Abstract
Gd and Bi are used as sputter sources and are simultaneously sputtered, or sputtered alternately, each time in an amount for forming a layer having a thickness of 10 atoms or less, thereby forming a thin film on a substrate, in which Gd and Bi are mixed at a ratio of 4:3. The thin film is heat-treated to form a crystalline thin film having a phase represented by Gd.sub.4 Bi.sub.3.
