Abstract

Disclosed is a crystalline magnetic film having at least two rare-earth elements symmetrically disposed at lattice sites in the film's interior to there produce a magnetic moment perpendicular to the film's surface; and having those same rare-earth elements less symmetrically disposed at lattice sites in a region at the film's surface, to there produce a magnetic moment parallel to the surface. This in-plane magnetic moment resists hard bubbles from forming in the film; and it is stable at temperatures over 500.degree. C.
