When magnetically transferring information represented by a pattern of magnetic layer formed on a master information carrier to a disc-like slave medium, an initial DC magnetic field is applied to the slave medium to initially magnetize the slave medium in one direction of concentric recording tracks and a transfer magnetic field is applied to the slave medium in the direction opposite to the direction of the initial-magnetization with the initially-magnetized slave medium held in close contact with the master information carrier. At least one of applying the initial DC magnetic field and applying the transfer magnetic field is effected by applying the magnetic field while the slave medium is being rotated relatively to the magnetic field and stopping the rotation of the slave medium after the intensity of the magnetic field is gradually reduced to not stronger than a predetermined value.

In an information recording method of the present invention by carrying out recording data while carrying out tracking servo accurately, high density recording of signals at a good S/N can be carried out, and high density recording by a vertical magnetic recording system can be carried out. A magnetic disk comprises a magnetic recording layer, and the magnetic recording layer is magnetized in advance such that magnetized regions A and B having different magnetization directions are formed. At a time of recording data, vertical magnetic recording is carried out by a magnetic head while carrying out accurate tracking servo by optically tracking by a magneto-optical effect utilizing a difference in the magnetization directions of the magnetized regions A and B. Therefore, high-density recording at a good S/N is possible.

A master information carrier for magnetic transfer bears uneven signal patterns on its surface. When the minimum bit length in the uneven signal patterns is Bmin, dummy uneven patterns are provided in a depression of the uneven signal patterns, which has a length of 4Bmin or longer in the direction along a track. When magnetic transfer is performed, magnetized patterns corresponding to the dummy uneven patterns are transferred onto a slave medium. The magnetized patterns are patterns which will not be recognized as reproduction signals at a drive, into which the slave medium after magnetic transfer will be loaded.
