Abstract
A magnetic recording medium achieves excellent noise reduction by controlling the crystal orientation of a magnetic layer without thermal processing. The magnetic recording medium includes multiple layers laminated to a substrate. These layers include at least the magnetic layer and a non-magnetic under layer. The magnetic layer has a granular structure consisting of ferromagnetic grains with a hexagonal close-packed structure and non-magnetic grain boundaries composed mainly oxide or a nitride. The non-magnetic under-layer is a material having a body centered cubic crystal structure with a preferential orientation along a (200) plane parallel to a film surface of the under-layer.
