The present invention enables to execute accurate magnetic transfer without signal omission and the like, by bringing a master carrier which bore transfer information and a slave medium to undergo transfer into close contact with each other uniformly and without a gap when they are received in a holder and brought into confronted close contact with each other. In a magnetic transfer apparatus for executing magnetic transfer by applying magnetic field for transfer generated by a magnetic field applying apparatus after master carriers 3, 4 which bore transfer information and a slave medium 2 to undergo transfer are brought into confronted close contact with each other and received in a holder 10, materials 6, 7 having elastic characteristic are interposed between the holder 10 and master carriers 3, 4, thereby allowing microdeformation of master carriers 3, 4 to enhance the close contact capability with the slave medium.
A magnetic transfer apparatus which executes magnetic transfer by applying a magnetic field for transfer after a master carrier that bore transfer information and a slave medium to be subjected to transfer are brought into confronted close contact with each other and received within a holder, characterized in that a material having an elastic property is interposed between said holder and said master carrier, wherein a Young's modulus of the material having an elastic property is not less than 5.0×10−5 Pa and not more than 3.0×10−2 Pa.
A magnetic transfer apparatus which executes magnetic transfer by applying a magnetic field for transfer after a master carrier that bore transfer information and a slave medium to be subjected to transfer are brought into confronted close contact with each other and received within a holder, characterized in that a material having an elastic property is interposed between said holder and said master carrier, wherein a thickness of the material having an elastic property is not less than 0.01 mm and not more than 1.0 mm.
A magnetic transfer apparatus which executes magnetic transfer by applying a magnetic field for transfer after a master carrier that bore transfer information and a slave medium to be subjected to transfer are brought into confronted close contact with each other and received within a holder, characterized in that a material having an elastic property is interposed between said holder and said master carrier, wherein a quantity of dusts having a size of 0.5 μm or over to be generated from the surface of said material having an elastic property interposed between the holder and the master carrier is 0 particles/cm2.
A magnetic transfer apparatus which executes magnetic transfer by applying a magnetic field for transfer after a master carrier that bore transfer information and a slave medium to be subjected to transfer are brought into confronted close contact with each other and received within a holder, characterized in that a material having an elastic property is interposed between said holder and said master carrier, wherein a quantity of dusts having a size of not less than 0.3 μm and less than 0.5 μm to be generated from the surface of said material having an elastic property interposed between the holder and the master carrier is at most 5 particles/cm2.
A magnetic transfer apparatus which comprises a holder for receiving a master carrier that bore transfer information and a slave medium to be subjected to transfer within a closed space so that they are brought into confronted close contact with each other;
A magnetic transfer method of executing magnetic transfer by applying magnetic field for transfer after a master carrier that bore transfer information and a slave medium to be subjected to transfer are brought into confronted close contact with each other and received within a holder,
