Abstract

A process for producing a master carrier contains steps of: forming a desired pattern on a support to form a resist pattern support; forming a first ferromagnetic thin film on the resist pattern support by a vacuum film forming method; forming a third ferromagnetic thick film on the first ferromagnetic thin film by an electroplating; and peeling the support from the resist pattern support provided with the first ferromagnetic thin film and the third ferromagnetic thick film.

Claims (10)

1. A process of producing a master carrier, which comprises:

forming a support having a projection pattern in accordance with a desired information on a surface of said support;

forming a first ferromagnetic thin film on said support having said projection pattern by a vacuum film forming method;

forming a second ferromagnetic thin film between said first ferromagnetic thin film a third ferromagnetic thick film by said vacuum film forming method;

forming said third ferromagnetic thick film on said first ferromagnetic thin film by an electroplating method and;

wherein said first ferromagnetic thin film has a first saturation magnetization, said third ferromagnetic thick film has a third saturation magnetization, and a ratio of said first saturation magnetization to said third saturation magnetization is larger than 1;

peeling said support from said support provided with said first ferromagnetic thin film and said third ferromagnetic thick film.

2. The process of producing a master carrier according to claim 1 , wherein said third ferromagnetic thick film comprises nickel.

3. The process of producing a master carrier according to claim 1 , where said second ferromagnetic thin film and said third ferromagnetic thick film comprise a same element.

4. The process of producing a master carrier according to claim 3 , wherein said second ferromagnetic thin film has a film thickness of 10 nm to 100 nm.
