A transducer comprises a slider and a laser arrangement. The laser arrangement is configured to heat a region of a magnetic medium in proximity to the slider and produce modulated laser light to cause heat-induced modulation of the slider. The laser arrangement is configured to couple laser light at a power that reduces a coercivity of magnetic material at the region for writing data to or erasing data at the region, and couple modulated laser light to cause heat-induced modulation of the slider at a power lower than the power for writing data to or erasing data at the magnetic medium.
