Abstract
On a dielectric layer of SiN a reproduction layer, a non-magnetic layer of SiN and a recording layer of TbFeCo are formed to provide a magneto optical recording medium. The reproduction layer is formed of a first layer corresponding to a Gd layer, a second layer formed of GdFeCo and a third layer corresponding to a Gd layer. As such, the magneto optical recording medium, with the non-magnetic layer formed in contact with the reproduction layer, can prevent the non-magnetic layer from affecting the reproduction layer and thus prevent the reproduction layer from having a degraded characteristic.
