A method to cut the domain walls into a set of parallel thin-limit layers is introduced.Thus, the problems of light reflected by and transmitting through the domain walls are equivalent to those by thin-limit multilayer systems. The equation of Kerr rotation angle induced by domain walls is deduced. It is found that the Kerr rotation angle depends on the thickness of domain walls in the double-layered films.","PeriodicalId":212484,"journal":{"name":"Optical Storage and Information Data Storage","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129088670","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The magnetic and optical properties of the recording media, hence the read-write-erase characteristics of the disk, are crucially dependent on the composition of the RE-TM films. Tailoring the composition of the films to meet the requirements in various magneto-optical recording applications is, therefore, important. In-line sputtering is the most common method for RE-TM film coating in disk production process. There are two common methods for fabricating sputter target; one is powder-sintering, the other is melt-casting. The former method yields a target composed of mixtures of pure element phases and certain percentage of intermetallic compound phases, the latter method yields a target composed of 100% intermetallic compound phases. The sputtering of RE-TM target often gives nonuniform composition distribution on the disk based on past experiences. This problem motivated us to study the sputtered atom distribution of the targets which were fabricated by different methods.","PeriodicalId":212484,"journal":{"name":"Optical Storage and Information Data Storage","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117141526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

V-VI compounds (GeTe, SnTe) are well known as compounds in which the ferroelectric structural phase transition occurs. The dielectric constant (epsilon) 0 changes largely due to a change in the short-range order of weakly bound nearest neighbors in the crystal to more strongly bound nearest neighbors in the amorphous phase. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss the effect of Sb addition in the stoichiometric GeTe-Sb2Te3 composition upon the dynamic properties of crystallization and the dielectric constant change (Delta) (epsilon) 0 based on the ferroelectric phase transition.","PeriodicalId":212484,"journal":{"name":"Optical Storage and Information Data Storage","volume":"17 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127045986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
