Substrate-Holder, Etching Method of the Substrate, and the Fabrication Method of a Magnetic Recording Media

摘要

A substrate holder that forms a concavo-convex pattern on recording layers of both of front and back sides of a magnetic recording media is provided. The substrate holder includes an insulator member having a concave portion that holds the etching substrate and a through-hole formed just below the concave portion, and a conductive member having a convex portion that is engaged with the through-hole. A gap is defined between a front side of the convex portion and the bottom surface of the substrate in a state where the etching substrate is mounted on the concave portion, and a thickness of the gap is equal to or higher than 0.5 mm and equal to or lower than 1 mm, and a thickness of the insulator member is equal to or higher than 1 mm and equal to or lower than 15 mm.
