Abstract
In the near future, the magneto-optical (MO) recording will require materials having high MO effects at short wavelengths (400-500 nm). Ferrites, especially garnets, but also spinel ferrites have highly advantageous MO properties in this spectrum and also have very stable structural and chemical properties. The present paper evaluates their used as MO media, in comparison with the rare-earth transition metals alloys and the metallic multilayers.
