Abstract
A perpendicular magnetic recording medium without shift or loss of written signals even in a case of a high recording density in a rare earth-transition metal alloy amorphous film, and where productivity is excellent. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium includes a soft magnetic under layer, an intermediate layer, a magnetic recording layer including a rare earth-transition metal alloy amorphous film and at least one of Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, B, Al, C and Si or a boride or carbide uniformly dispersed in the rare earth-transition metal alloy amorphous film, a protective layer, a liquid lubricant layer, and a nonmagnetic substrate. The soft magnetic under layer, the intermediate layer, the magnetic recording layer, and the protective layer are built up in a predetermined order on the nonmagnetic substrate.
