Abstract
A master for magnetic transfer is provided that obtains favorable close contact with a slave medium, is capable of good positioning therewith, and prevents positional misalignment, damage, and separation failures. The master carrier is formed to have surface properties such that a frictional characteristic value F/P·A is within a range from 173 to 24/cm, and preferably within a range from 112 to 45/cm, when the master carrier and the slave medium are placed in uniform close contact with a contact area A, a vertical load P is applied, the master carrier and the slave medium are pulled in their planar directions, and the maximum static friction at this time is designated as F. It is also preferable that a hard protective layer of DLC film is formed on the surface of the master carrier, and that a lubricant is provided on the hard protective layer, as necessary.
