摘要:
The information processor uses a portable memory which is able to be overwritten by laser power modulation system. The memory includes a disk-type recording medium (145) incorporated rotatably in a thin case, and carries out write/read/erase by means of a first magnetic field application device (181), a second magnetic field application device (180), and an optical head (210) irradiating light through this case.
摘要:
The present invention provides an optical recording medium using an amorphous-crystalline phase-change for recording and erasing, wherein reflectivity of an optical recording medium-constituting recording film in an amorphous state is larger than that of the optical recording medium-constituting recording film in a crystalline state, or wherein absorptivity of an optical recording medium-constituting recording film in an amorphous state is smaller than that of the optical recording medium-constituting recording film in a crystalline state.
摘要:
An alloy having variable spectral reflectance having a composition which essentially consists of Ag, 30 to 46 wt% of Zn and 0.1 to 15 wt% in total of at least one element selected from elements of groups la, IIa, IVa, Va, Via, Vlla, VIII, Ib to Vb and rare earth elements, the alloy being able to have different crystal structures, one of which is obtained when it is held in solid state at a first temperature above the room temperature, another of which is obtained when the same is held in the solid state at a second temperature lower than said first temperature. Disclosed also is an information recording medium made of the alloy. The alloy exhibits a reversible change in color or spectral reflectance as a result of change between two crystal phases, so that the information recording medium produced from this alloy can be used effectively as the medium for recording, regeneration and erasion of the informations.
摘要:
High density optical information recording even at room temperature is achieved by control of the diameter of crystalline portions exhibiting quantum size effects of fine semiconductor particles (13) distributed in a dielectric matrix (14), using the non-crystalline to crystalline phase transition of the fine particles. The quantum size effects mean that the optical properties of the medium depend on the diameter of the crystalline portions. Various methods of recording, reproducing and erasing information using this optical recording medium are possible. The invention is applicable to other optical devices.
摘要:
An optical recording medium comprises a recording layer (1) capable of reversibly undergoing a phase change between a crystalline state and an amorphous state by irradiation of an electromagnetic energy. The crystalline state of the recording layer is composed of a single phase of substantially a three-component compound or a higher multi-component compound. This medium can provide high speed recording and high speed erasing.
