| 单词 | magnetic tape |
| 释义 | magnetic tape A plastic tape coated with a ferromagnetic material - iron oxide powder, chromium dioxide, or, for the best results, particles of pure iron. The tape is used for recording data in tape recorders and computers. To record, the tape is passed over a recording head containing a gap in a magnetic circuit whose magnetization is modulated by the information to be recorded; the information is imprinted on the tape in the form of the direction of magnetization of the individual particles of iron oxide. The particles themselves are not rotated by the magnetizing field: it is their directions of magnetization that are orientated in accordance with the information. In audio-frequency recorders a high-frequency bias (in the range 75–100 kHz) is used to reduce distortion by facilitating the re-orientation. The playback procedure is the reverse of recording; the tape containing its orientation of tiny magnets is fed over the gap of the same (now the playback) head, in whose coil corresponding e.m.f.s are generated by induction |
