    Abstract: A device includes a controller with a processor and memory with instructions for controlling power to a light source such that the light source emits a frequency-modulated continuous light beam that, over time, includes an up region, a down region, and a flat region. The up region includes increasing a frequency of the continuous light beam, the down region includes decreasing the frequency of the continuous light beam, and the flat region includes maintaining the frequency of the continuous light beam at a constant frequency.

    Abstract: A light source is configured to produce light, a waveguide is optically coupled to the light source and configured to direct the light to an intended focus location, and a slider is configured to use the light as an energy source for heating a region of a magnetic recording medium. A thermal sensor is situated on the slider at a location outside of a light path that includes the intended focus location. The thermal sensor is configured for sensing a short time constant change in temperature resulting from light source heating of the thermal sensor, wherein the sensed change in thermal sensor temperature is representative of optical intensity of the light delivered to the intended focus location.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a detector and a light source configured to emit light. The apparatus further includes a disk with a set of prisms and that is configured to rotate, arranged to receive and direct the emitted light, and arranged to receive and direct backscattered light. The apparatus further includes a reflecting apparatus with multiple reflective facets and configured to rotate, arranged to reflect the emitted light, and arranged to reflect the backscattered light. A focusing apparatus is arranged to focus the backscattered light from the disk towards the detector.
