ABSTRACT:
A magneto-optical recording and reproducing device is provided with a magneto-optical disk for reproducing recorded information using light, a semiconductor laser, an objective lens for converging a light beam emitted from the semiconductor laser onto the magneto-optical disk and a light interrupting member for interrupting a portion of a light beam before it is incident on the objective lens. The magneto-optical disk is composed of a readout layer which is predominant in in-plane magnetization, and in which a transition occurs to be predominant in perpendicular magnetization as temperature thereof is raised and a recording layer for recording thereon information using a perpendicular magnetization. In this arrangement, since the light interrupting member is provided, a light spot can be made smaller, thereby improving a recording density. Moreover, even when temperature of the readout layer is raised due to a side robe generated by the light interrupting member, in-plane magnetization is maintained in the readout layer. Thus, interference by unwanted reproducing signals due to the side robe can be prevented, thereby improving a reproducing signal quality.
