ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for a disk texturing operation in which laser pulses are successively bombarded against a delimited surface area on the face of a rotating disk, from an optical laser pulse irradiating means which is put in movement in a radial direction relative to the disk to provide a textured zone of a predetermined width on the disk. A pulsed laser beam from a laser light source is adjusted to an optimum power level for an aimed bump diameter. The laser beam is then transformed into an annular beam of a collimated light flux having specified inner and outer diameters, and the resulting laser pulses are successively bombarded on the texturing zone through an objective optical system condensing said laser pulses into a specified spot diameter thereby to form minute bumps of predetermined shape and diameter uniformly on the surface of the disk.
