摘要 |
A manufacturing method of a magnetic recording medium, the magnetic recording medium having a structure where plural magnetic recording areas and isolation areas in a magnetic recording layer are formed on a non-magnetic substrate, the isolation areas being configured to magnetically isolate the magnetic recording areas, the manufacturing method includes a step of forming the magnetic layer on the non-magnetic substrate, the magnetic layer being made of a hard magnetic material having a magnetic coercive force whereby magnetic recording is impossible; and a step of performing ion implantation partially at positions corresponding to the plural magnetic recording areas of the magnetic layer so that the magnetic recording areas are formed by reducing the magnetic coercive force in the positions of the ion implantation to a magnetic-recordable magnetic coercive force, and allowing the isolation areas to maintain the magnetic coercive force whereby magnetic recording is impossible.
