Abstract
In a magneto-optical file memory wherein a storage medium having a vertical magnetic film is irradiated with a laser beam to reverse a magnetization direction of the magnetic film, thereby to write and/or erase information, and a rotation of polarizable face of reflected light from the storage medium is detected, thereby to reproduce information; a magneto-optical file memory wherein a sense of a leakage magnetic field of an actuator which controls an optical system for condensing the laser beam on the storage medium is set to be the same as a sense of initial magnetization of the magnetic film of the storage medium.
