Abstract
A method for producing a magnetic recording medium, which comprises forming, by sputtering, a thin undercoating layer and a thin cobalt alloy magnetic layer sequentially on a substrate, wherein an intermediate electrode is provided in the vicinity of the target to enclose at least 1/2 of the circumference of the sputter erosion end of the target, and at least one of the undercoating layer and the cobalt alloy magnetic layer is formed under such condition that a positive potential relative to the substrate and the grounded portion of the main body of the layer-forming apparatus, is applied to the intermediate electrode.
