Claims
- 1. A vertical magnetization type recording medium comprising a nonmagnetic support made of polyethyleneterphthalate or polyimide, a soft magnetic layer comprising Fe-Al-Si or Fe-Ni-Mo-Cu formed on each of two sides of said support, and a vertical magnetization film layer comprising an alloy material essentially containing Co and Cr formed on each of said soft magnetic layers, said vertical magnetization film layers and soft magnetic film layers being formed by the process comprising the steps of:
- forming a soft magnetic film layer on each of said two sides of said support by high speed continuous sputtering; and
- then forming a vertical magnetization film layer by high speed continuous sputtering on each of the soft magnetic film layers thus formed.
- 2. The recording medium of claim 1, wherein said soft magnetic film layers are formed by sputtering using soft magnetic film sources provided around cylindrical cans, and said vertical magnetization film layers are formed by sputtering using vertical magnetization film sources provided around said cylindrical cans.
- 3. The recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein said soft magnetic film layers are formed at a temperature in a range of 30.degree. to 90.degree. C., and said vertical magnetization film layers are formed at a temperature of at least 90.degree. C.
- 4. The recording medium as claimed in claim 3, where said soft magnetic film layers are formed at a temperature in a range of 45.degree. to 65.degree. C.
- 5. The recording medium as claimed in claim 3, wherein said vertical magnetization film layers are formed at a temperature of at least 120.degree. C.
- 6. The recording medium as claimed in claim 3, wherein said support is treated in advance by a process for decreasing the discharge of impurity gas from said support.
- 7. The recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein a thickness of said soft magnetic film layers is in a range of 0.03 to 5 microns.
- 8. The recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein a thickness of said soft magnetic film layers is in a range of 0.1 to 1 micron.
- 9. The recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein an easy magnetizing axis of said vertical magnetization film layers is oriented perpendicular to a surface of said support.
- 10. The recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein a thickness of said vertical magnetization film layers is in a range of 0.03 to 5 microns.
- 11. The recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein a thickness of said vertical magnetization film layers is in a range of 0.05 to 1 micron.
- 12. The recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein said recording medium further comprises a base layer, an intermediate layer, and an overcoat layer on each side of said support.
