Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The magnetic recording medium includes a non-magnetic support; and a magnetic layer including a ferromagnetic powder, in which the ferromagnetic powder is a ferromagnetic powder selected from the group consisting of a hexagonal strontium ferrite powder and an ε-iron oxide powder, the number of recesses having a depth which is ⅓ or more of a minimum recording bit length existing on a surface of the magnetic layer is less than 10/10,000 μm 2 , and a ratio d/t mag of a value d which is ⅓ of the minimum recording bit length to a thickness t mag of the magnetic layer is 0.15 to 0.50.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A magnetic recording medium comprising: a non-magnetic support; and a magnetic layer including a ferromagnetic powder, wherein the ferromagnetic powder is a ferromagnetic powder selected from the group consisting of a hexagonal strontium ferrite powder and an ε-iron oxide powder, the number of recesses having a depth which is ⅓ or more of a minimum recording bit length existing on a surface of the magnetic layer is less than 10/10,000 μm 2 , a ratio d/t mag of a value d which is ⅓ of the minimum recording bit length to a thickness t mag of the magnetic layer is 0.20 to 0.50, and the anisotropy magnetic field Hk of the magnetic layer is equal to or greater than 18 kOe. 2. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , further comprising: a non-magnetic layer including a non-magnetic powder between the non-magnetic support and the magnetic layer. 3. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 further comprising: a back coating layer including a non-magnetic powder on a surface of the non-magnetic support opposite to a surface provided with the magnetic layer. 4. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the number of recesses is 1/10,000 μm 2 to 9/10,000 μm 2 . 5. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , which is a magnetic tape. 6. A magnetic recording and reproducing device comprising: the magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 ; and a magnetic head. 7. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 6 , wherein a minimum recording bit length of the magnetic recording and reproducing device is 10 nm to 40 nm. 8. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 6 , wherein the magnetic recording medium further comprises a non-magnetic layer including a non-magnetic powder between the non-magnetic support and the magnetic layer. 9. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 6 , wherein the magnetic recording medium further comprises a back coating layer including a non-magnetic powder on a surface of the non-magnetic support opposite to a surface provided with the magnetic layer. 10. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 6 , wherein the number of recesses is 1/10,000 μm 2 to 9/10,000 μm 2 . 11. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 6 , wherein the magnetic recording medium is a magnetic tape.
