A magnetic recording medium includes a magnetic recording layer composed of an L10 type ordered alloy at a low temperature. The magnetic recording layer of the L10 type ordered alloy exhibits high magnetic anisotropy energy Ku that is necessary for compatibility between improvement in thermal stability and reduction of noises. Specifically, the recording medium includes a nonmagnetic substrate, a nonmagnetic underlayer, a magnetic recording layer, a protective layer, and a liquid lubricant layer sequentially formed on the substrate. The magnetic recording layer is formed by alternately depositing an iron or cobalt layer having thickness in a range of 0.1 nm to 0.3 nm and a platinum layer having thickness of in a range of 0.15 nm to 0.35 nm repetitively. The magnetic recording layer is mainly composed of an alloy of FePt or CoPt that includes a region with an L10 type ordered structure.
