摘要:
A magneto-optical disk comprises at least a transparent substrate (1) having V-shaped grooves (6) formed therein, a transparent film (3) having a greater refractive index than that of the transparent substrate and a magnetic film (4). Information is recorded between adjacent ones of the V-shaped grooves (6). The V-shaped groove (6) has a depth shallower than λ/6 and deeper than λ/8 where λ represents wave length of laser light with which the magneto-optical disk is irradiated. Optimal tracking signal can be obtained without lowering the push-pull signal intensity for the tracking.

摘要:
A magneto-optical recording medium having a substrate (1) and a magnetic layer composed of at least a recording layer (3) and a supporting layer (4) and being capable of retrieving information by utilizing the fact that when it is irradiated with a laser beam it produces the magneto-optical effect which affects its reflected light, characterized in that the recording layer (3) has a lower Curie temperature than has the supporting layer (4) and the recording layer (3) is thin enough for the laser beam to pass through. A magneto-optical recording medium as defined above, wherein the supporting layer (4) is composed of a first supporting layer and a second supporting layer, and the recording layer (3), the first supporting layer, and the second supporting layer have Curie temperatures of T₁, T₂, and T₃, respectively, which satisfy the following relationship. T₁ A magneto-optical recording medium defined as above, wherein the recording layer (3) has a higher Curie temperature than has the supporting layer (4). Owing to the above-mentioned features, the magneto-optical recording media of the present invention are capable of overwriting and have improved recording sensitivity.

In a magneto-optical disk for recording, reproduction or erasing with a laser beam, which comprises a film of four-layer structure consisting of a first dielectric layer (2), a magneto-optical recording layer (3), a second dielectric layer (4) and a metallic layer (5), laid on a disk substrate (1) provided with guide tracks, temperature distribution of the magneto-optical recording layer (3) is controlled by controlling the thermal diffusivity of the metallic layer (5), and recording/reproduction/erasing repetition characteristics are improved thereby. In the disk of the present structure, the temperature is elevated in a broader area from the center of laser beam, and thus a thoroughly broad erasing domain width taking a track offset into account can be obtained and not recording domains remain after the erasing. The reproduced signal output is increased by 4 dB, as compared with that obtained by a disk of three-layer structure without any metallic layer, because the beam utilization efficiency is increased owing to both Kerr effect and Faraday effect. When the disk of the present structure is subjected to field modulation recording, tails of arrow-feather-shaped recording domains peculiar to the field modulation recording can be shortened and interbit interferences can be overcome, resulting in an increase in C/N (S/N) ratio and the high density recording can be made. By endowing a Kerr enhancement action to the second dielectric layer (4) and a protective action on the magneto-optical layer (3) to the first dielectric layer (2), only the reliability can be improved without lowering the C/N ratio. By improving the corrosion resistance of the magneto-optical recording layer, the first dielectric layer (2) can be omitted to the contrary, and a magneto-optical disk of simple structure can be obtained and used as memory for domestic applications or communication fields.

摘要:
A magneto-optical data recording system comprises magnetic field pulse applying means (27) for applying to a magneto-optic recording medium (1) a magnetic field pulse of a polarity corresponding to code data to be recorded, and means (23, 24, 26, 28) for heating the recording medium in a pulsating manner at a predetermined frequency synchronous with the code data to be recorded. During recording, the magnetic field pulse applying means (27) applies a magnetic field pulse of a polarity corresponding to code data along a track of the recording medium and the heating means continuously heats the recording medium in a pulsating manner at a predetermined frequency synchronous with the code data to thereby directly overwrite the code data. The magnetic field pulse applying means includes a magnetic coil (27) driven by code data from a source of code data (data generator) (37). The heating means includes an optical head which comprises a source of laser beam (23) driven by a laser driver (26) and an optical system (24, 28) which focuses the laser beam from the source of laser beam (23) as a small light spot onto the recording medium (1).
