Magnetic transfer method for perpendicular magnetic recording medium, perpendicular magnetic recording medium, and magnetic recording apparatus

摘要

The invention provides a magnetic transfer method including: a magnetic transfer step of applying a magnetic field for transfer parallel to the plane of a disk shaped substrate (47) having formed on the surface thereof a pattern composed of magnetic layer arrangement corresponding to information to be transferred to a slave disk (40) being a perpendicular magnetic recording medium (40) while a master disk (46) being the substrate (47) is brought into close contact with the slave disk (40), and thereby transferring the magnetic pattern of the master disk (46) to the slave disk (40); and a servo correction information writing step of writing by use of a magnetic head, servo correction signal information (62) into a section adjacent to the information transferred to the slave disk (40) by the magnetic transfer step.
