Abstract

See full text

The substrate of a magnetic recording medium is laser textured with uniformity and precision employing a fiber optic laser delivery system to form a laser textured landing zone and a laser textured decoupled data zone. A continuous wave laser light beam is split into first and second continuous wave laser light sub-beams. The first continuous laser light sub-beam is impinged on a rotating substrate surface through a microfocusing lens system to laser texture a data zone. The second continuous wave laser light sub-beam is converted into a pulsed laser light beam and passed through a microfocusing lens to impinge on the substrate surface to laser texture a data zone.
