Abstract
Magnetic recording media with high coercivity and low noise, suitable for high density longitudinal recording, are formed with a surface oxidized sub-seedlayer between a non-magnetic substrate and seedlayer. Embodiments include depositing a NiAl sub-seedlayer on a glass or glass-ceramic substrate, oxidizing the surface of the NiAl sub-seedlayer, and then sequentially depositing a NiAl seedlayer, Cr or Cr alloy underlayer, e.g., CrMo, an optional intermediate CoCrTa alloy layer, a magnetic layer, e.g., a Co-alloy magnetic layer, and a protective overcoat, e.g., a carbon-containing protective overcoat.
