HIGH-DENSITY MAGNETO-OPTICAL RECORDING/REPRODUCING APPARATUS AND HIGH-DENSITY MAGNETO-OPTICAL RECORDING/REPRODUCING METHOD

摘要

It is an object of the present invention to provide a high density magneto-optical recording/reproducing apparatus and a high density magneto-optical recording/reproducing method for recording a mark on a recording medium in a manner such that an edge position of a mark reproduced from the recording medium may not be varied. The magneto-optical recording/reproducing apparatus for recording/reproducing an information mark on/from a magneto-optical recording medium includes means for determining the length of a first recording information mark and means for adjusting the intensity of a recording magnetic field for recording a second information mark depending on the length of the first information mark recorded immediately before the second recording information mark.
