摘要:
An optical disk has address recording sections each of which has a wobbled part of one of side walls of a groove. Each address recording section is formed by providing convexes of a groove in an adjacent land so as to widen the groove. With the wobbles thus provided in a concavo-convex form, address information is recorded. Besides, the address recording sections thus provided in the grooves are linearly disposed in radial directions of the optical disk. By thus arranging the optical disk on whose grooves and/or lands information is recorded, mixing of wobble frequency components in reproduced information signals does not occur, the sector method is applicable to the optical disk, and information signals of high quality can be obtained.

A magneto-optical memory medium according to the present invention comprises a reproducing layer, which has in-plane magnetization at room temperature and perpendicular magnetization when heated to above a predetermined temperature by a reproducing light beam; a recording layer, which is magnetostatically coupled to the reproducing layer; and an in-plane magnetized layer, provided adjacent to the recording layer, which has a Curie temperature at the above-mentioned predetermined temperature. In this medium, at temperatures below the predetermined temperature, signals recorded at high density in the recording layer are masked, and the above-mentioned magnetostatic coupling is suppressed, by magnetic masking by the in-plane magnetized layer. At temperatures above the predetermined temperature, however, within a domain forming part of the in-plane magnetized layer, the recording layer and the reproducing layer are magnetostatically coupled, and a recording bit of the recording layer is copied and expanded to a magnetic domain in the reproducing layer. Accordingly, with this medium, by reproducing from an expanded magnetic domain of the reproducing layer, even information from recording bits recorded at high density can be reproduced with high signal quality.

摘要:
A magneto-optical recording medium and a method for reproducing from the magneto-optical recording medium are disclosed. The magneto-optical recording medium includes a base (1), a readout layer (3) formed on the base, which has perpendicular magnetization in a temperature range between room temperature and Curie temperature; a transfer layer (4) formed on the readout layer, which is predominant in in-plane magnetization at room temperature, and in which a transition occurs from in-plane magnetization to perpendicular magnetization at a predetermined temperature above room temperature; and a recording layer (5) formed on the transfer layer, which has perpendicular magnetization in a temperature range between room temperature and Curie temperature. According to the present invention, a recording bit with a diameter smaller than that of a spot of a light beam formed on the readout layer can be reproduced. Moreover, since noise can be reduced, an improvement in a signal quality can be achieved.
摘要:
An optical recording element (4) comprising a recording medium which includes an information recording area formed at every unit in a non-continuous condition, the recording medium further including sample (2) pits disposed at intervals of a fixed distance for providing basic information about the locations of the recording units in the same track. Each sample pit comprises a plurality of pits disposed next to the sequence of the recording units so that the spacing between the pits differs from the spacing between the recording units. At least one of the plurality of pits is a long-sized inclined pit which is inclined at an angle in the range of 6 DEG to 80 DEG to a recording track. A driving system for driving the optical recording element for recording information in the non-continuous recording area or erasing information stored therein with a light beam the output of which is varied as required and checking whether said recording or erasing has been correctly performed, within a very short time in which the light beam passes through the non-continuous recording area. By using the optical recording element in combination with its driving system, the processing speed can be greatly improved and the irradiating position of the light beam at every recording unit can be correctly controlled.
