Abstract

A magnetic recording medium obtained by forming a Si-N-O system film on a magnetic recording layer with perpendicular axis of easy magnetization. The magnetic recording layer is a metallic magnetic film such as Co-Cr system alloy film. The oxygen content in the Si-N-O system film is selected preferably to show a maximum absorption of infrared radiation in the range above 830 cm.sup.-1 and below 1100 cm.sup.-1 of 1/.lambda. (.lambda. is the wavelength of the infrared radiation). Through formation of the Si-N-O system film, the magnetic recording medium can satisfy simultaneously both of the durability and the perpendicular magnetic recording characteristics.
