PURPOSE: To provide a recording medium combined with a vertical magnetization film, in which an in-plane magnetization layer for reducing a noise and preventing the distortion of a reproducing waveform, is used as a recording layer. CONSTITUTION: The magnetic recording medium includes a recording in-plane magnetization film having a easily magnetizable axis in an in-plane direction, and a vertical magnetization film formed on the in-plane magnetization film, whose easily magnetizable axis is oriented in the vertical direction with respect to the easily magnetizable axis of the in-plane magnetization film, and tBr of the vertical magnetization film is set not to exceed 1/5 of tBr of the in-plane magnetization film even at the maximum. |
