摘要:
A reproduction layer, a magnetic domain extending layer, an intermediate layer, and a recording layer are formed in this order. The magnetic domain extending layer, the intermediate layer, and the recording layer are exchange-coupled. The intermediate layer has a Curie temperature lower than that of any other magnetic layer. A non-magnetic intermediate layer is formed between the reproduction layer and the magnetic domain extending layer. Upon reproduction, magnetization information in the recording layer is transferred to and extended in the magnetic domain extending layer, where an extended magnetic domain is formed. The reproduction layer is magnetostatically coupled with the magnetic domain extending layer, so that the extended magnetic domain is transferred to the reproduction layer. This makes it possible to provide a magneto-optical recording medium characterized in moving of magnetic domain walls and extension of magnetic domains in good conditions, and increased signal intensity with a simpler structure.

An optical disk of the present invention includes a transparent dielectric film formed on a light incident side of the disk on an opposite side of an optical recording film so as to sandwich the transparent substrate therebetween, for suppressing bimetallic effects caused by a difference in thermal expansion between an optical recording film formed on an optical recording surface and the transparent substrate, whereby changes in tilt against temperature changes can be suppressed. Further, by an optimal selection of a reflectance of the transparent dielectric film, unwanted reflection due to multi-interference can be reduced at the same time.

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 recording medium with a reproducing layer that exhibits in-plane magnetization at room temperature and that comes to exhibit perpendicular magnetization as temperature rises. The second shielding layer is used to block the magnetization of record bits other than a record bit to be reproduced from being copied on a signal reproducing area in the reproducing layer. Consequently, even in the case of high-density record bits in the recording layer, only the magnetization of the record bit to be reproduced is copied on the reproducing layer. Therefore, the application of the magneto-optical recording medium makes it possible to produce superior reproducing signals even in the case where the records bits with high density are formed on the recording layer.

A magneto-optical recording medium having a substrate whereupon a transparent dielectric layer, a readout layer showing in-plane magnetization at room temperature and perpendicular magnetization with an increase in temperature, a metal film layer, a recording layer made of a perpendicularly magnetized film, and a protective layer are formed in this order, wherein the film thickness of the readout layer is between 5 nm and 30 nm, the film thickness of the metal film layer is between 6 nm and 40 nm, and the film thickness of the recording layer is between 20 nm and 80 nm. Since recording domain information at a portion showing in-plane magnetization is masked, even when adjacent recording bit enters into the beam diameter of a light beam focused, it is possible to separately reproduce individual recording bits with high signal quality.

A magneto-optic memory medium including a first dielectric layer having a first main surface and a second main surface; a second dielectric layer for covering the first main surface of the first dielectric layer; and a magneto-optic memory layer for covering the second dielectric layer. The first dielectric layer is formed of an oxide having a refractive index in the range of 2.4 or more and 3.5 or less, and the second dielectric layer is formed of a material containing no oxygen. The magneto-optic memory medium is produced by the steps of forming a first layer by performing reactive sputtering in an atmosphere of a first sputter gas using a material containing a first element as a target; switching the first sputter gas to a second sputter gas; forming a second layer on the first layer by performing reactive sputtering in an atmosphere of the second sputter gas using a material containing the first element as a target; and forming a magneto-optic memory layer on the second dielectric layer.
摘要:
A magneto optical disk comprising: a circular substrate; a recording layer, formed on the substrate, for magneto-optical recording of information; a readout layer, formed between the substrate and the recording layer, for the reproduction of information recorded on the recording layer, wherein the readout layer has a Curie temperature which is higher than the Curie temperature of the recording layer, and exhibits in-plane magnetization at room temperature and a change from in-plane magnetization to perpendicular magnetization when its temperature rises over a certain temperature as a result of the application of a light beam, and wherein the magnetic compensation temperature is set such that it increases from the peripheral edge of the magneto-optical disk toward the center thereof. When the magneto-optical disk is used with a magneto-optical recording and reproducing device using a CAV system, it achieves high-density recording and the reproduction of signals with reduced noise, without causing the light beam control system to be complicated.

In order to provide a magneto-optical recording medium which can select a single recording magnetic domain in the recording layer accurately and expand and transfer the same to the reproducing layer, the magneto-optical recording medium is arranged in the following manner. That is, the magnetization direction of the reproducing layer is in-plane at room temperature and shifts to perpendicular at or above a predetermined temperature Ttrans.. The recording layer is a magnetic layer which is magneto-statically coupled to the reproducing layer and shows the perpendicular magnetization up to its Curie temperature. The magnetic mask layer is provided between the recording layer and reproducing layer, and the magnetization thereof is reduced to 0 (zero) at or above a predetermined temperature (Tm) which is at or above Ttrans.. The magnetization of the magnetic mask layer is larger than that of the recording layer at least in a range between room temperature and Ttrans..
摘要:
A magneto-optical storage medium includes an interference layer, a magnetic domain expansion layer, an intermediate layer, a magnetic masking layer, a recording layer, and a protection layer which are sequentially formed on a substrate. The magnetic domain expansion layer produces a smaller frictional force due to wall coercivity than do the other magnetic layers. The intermediate layer has the Curie temperature TC2 which is lower than those of the other magnetic layers. The magnetic masking layer is in a perpendicular magnetization state at temperatures that are in a proximity of TC2, and changes into an in-plane magnetization state at temperatures that are higher than the proximity of TC2. The recording layer produces a higher coercive force than those produced by the magnetic domain expansion layer at room temperature.
