A magneto-optical disk according to the present invention has a substrate, a recording layer formed on the substrate and an outer layer formed on the recording layer, above which a floating head is hovered. The outer layer is constituted of a protective layer, an antisticking layer for head, having a texture formed on its surface and other layers. The magneto-optical disk is designed such that, when rotated at a constant angular velocity, the thickness of the outer layer is substantially inversely proportional to a radial position r on the magneto-optical disk raised to the 1/2nd power. In the formation of the outer layer, a screen whose meshes become gradually finer from the innermost portion toward the circumferential portion of the magneto-optical disk is employed based on the screen printing-technique. Further, photo hardening resin is used as the outer layer, and simply by changing a wavelength or irradiation amount of light to be applied thereto, a texture is readily formed on the surface of the outer layer. By the use of the present invention, stable recording, erasing and re-writing operations are achieved, and it becomes possible to prevent the floating head from sticking to the magneto-optical disk and reduce the cost thereof.
