Abstract

A magneto-optical recording medium having a stack of magnetic layers which include at least one rare earth element and at least one transition metal element. At least one of the magnetic layers contain fluorine with an atomic concentration less than 1%. A process for producing a magneto-optical recording medium including magnetic layers. The process includes a step of controlling the Curie temperatures of the magnetic layers by controlling a fluorine atomic concentration of the magnetic layers.
