Abstract: A magneto optical disk comprising: a circular substrate; a recording layer, formed on the substrate, for magneto-optical recording of information; a readout layer, formed between the substrate and the recording layer, for the reproduction of information recorded on the recording layer, wherein the readout layer has a Curie temperature which is higher than the Curie temperature of the recording layer, and exhibits in-plane magnetization at room temperature and a change from in-plane magnetization to perpendicular magnetization when its temperature rises over a certain temperature as a result of the application of a light beam, and wherein the magnetic compensation temperature is set such that it increases from the peripheral edge of the magneto-optical disk toward the center thereof.

Abstract: A technique for permitting data transfers between a high speed bus and a low speed bus which operate independently and asynchronously wherein when the low speed bus requires access to the high speed bus, the busy status of the latter bus is determined and transfers are made to the high speed bus at high speed when such bus is not busy. When the high speed bus requires access to the low speed bus, if the low speed bus is busy the requesting master on the high speed bus is temporarily placed in a pending status and is removed from its tenure on the high speed bus, so that the high speed bus is free to handle other requests. When the low speed bus is free, the highest priority pending requestor is provided access to the low speed bus on a priority basis over all then current requestors.

Abstract: A magneto-optical disk, which possesses a disc-shaped substrate and a recording layer composed of a perpendicular magnetization film that is formed on the substrate, characterized in having: an area wherein magnetic domains having an upward magnetization and magnetic domains having a downward magnetization are alternately aligned along at least one circuit of the disk, the area being formed on the recording layer, the length of the magnetic domains having the upward magnetization being virtually equal to the length of the magnetic domains having the downward magnetization. This invention also has a reproducing method which is characterized in that, when information is reproduced by projecting a light beam onto the magneto-optical recording disk, the intensity of the light beam is adjusted so as to maximize the amplitude of a reproduced signal that is obtained from the area.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus provides a photosensitive body, a main charger, an exposing unit, developing unit and a contact-transfer charger. The main charger charges the photosensitive body with a predetermined electric potential. The exposing unit applies a laser beam on the surface of the photosensitive body to form an electric latent image. The developing unit develops the electrostatic latent image to form a toner image. The contact-transfer charger transfers the toner image on an image transfer paper. The image forming apparatus further provides controller for power supplies. The controller controls the power supplies after an image forming operation in a manner to enhance the electric potential of the photosensitive body to a high level by the main charger, drop the surface potential of the photosensitive body to a low level by the contact-transfer charger and then to cut off a bias voltage of the developing unit.
