A method is provided for manufacturing a magneto-optical memory element having guide grooves for storing information. The method includes applying a laser beam onto a resist film material located on a substrate to produce guide track grooves and address signal pits. Thereafter the resist film is developed. The remaining resist film is removed and a magnetic medium layer is deposited on the substrate.

In an optical head of an optical memory device which records, reproduces or erases information onto or from a recording medium by applying a laser beam to the recording medium, a beam splitter is disposed in an optical path to conduct a portion of the laser beam emitted from a laser device to a light detector. In accordance with a detected value from this light detector, the influence of a stray beam generated in an optical system is removed from a servo error signal.

A magneto-optical head assembly for a reflection type magneto-optical memory apparatus uses a laser beam for recording, retrieving, and erasing data on a recording medium comprised of a vertical, magnetic, and anisotropic thin film. The light beam emitted from the head assembly is guided to a fixed position on said recording medium. Included are a light detection apparatus for receiving a control signal, and a separate light detection apparatus for receiving a data signal. A beam splitter, to which has been applied a multicoated thin film dielectric body capable of increasing the Kerr rotation angle of the laser beam reflected from the recording medium, is positioned in the optical system through which the laser beam passes.

There is disclosed a head assembly for use in a magneto-optic recording/playback system which includes a memory medium having a magnetic coating having a magnetic anisotropy in a vertical direction. A light beam is applied to the memory medium for recording and reproduction of information. The head assembly includes a polarizing prism and a Faraday effect element in an optical path for the light beam. There is needed only the single polarizer.

A magneto-optic memory medium comprises a reflector exhibiting reflectance for light used for information reproduction and a magneto-optic magnetization film disposed on the reflector. When light is applied for information reproduction, the light impinges on the magnetization film and reaches the reflector. The light reflected through the reflector and the magnetization film is of use for information reproduction. In a preferred form of the magneto-optic memory medium, there is deposited on a transparent substrate a magnetic film having an axis of easy magnetization perpendicular to its surface. The magnetization film is overlaid with a reflective coating which is shaped into a strip configuration.

An optical memory disc medium contains a plurality of guide groove tracks. The guide groove tracks are arranged parallel to each other and they are used for controlling a position of a light beam. There is a land region between the guide groove tracks which is wider than the width of the guide groove tracks as measured in the disc-radial direction. Prepits for providing address information for the guide groove tracks are provided. The prepits are formed on the land regions and interposed between the lateral edges in the disc-radial direction of adjacent parallel guide groove tracks. Each prepit has a width which width is a narrower dimension than the width of each guide groove track as measured in the disc-radial direction.
