Abstract

Abstract A method of recording information on a magneto-optic information storage medium having a normal magnetization film, comprising modulating a recording beam of light with the pieces of information to be recorded on the information storage medium; irradiating the normal magnetization film with the modulated beam of light in the presence of a bias magnetic field; detecting the sensitivity of recording of the information storage medium throughout the recording area of the information storage medium; and controlling the bias magnetic field to vary with the detected sensitivity of recording.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 180 words
A method of recording information on a magneto-optic information storage medium having a normal magnetization film, comprising steps of: modulating a recording beam of light with the pieces of information to be recorded on said information storage medium; irradiating said normal magnetization film with the modulated beam of light in the presence of a bias magnetic field; detecting the sensitivity of recording of each portion of the information storage medium throughout the recording area of the information storage medium by operations of irradiating said information storage medium with a readout beam of light for reading out the pieces of information recorded on the disc by said recording beam of light while the information storage medium is being irradiated with the modulated recording beam of light, producing binary signals representative of the pieces of information read out by said readout beam of light, detecting the level of the envelope of said binary signals and producing a signal representative of the detected envelope level; and controlling said bias magetic field on the basis of said signal representative of the detected envelope level.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 180 words
A method of recording information on a magneto-optic information storage medium having a normal magnetization film, comprising steps of: modulating a recording beam of light with the pieces of information to be recorded on said information storage medium; irradiating said normal magnetization film with the modulated beam of light in the presence of a bias magnetic field; detecting the sensitivity of recording of each portion of the information storage medium throughout the recording area of the information storage medium by operations of irradiating said information storage medium with a readout beam of light for reading out the pieces of information recorded on the disc by said recording beam of light while the information storage medium is being irradiated with the modulated recording beam of light, producing binary signals representative of the pieces of information read out by said readout beam of light, detecting the level of the envelope of said binary signals and producing a signal representative of the detected envelope level; and controlling said bias magetic field on the basis of said signal representative of the detected envelope level.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 115 words
A method of recording information on a magneto-optic information storage medium having a normal magnetization film comprising: modulating a recording beam of light with the pieces of information to be recorded on said information storage medium; irradiating said normal magnetization film with the modulated beam of light in the presence of a bias magnetic field; detecting the sensitivity of recording of the information storage medium throughout the recording area of the information storage medium; and controlling said bias magnetic field to vary with the detected sensitivity of recording, in which the information storage medium is irradiated with said modulated beam of light after the sensitivity of recording of the information storage medium has been detected.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 115 words
A method of recording information on a magneto-optic information storage medium having a normal magnetization film comprising: modulating a recording beam of light with the pieces of information to be recorded on said information storage medium; irradiating said normal magnetization film with the modulated beam of light in the presence of a bias magnetic field; detecting the sensitivity of recording of the information storage medium throughout the recording area of the information storage medium; and controlling said bias magnetic field to vary with the detected sensitivity of recording, in which the information storage medium is irradiated with said modulated beam of light after the sensitivity of recording of the information storage medium has been detected.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 181 words
A method as set forth in claim 2, in which said bias magnetic field is controlled by modulating a beam of light with a monitor signal; irradiating said information storage medium with the beam of light modulated with the monitor signal in the presence of a constant bias magnetic field; further irradiating the information storage medium with a readout beam of light for reading out the pieces of information recorded on the disc by the beam of light modulated with said monitor signal while the information storage medium is being irradiated with the beam of light modulated with the monitor signal; producing binary signals representative of the pieces of information read out by said readout beam of light; detecting the level of the envelope of said binary signals and producing a signal representative of the detected envelope level; registering the signal representative of the detected envelope level; and controlling said bias magnetic field on the basis of the registered signal representative of the detected envelope level while the information storage medium is being irradiated with the modulated recording beam of light.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 32 words
A method as set forth in claim 3, in which said monitor signal consists of a frequency-modulated signal representative of said pieces of information to be recorded on the information storage medium.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 44 words
A method as set forth in claim 3, in which said monitor signal has a substantially fixed level and a frequency identical with the carrier frequency of a frequency-modulated signal representative of said pieces of information to be recorded on the information storage medium.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 47 words
A method as set forth in claim 2, in which a location of said information storage medium at which said recording beam of light is incident on said normal magnetization film is detected and said bias magnetic field is controlled to vary depending upon said detected location.
