Abstract
A magneto-optical recording medium comprising a transparent substrate, a first dielectric layer on the substrate, a magneto-optical recording layer on the first dielectric layer and a metal reflecting layer on the magneto-optical recording layer, optically with a second dielecric layer between the magneto-optical recording layer, wherein the magneto-optical recording layer has a Curie temperature Tc of from 100.degree. C. to 200.degree. C. and a layer thickness of from 15 nm to 60 nm, the metal reflecting layer has a layer thickness of not less than 60 nm and a product .lambda.d of a thermal conductivity .lambda. by the layer thickness d of from 2.5 .mu.W/K to 20 .mu.W/K, and the following formula is satisfied: Tc.ltoreq.-10.times..lambda.d+300. This magneto-optical recording medium has an improved stability under repeated recording and erasing, or continuous erasing, operations without a loss of a high recording sensitivity thereof.
