ABSTRACT:
A magneto-optical recording medium is composed of a reproducing layer, a recording layer, and an initializing layer, which are laminated in this order. The reproducing layer is provided so that a light beam is projected thereon so as to reproduce information. The recording layer is provided so that information is recorded therein and the information is copied to the reproducing layer at a readout temperature. The initializing layer is provided so that the reproducing layer is initialized at room temperature. Non-magnetic layers are provided between the reproducing layer and the recording layer and between the recording layer and the initializing layer, respectively, so that such two layers are not exchange-coupled each other. The recording layer has a compensation temperature of room temperature, while the initializing layer has a compensation temperature of the readout temperature, which is achieved by temperature rise caused by the projection of the light beam. With such an arrangement, an external magnetic field for initializing the reproducing layer and an external magnetic field for reproduction-use can be omitted, thereby preventing a recording device from becoming large in size, as well as enhancing the recording density of the recording layer.
