Overview

This book deals with many aspects of high density digital recording. It begins with very basic concepts in magnetism and magneto-optics, then continues with the synthesis and physical properties of recording media, thin films and particulate media. More technological aspects of recording heads and their contact with the recording media are also discussed in subsequent chapters. The second part of the book is devoted to the magneto-optical properties of various recording media and to the engineering of magneto-optical recording.
