Abstract

Amorphous thin film with easy magnetization axis perpendicular to film surface for magneto-optical recording with low recording power and high S/N in reading signal is set forth. The medium is an alloy of heavy rare earth element and iron with substitution of some heavy rare earth elements by light rare earth element, and the preferable chemical formula of the thin film is (R.sub.z A.sub.1-z).sub.x Fe.sub.1-x, or [(R.sub.z A.sub.1-z).sub.y B.sub.1-y ].sub.x Fe.sub.1-x where R is a light rare earth element, A and B are heavy rare earth elements, and the atom ratios satisfy 0.15.ltoreq.x.ltoreq.0.35, 0.00<y<1.00, 0.00<z<1.00. Recording is effected by using Curie point, or magnetic compensation temperature, and reading of information is effected by using the Kerr effect.
