摘要:
A magneto-optic disk recording system capable of canceling shifts of the front edge and the rear edge of the record mark due to accumulation of heat. The recording system includes a magneto-optic disk having a record magnetic film, and a magnet for applying a bias magnetic field to the disk in the direction perpendicular thereto. The recording system further includes a laser diode for generating laser beams, an optical head for focusing the laser beam on the disk, a pulse generator for generating square wave pulses with a predetermined period, and a duty ratio controller for alternately increasing and decreasing the duty ratio of the square wave pulses every time data "1" of binary record data is generated. The laser diode is driven by a constant-current circuit for write power. There is connected a switch between the laser diode and the constant-current circuit for write power. The switch is turned on/off in accordance with the output pulse of the duty ratio controller so that the laser diode emits a pulsed beam.

A magneto-optic recording method and a magneto-optic recording apparatus in which a magneto-optic overwritable medium having two layers, which layers have different coercive force--temperature characteristics and are coupled by exchange interaction, is heated by applying a light beam while an external magnetic field is being applied to the medium and in which data coded to invariably have FALSE states between two TRUE states is turned into a light beam having dual power levels and recorded on the medium, the magneto-optic recording method including the steps of: forming record marks by heating the magneto-optic overwritable medium to a high temperature by means of a high light beam power associated with a FALSE state in the write data; and of heating the magneto-optic overwritable medium to a low temperature by means of a low light beam power associated with a TRUE state in the write data.

The recording system includes a magneto-optic overwrite disk having a memory magnetic film and a record magnetic film, a first magnet for applying an initialization magnetic field with a first strength vertically to the disk, and a second magnet for applying a bias magnetic field with a second strength smaller than the first magnetic field to the disk in the direction opposite to the initialization magnetic field. The recording system further includes a laser diode for generating laser beams, an optical head for focusing the laser beam on the disk, a pulse generator for generating square wave pulses with a predetermined period, and a duty ratio controller for alternately increasing and decreasing the duty ratio of the square wave pulses every time data "1" of binary record data is generated. The laser diode is driven by a constant-current circuit for write power. There is connected a switch between the laser diode and the constant-current circuit for write power. The switch is turned on/off in accordance with the output pulse of the duty ratio controller so that the laser diode emits a pulsed beam.

An apparatus for reading out data recorded on a magneto-optic disk by detecting edges of magnetic domains formed such that the direction of magnetization thereof is opposite to the direction of the magnetization initially formed on the magneto-optic disk, the edges of the magnetic domains corresponding to "1"s of the recorded data. The data read out apparatus includes a read out signal generation portion for generating a read out signal by scanning the magnetic domains on the magneto-optic disk, a binarization portion for converting the read out signal into a binarized signal, and an edge detection portion for detecting from the binarized signal a front edge signal and a rear edge signal corresponding to the front edge and the rear edge of the magnetic domains, respectively. A front edge signal from a fixed delay device and a rear edge signal from a variable delay device are input to an OR circuit and an edge signal is output therefrom. A phase-locked loop circuit generates a clock signal synchronized with the edge signal and this clock signal is used in a data separator for separating the data from the edge signal output from the OR circuit.

A method and apparatus for optical recording addresses a problem of edge shift which occurs during the recording. The apparatus includes a rotating mechanism for rotating an optical medium, and an optical head having a light source for recording information on the optical medium. A moving mechanism moves the optical head to a predetermined position on the optical medium, and a recording controlling device controls light source of the optical head in accordance with a recording pulse. The recording controlling device includes a pulse width measuring device for measuring the pulse width of a recording pulse, and fall controlling device effects a recording compensation by advancing a fall of the recording pulse with a lead, such that the lead increases with the measured pulse width. A pulse interval measuring device is provided for measuring a pulse interval preceding the recording pulse, and a rise controlling device effects a recording compensation by delaying a rise of the recording pulse with a delay, such that the delay decreases with the measured pulse interval.
