摘要
An optical near-field transducer composed of a rectangular patch and a protruded peg has been numerically studied for heat-assisted magnetic recording. This transducer strongly interacts with a planar solid immersion focusing field and efficiently couples optical energy into a recording medium in a region determined by the peg cross-section. The transducer is excited through the electric field predominantly normal to its edges. The optimal size of the rectangular patch is found to be a half-wave optical antenna in height and between half-wave and full-wave in width. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.
