Abstract

See full text

A magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus includes a magnetic head that has a spin-torque oscillator and a magnetic disk and the spin-torque oscillator detects a magnetic field from the magnetic disk and outputs a signal. A criterion used to determine the rotational speed of the magnetic disk, the frequency shift of the spin-torque oscillator produced by a magnetic field from the magnetic disk, a characteristic oscillation frequency of the spin-torque oscillator and the full-width at half maximum of an oscillation spectrum is given in order for a read signal output from the spin-torque oscillator to satisfy a desired signal-to-noise ratio and a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus is configured based on the criterion.
