ABSTRACT:
A magneto-optical recording method includes the steps of applying an external magnetic field perpendicularly onto the magnetic thin film with perpendicular magnetization of a magneto-optical recording medium and projecting a light beam onto the magneto-optical recording medium; and modulating the intensity of the light beam between the first light intensity and the second light intensity in response to the information to be recorded while shifting a spot of the light beam, thereby recording information. In the above method, the first light intensity is set such that by reducing the coercive force of the magnetic thin film with perpendicular magnetization, a magnetic domain is formed on the magnetic thin film with perpendicular magnetization, and that the magnetic domain is moved as the spot of the light beam is shifted. The second light intensity is set such that by increasing the coercive force of the magnetic thin film with perpendicular magnetization, the magnetic domain is fixed to the position.
