摘要
We have developed a new perpendicular thermo-magnetic recording method coupled with magnetic flux detection. The resolution is substantially improved by flux detection. Compared to the latest magneto-optical disk drives, the carrier-to-noise ratio of a reproduced signal is 5 dB higher, and the recording density reaches 8.3 Gbit/inch(2). Moreover, this recording method has a good affinity to near-field optics, and it is an effective technique for attaining a higher density beyond the superparamagnetic limitation in longitudinal magnetic recording.
