A magneto-optical recording medium 11 has, in order from the laser irradiation side, a second auxiliary magnetic film 4, first auxiliary magnetic film 5, and magneto-optical recording film 6. First and second auxiliary magnetic films 4 and 5 change from in-plane magnetization to perpendicular magnetization when their respective critical temperatures TCR1 and TCR2 are exceeded. The Curie temperatures TC0, TC1 and TC2 of the magneto-optical recording film and the first and the second auxiliary magnetic films 4, 5 and their critical temperatures TCR1 and TCR2 satisfy the relationship: room temperature
摘要:
A magneto-optical recording medium which includes a reproducing layer. When a laser beam is irradiated to the magneto-optical recording medium, a magnetic domain in a recording layer is transferred, through enlargement, to a reproducing layer increased in temperature. The magneto-optical recording medium further includes a calibration area that has a calibration magnetic domain recorded in a predetermined pattern in the recording layer. In a reproducing apparatus, a laser beam of an optical head is adjusted in output depending upon a reproduced signal obtained by reproducing the calibration magnetic domain.

摘要:
External magnetic fields H(x) or reproducing light beams L(x) having different intensity patterns are applied to an identical recording position on a magneto-optical recording medium so that different pieces of information corresponding to the patterns are reproduced from the identical recording position. A function H(x) or L(x) is a password for obtaining the information. Only a person, who knows the function, can access specified information recorded on the magneto-optical recording medium. The function H(x) or L(x) is a function in which the magnetic field intensity or the light intensity is modulated with respect to the recording position x so that magnetic domains may be thinned out to perform reproduction at a specified cycle from continuous magnetic domains in a recording area. Other than the use for the purpose of security, reproduced C/N can be remarkably improved by performing reproduction n times while radiating a reproducing light beam PL/PH which is power-modulated so that the high power PH is applied at every cycle which is not less than n times the recording clock, to a specified magneto-optical recording medium capable of magnetic domain-magnifying reproduction.

摘要:
The magneto-optical recording medium has a magnetic domain magnification reproducing layer and an information recording layer. Clock marks are formed on the information recording layer, making it possible to generate a reproducing clock on the basis of these. The clock marks are detected either by irradiating directly with light of wavelength &lgr;2(&lgr;1≠&lgr;2), being different from the light of wavelength &lgr;1 which is used for reproducing the recording marks, or by applying a direct-current magnetic field, transferring and enlarging the clock marks on to the magnetic domain magnification reproducing layer, and detecting the reproduction signals from this magnetic domain magnification reproducing layer. Since the reproducing clock is in exact synchronisation with the recording marks, it is eminently suitable as a clock for pulse-modulated reproducing light and reproducing magnetic fields used when reproducing the reproducing layer.
摘要:
A reproducing apparatus for a magneto-optical recording medium has, at one end of a swing arm, a magneto-optical head provided with a slider and a solid immersion lens. A reproducing light beam-detecting system is installed to the other end of the swing arm. During reproduction on a magneto-optical recording medium, an alternating magnetic field is applied while radiating a reproducing light beam which is power-modulated to have a low power and a high power in synchronization with a reproducing clock. The reproducing light beam having the low power causes transfer of a magnetic domain in the information-recording layer to the reproducing layer and magnification thereof. The reproducing light beam having the high power extinguishes the magnified magnetic domain. Minute magnetic domains can be individually reproduced at high C/N.
摘要:
A magneto-optical recording medium has magneto-optical recording layers (11, 12, 13) and reproducing layers (21, 22, 23). The information recorded in the reproducing layers are reproduced by means of reproducing light beams (31, 32, 33) of different wavelengths, respectively. In reproduction, magnetic domains (4) recorded in the recording layers are transferred in the reproducing layers formed on the respective recording layers, the transferred magnetic domains (5) are enlarged with an external magnetic field, and the information is reproduced. Since information is recorded and reproduced for each recording layer, the recording density is improved. Further since the reproduction signals are amplified by the magnetic domain enlargement, the C/N is improved.

摘要:
A magnetic recording medium comprises, on a substrate, a recording auxiliary layer, a recording holding layer, recording control layer, and a recording layer. The recording layer is constructed by using a ferri-magnetic material having perpendicular magnetization. The data can be recorded at a super high density by using the recording and reproducing head of the present invention, because the recording layer has the perpendicular magnetization. The disappearance of data, which would be otherwise caused by the thermomagnetic relaxation phenomenon, is suppressed after recording the data, because the recording layer has large coercive force at the room temperature. The data, which is recorded at the super high density on the magnetic recording medium, can be reproduced by using a magnetic resistance element carried on the recording and reproducing head.
