Without applying an external magnetic field, high-density recording beyond the optical resolution limit was realized with light intensity modulation, using Domain Tail Erasing (DTE) and Domain Wall Displacement Detection (DWDD). In order to obtain a sufficiently strong bias field to perform recording with a bias layer introduced into the DTE medium, the stray field distribution during the recording process was studied by simulation. A stray field most effectively worked on the recording layer when the Curie temperature of the bias layer was designed at a certain level below the recording temperature. Furthermore, by replacing a part of the bias layer with a bias assist layer, which had a higher Curie temperature and lower coercive force, an even stronger stray field was generated. According to the simulation, non-bias DTE medium was designed, and as a result a sufficiently low jitter value and dropout rate were obtained without bias magnets at a bit length of 80 nm and a track pitch of 0.74 m, using the same optical parameters of a current DVD.
