Popis: Land/groove recording on a magnetooptical disk with polyolefin and polycarbonate substrates was demonstrated. The laser wavelength, numerical aperture of the objective lens and focused beam spot size were 680 nm, 0.55 and 1.15 µm, respectively. With a groove pitch of 1.3 µm, a carrier-to-noise ratio (CNR) of more than 45 dB with 0.6 µm mark length and crosstalk of less than -30 dB with 2.4 µm mark length were obtained. The effect of crosstalk cancellation in the polymer substrates was confirmed. Decreasing the vertical birefringence of the substrate improved the jitter and the CNR. The crosserase margin was 0.8 mW. It was identified that the CNR declined with the CNR phase shift.
