Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain hard surface of a titanium substrate, to improve polishing property, to allow high temp. heat treatment so as to improve magnetic characteristics of a magnetic layer, and to decrease surface roughness by forming an oxide layer as the surface layer of the substrate. CONSTITUTION:In the magnetic disk substrate of this invention, the surface layer of the titanium substrate is changed into a titanium oxide layer, titanium nitride layer, or titanium carbide layer, which has harder surface than the titanium substrate itself and improved polishing property. Thereby, the surface roughness can be decreased by surface polishing. The titanium substrate itself hardly deforms by high temp. heating, and the titanium oxide layer, titanium nitride layer, or titanium carbide layer as the surface layer can not be magnetized even when the substrate is subjected to high temp. heat treatment in the process of forming an oxide film thereon. Therefore, high temp. heat treatment to improve magnetic characteristics of the magnetic film can be performed, and the obtd. substrate has small surface roughness.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, as the amount of information has increased, efforts have been made to increase the capacity of magnetic disks and the density of their recording media (magnetic films). In order to improve recording density, it is necessary to reduce the flying height of the magnetic head as much as possible. Therefore, the magnetic disk substrate has a surface roughness (surface smoothness) that can cope with the lower flying height of the magnetic head. Therefore, there is a need for a surface hardness that can bear the impact when it comes into contact with a magnetic head. for example,
Currently, it is required to achieve a magnetic head flying height of 0.1 μm or less, and in this case, the surface roughness required for the magnetic disk substrate is 1/1 of this flying height.
It is said that it is necessary to set the value to 10 or less.

It is necessary to reduce the thickness of the magnetic film (magnetic film), and from this point of view, it is necessary to reduce the thickness of the coated magnetic disk, which has a structure in which a coating recording medium (coating type recording medium) is applied on the substrate, where there is a limit to the reduction of the media film thickness. As alternatives, plated magnetic disks have a structure in which a metal magnetic film is formed on a substrate by plating, and metal sputtered magnetic disks have a structure in which a metal magnetic film is formed on a substrate by sputtering. Some of them are in practical use. As a magnetic disk substrate for such a plating type or metal sputtering type magnetic disk, in order to make the surface hard and reduce the surface roughness, the surface of the base body made of aluminum alloy (aluminum alloy substrate) is coated with a thickness of 10 mm. So-called NiP with electroless NiP plating film of ~15μm
A plated substrate is used.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in this conventional NiP-plated substrate, the electroless NiP-plated film becomes magnetic and the substrate is easily deformed due to heat treatment. There is a problem. For example, it is known that when forming a magnetic film by sputtering, the magnetic properties of the magnetic film are generally improved by increasing the substrate temperature. However, in this case, when the substrate temperature is increased to about 300° C. or higher, the electroless NiP plating film becomes magnetized beyond the specification limit value.

[Operation] In the magnetic disk substrate according to the inventions of claims 1, 2, and 3 of the present application, the surface layer of the titanium substrate is layered with titanium oxide, titanium nitride, and titanium carbide, respectively. Compared to the titanium substrate itself, the surface is harder and has improved polishability, and surface roughness can be reduced by surface polishing. In addition, the titanium substrate itself is extremely difficult to deform even when heated to high temperatures, and the surface layers formed on this titanium substrate, such as titanium oxide layers, titanium nitride layers, and titanium carbide layers, are heated at high temperatures when forming magnetic films. Even if it is processed, it will not become magnetized.
