摘要:
In a magneto-optical recording medium including a reading-out layer, which is in an in-plane magnetization state at a room temperature and in a perpendicular magnetization state when the temperature rises, and a recording layer, which is in a perpendicular magnetization state at a room temperature to a Curie point, an intermediate layer having in-plane magnetization component and a lower Curie point than the recording medium is formed between the reading-out layer and the recording layer so as to abruptly change magnetization state of the reading-out layer. Since magnetization state of the reading-out layer is abruptly changed, recording is carried out highdensely. Moreover, since exchange-coupling between the reading-out layer and the recording layer is controlled, a recording characteristic is improved.

The invention provides magneto-optical recording method and apparatus, in which a space area on a magneto-optical recording medium is irradiated with a beam in the form of a pulse train in which a bottom power and an assist power are alternately repeated, so as to rapidly change the temperature at the front edge of a recording mark, thereby preventing jitter from increasing.

A compact magnetic field applying device rotates and holds a magnetic field generating member using a small-scale, light-weight vibration actuator. A permanent magnet applies a bias magnetic field on a magnetized information recording area of a magnetooptical disk, and is driven by a vibration actuator. When voltage is applied to a piezoelectric element of the vibration actuator, an annular elastic member generates a travelling wave due to a bending vibration in the perimeter direction of a groove on the elastic member. Because the elastic member and a moving member provided on the permanent magnet are pressed into contact by a coil spring, the permanent magnet rotates. When voltage is not applied to the piezoelectric element, because the elastic member and the moving member are pressed into contact, the permanent magnet is held in a specified rotational position.

A photomagnetic head apparatus includes a beam splitter which splits a laser beam, reflected by concentric recording tracks of a rotating photomagnetic recording disc, into three bundles of rays. The three bundles of rays have different polarization directions in a plane which lies in a radial direction of the recording tracks. One of the three bundles of rays is used as a servo-signal light, and the remaining two bundles of rays are used as data signal lights. A defocusing diffraction element splits at least the servo-signal light into a least two bundles of rays in a direction corresponding to the tangential direction of the recording tracks, substantially perpendicular to the split direction of the beam splitter and which provides at least two split lights with a predetermined amount of positive or negative defocus in an optical axis direction. A pair of servo-signal light receiving elements receive the split beams of the servo-signal light produced by the defocusing diffraction element. A data light receiving element receives the data signal lights. The defocusing diffraction element is made of a non-circular element whose numerical aperture in the tangential direction of the recording tracks is smaller than the numerical aperture in the radial direction.

A magnetic head for magneto-optical recording comprises a head body (32) having a sliding portion (37) which causes a head element to come in sliding contact with a magneto-optical disc (1). The sliding portion (37) is disposed on an inner periphery of the magneto-optical disc (1) relative to a central magnetic pole core (14a) of the head element so that, even when the central magnetic pole core 14a is located at an outer peripheral point (A) of the magneto-optical disc (1), the sliding portion (37) can be prevented from hitting a bump portion formed on the outer periphery of the magneto-optical disc (1). Thus, in the sliding type magnetic head for magneto-optical recording, a utilization factor of a reliable recording and reproducing region of the magneto-optical disc (1) can be improved.
摘要:
A frequency modulated signal, which is expected to have level inversions at data bit boundaries, and which is produced by the reflection of a laser beam from a wobbled spiral groove on a disk-shaped recording medium is detected. The frequency modulated signal is demodulated and its signal level at the location just after the absence of a level inversion is corrected. The position of a movable recording/reproducing head is determined in response to the demodulated FM signal; and data is recorded on or reproduced from the recording medium at the determined position.
摘要:
A magneto-optical recording medium has at least a substrate, a first magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer, and a first interface layer provided between the first and second magnetic layers. The first magnetic layer exhibits a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy from room temperature to a Curie temperature thereof. The second magnetic layer has a coercive force lower than A: that of the first magnetic layer at room temperature, has a Curie temperature higher than that of the first magnetic layer, and exhibits a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy from room temperature to a Curie temperature of the second magnetic layer. The first interface layer is made of at least one rare-earth metal and has a thickness of several atoms. With this arrangement, it is possible (1) to carry out light modulation overwriting with respect to the magneto-optical recording medium, (2) to carry out initialization without an initializing magnetic field, and (3) to stabilize recording bits.
摘要:
An optical recording medium in which a medium identification code is recorded as a nonvolatile mark which is formed through irreversible change of a recording film, such as magnetization characteristic change, deformation and formation of a hole, so as to prevent illegal copying of the optical recording medium, and a recording/reproducing method for the same.
