K. Shimazaki et al., NEW MAGNETIC DOMAIN EXPANSION MO PHENOMENA USING AN INPLANE MAGNETIZING LAYER, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 34(4), 1998, pp. 2009-2011
For higher density MO recording, a magnetic domain expansion readout m
ethod named MAMMOS has been proposed [1]. Herein we report a novel MAM
MOS scheme using an in-plane to perpendicular magnetization changing e
ffect. Expansion readout has been achieved by both a magnetic field mo
dulation method and a light intensity modulation method. A clearly amp
lified readout signal was reproduced from.repetition of 0.2 mu m packe
d marks.
