<p>A magneto-optical recording medium with wide operating margins is disclosed. The magneto-optical recording medium includes a vertical magnetic films of exchange-coupled liminated structure composed of a first magnetic layer (2) with a high coercive force HH and a low Curie temperature TL and a second magnetic layer (3) with a lower coercive force HL and a higher Curie temperature TH in comparison with those of the first magnetic layer. The first magnetic layer has a gradient of the Curie temperature along the direction of thickness of the layer so that the Curie temperature is higher at a position closer to the second magnetic layer. The recording method utilizing this recording medium is also disclosed.</p> |
