A solution for treating a surface of an iron material includes (a) zirconium fluoride; (b) ion of a rare earth element and/or a compound containing a rare earth element; (c) a polyallylamine; (d) aluminum ion; and (e) free fluorine ion. Zirconium in the component (a) is at a weight concentration A of 10 to 1000 ppm. The ratio K of the weight concentration B of the rare earth element in the component (b) to the weight concentration A (B/A) is 0.1 to 30. The component (d) is at a weight concentration D of 50 to 250 ppm. The component (e) is at a weight concentration E of 0.5 to 30 ppm. A coating having excellent corrosion resistance before and after the subsequent coating can be deposited on the surface of an iron material by using the surface treating solution which does not contain environmentally harmful ingredients.

Solution for treating metal surface, surface treating method, and surface treated material

A magnetic gap is formed to be vertical to the film forming surface of a substrate with high accuracy by a simple method. The method comprises a non-magnetic film forming step of forming a non-magnetic film made of the non-magnetic material on the substrate, a high selectivity film forming step of forming a high selectivity film made of a material which has a higher selectivity ratio with respect to reactive ion etching than the non-magnetic material, on the non-magnetic film formed, a patterning step of patterning the high-selectivity film into a predetermined shape, and an etching step of etching the non-magnetic film by reactive ion etching, using the high selectivity film as a mask.
