tの範囲を選べば良い。For example, the energy generated by glow discharge treatment is insufficient for electrons, and when a polymer molded substrate is used and its thickness is t [μm], the energy of electrons is 1. s
The range may be selected from t (KV) to ts t [KV:], more preferably from 2t to 3t.
次に電流密度の設計が重要であり、蒸発源からの基板へ
の入熱を計算で求めて(正確には求められないがおよそ
の見当をつけることはできる。)それを補償するように
幅方向の電流密度を変化させ、全ての物性値が幅方向に
均一になるように実験的に求めていけば良い。Next, it is important to design the current density, and the heat input from the evaporation source to the substrate is calculated (it cannot be determined exactly, but it is possible to get a rough idea), and the width is adjusted to compensate for it. All physical property values may be experimentally determined by changing the current density in the width direction so that they are uniform in the width direction.
大ずかみに傾向をいえば、第2図(A) 、 (B)に
示すような関係を基礎にして調整すればいい。Broadly speaking, adjustments can be made based on the relationships shown in Figure 2 (A) and (B).
考え方は、入熱が磁気特性の均一化を図った時に例えば
(A) 、 (B) (もちろんこれ以外のパターンも
当然予測される。)のように分布したとすると、幅方向
を蒸着時の冷却で補償するか、加熱で補償するかである
が、単に加熱で補償するのは、高分子成形物基板は融点
が低いので危険であり、加熱するにしても冷却条件の変
動が幅、長手方向で小さいようにすることが基本である
。The idea is that if the heat input is distributed as shown in (A) and (B) (of course, other patterns are naturally expected) when the magnetic properties are made uniform, then the width direction is Compensation can be done by cooling or by heating, but it is dangerous to simply compensate by heating because the melting point of the polymer molded substrate is low, and even if heating is done, the cooling conditions will fluctuate in width and length. The basic idea is to make it as small as possible in the direction.
電子注入により、トラップされた電荷により生ずる静電
界による基板と回転支持体との間の密着力が制御される
点を利用して、入熱と冷却とをバランスさせるのが本発
明の思想である。The idea of the present invention is to balance heat input and cooling by utilizing the fact that electron injection controls the adhesion between the substrate and the rotating support due to the electrostatic field generated by the trapped charges. .
