Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a medium having the static magentic characteristic of coercive force and squareness ratio while using inexpensive Fe by laminating plural layers of thin film layers consisting of iron or an alloy of iron formed by a diagonal vapor deposition method on a non-magnetic base material. CONSTITUTION:Formation of a thin magnetic film layer is accomplished by diagonal vapor deposition such as a method of using a vapor deposition source 7 disposed below a cooling drum 6 and depositing a magnetic material on the surface of a non-magnetic base material 1 let out from an unwinding reel 5 while moving said material into contact with the drum 6. The base material subjected to the vapor deposition is taken up on a reel 8. The min. incident angle theta to the mateial 1 can be adjusted by moving horizontally the position of a shielding plate 9. Ferromagnetic alloys consisting principally of Fe such as Fe-Ni, Fe-Co, Fe-Ni-Co, Fe-Rh, Fe-Cu, Fe-Sm, Fe-Cr, Fe-Si, etc. are usable in addition to Fe alone as the Fe magnetic material. The thin magnetic film layers laminated dividely in plurality in the above-mentioned way have better coercive force than the thin magnetic film layer having the 1st layer of the same thickness even if the total thickness is the same.

(Prior art) In recent years, in response to the increasing demand for high-density magnetic recording, thin-film type thin films have been developed in which a thin film of ferromagnetic metal is formed on a non-magnetic substrate using methods such as vacuum evaporation, nupuncling, and ion blating. Magnetic recording media have been developed, and among them, magnetic recording media with thin films formed by oblique evaporation of Co-based magnetic materials have excellent magnetic properties, and are used for high-density recording, such as being used in microcassette tapes. We are playing a part in the transformation.

00 kD), and the reason for this is as shown in the graph of Fig. 3 (If the thickness exceeds 1000 A, the coercive force decreases rapidly and the squareness ratio also decreases. The desirable values for the squareness and squareness ratios vary depending on what kind of system it is used in, so it is difficult to say, but when using it as a microcassette tape, judging from the bias current setting of a commercially available microcassette recorder, the The value of magnetic force is θ0~7
It is about θ00e, and the squareness ratio is 0.7! ; or more is desirable. Note that (as a lower limit of the thickness of the straight thin film layer, it is preferable that the microcrystals of the oblique evaporation grow sufficiently to take advantage of the effect of the oblique evaporation.

It is unclear that if the total thickness is the same, but the magnetic thin film layer is divided into multiple layers and stacked, the coercive force will be improved compared to a single magnetic thin film layer of the same thickness. This is thought to be because if the thickness is 1000A or more, if the thickness is less than that, adjacent crystals that had grown independently in a columnar shape will fuse with each other, and the oblique evaporation effect will be lost. By interrupting several layers at a thickness below θooX to stop crystal growth, and then depositing again on top of that, a decrease in coercive force can be avoided even if the total thickness is 7000 or more. By repeating these operations 7, the coercive force can be further improved.
