Abstract

An information recording apparatus using a recording medium which holds information by reversed magnetic domains on a perpendicular magnetic recording film includes an irradiation unit for applying electromagnetic energy or light onto the recording medium, and a magnetic flux detection unit for detecting magnetic leakage flux emerging from the recording medium, the magnetic flux detection unit being disposed on the same side as the irradiation unit with respect to the recording medium. As a result, both side recording of the recording medium can be conducted.
