Master carrier for magnetic transfer

摘要

A master carrier (100) for magnetic transfer, has: a support (11) having an information writing region where a projection transfer pattern (21) having a first projection (27) is formed, the first projection corresponding to information to be transferred onto a magnetic recording medium; and a magnetic layer (13) on the transfer pattern of the support (11),
wherein the master carrier has a second projection (27) on a surface of the support and the second projection (27) is formed in a region where the information writing region isn't formed to sustain the region where the information writing region isn't formed while the magnetic recording medium and the support are brought into intimate contact with each other.
