Abstract

In a magnetic recording medium having an oxygen-containing thin ferromagnetic metal layer formed on a nonmagnetic substrate, at least one compound capable of suppressing the hydration of the ferromagnetic metal ions by acting thereon is located on or in the vicinity of the surface of the thin ferromagnetic metal layer. A lubricant may further be applied on the thin ferromagnetic metal layer.
