Abstract
A magneto-optic information storage system is disclosed suitable for compensation point recording in the absence of an external bias field. The pulse of light used to erase imparts less energy than the pulse used to write. Also disclosed is a method for directly overwriting data recorded on a magneto-optic medium by applying lower energy erasing pulses of light and higher energy writing pulses.
