FUNCTIONAL DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME, VERTICAL MAGNETIC RECORD MEDIUM, MAGNETIC RECORD REPRODUCING UNIT AND INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of manufacturing a functional device formed by filling a functional material in a porous body. SOLUTION: The method of manufacturing the functional device has a process for preparing a structure containing a columnar member and an area enclosing the columnar member, a process for forming the porous body by removing the columnar member from the structure and a process for filling the functional material in the porous body. The columnar member containing and comprising a first material is enclosed by the area containing and comprising a second material, and the second material is contained at a rate of 20 atomic% or more and 70 atomic% or less to the total quantity of the first material and the second material in the structure. The first material is aluminum, and the second material is silicon or a mixture of silicon and germanium. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
