The intermittent deposition technique using 10-nm-thick Cr unit layers was performed to improve structural and magnetic characteristics of the Co–Cr–Ta recording layer deposited on the Cr underlayers. The Cr layers were composed of 10-nm-thick Cr unit layers intermittently deposited at intervals of 3 min or with N2 flow for 10 s between the depositions of each unit layer, in order to prevent the growth of Cr crystallites. The intermittent deposition of the Cr underlayers decreased in crystallite size 〈D〉Cr(200) and increased the coercivity Hc of the Co–Cr–Ta recording layer. N2 flow degraded the crystalinity of the Cr underlayer and decreased Hc∥ of the recording layer.
