Abstract

See full text

A method for manufacturing a perpendicular magnetic disk 100 that includes a step of forming, on a base 110, a granular magnetic layer 160 in which a grain boundary portion is formed by segregation of a non-magnetic substance containing an oxide as a main component around magnetic particles containing a CoCrPt alloy grown in a columnar shape as a main component. The method also includes a step of forming an auxiliary recording layer 180 that contains a CoCrPtRu alloy as a main component and has a film thickness of 1.5 to 4 nm above the granular magnetic layer, and a step of heating the base formed with the auxiliary recording layer in a temperature range of 210 to 250° C.
