ABSTRACT:
The depth of focus of a lens focusing system for laser texturing a magnetic recording medium is increased by reversing the lens system. Lens reversal provides symmetrical energy distributions in both negative and positive defocus ranges. An embodiment includes a lens focusing system comprising a planoconvex lens, wherein the laser light beam is passed into the planar surface and out through the convex surface to impinge upon a substrate. Another embodiment includes a multiple lens focusing system comprising an aplanatic meniscus lens and a companion doublet, wherein the laser light beam is sequentially passed into a concave surface of the aplanatic meniscus lens and through the companion doublet lens.
