Abstract

Magnetically induced super resolution (MSR) is a new technology developed by us. It more than doubles the readout resolution limit of a conventional optical disk system without shortening the laser wavelength or increasing the numerical aperture (N.A.) of the objective lens. We examined the characteristics of the readout signals of an MSR-by-RAD (rear aperture detection) disk and obtained a high C/N of more than 49 dB and good stability of the edge position at a mark length of 0.4 µm. We investigated the high-density MO disk system using the MSR-by-RAD disk. Owing to optimization of the writing process and waveform equalization, the system achieved a byte error rate of less than 10-4 at a bit length of 0.3 µm. This bit length corresponds to a linear density more than three times higher than that of the conventional 130-mm MO disk system of the ISO standard.
