ABSTRACT:
A magnetic recording medium exhibits reduced magnetic flux modulation and improved signal-to-noise ratio. The magnetic recording medium may take the form of a magnetic tape or a magnetic disk. Providing a magnetic recording layer with a more uniform thickness can improve the magnetic flux modulation characteristic. For example, the magnetic recording medium may have a coercivity of greater than or equal to 2000 Oerstads with a magnetic flux modulation characteristic having a one sigma standard deviation of less than 0.06. In some cases, the magnetic flux modulation characteristic may have a one sigma standard deviation of less than 0.05, or even 0.04. Reduced magnetic flux modulation can support increased storage densities.
