ABSTRACT:
A magneto-optic head for reading and writing information on a magneto-optic recording medium so that diffraction effects can be monitored during writing is disclosed. The magneto-optic head includes a source of laser light for projecting a laser light beam during writing and reading, a first partial polarizing beamsplitter disposed in the beam of light for causing one beam of light to be transmitted to the recording medium and for receiving reflected light and for projecting such light in a first direction, a second polarizing beamsplitter for receiving polarized light in the first direction from the first partial polarizing beamsplitter and projecting such polarized light in second and third directions, a first detector for receiving light in the second direction from the second polarizing beamsplitter and a second detector for receiving light in the second direction from the second polarizing beamsplitter, each detector including at least two photosensitive elements being split in the in-track direction so that in-track diffraction effects can be determined.
