A non-magnetic substance particle arrangement method is provided which can regularly arrange non-magnetic substance particles such as abrasive particles very easily and very cost effectively and can be applied to techniques such as micro grinding work, micro component assembly, and micro decorating work. The method includes the steps of: coating a magnetic fluid mixed with the non-magnetic substance particles on a surface of a magnetic recording medium recorded with a magnetic pattern; and applying a uniform d.c. magnetic field or an a.c. magnetic field superposed upon the d.c. magnetic field to the surface of the magnetic recording medium to form the non-magnetic substances in an in-plane of the magnetic recording medium or cubically on the magnetic recording medium.
