Abstract

See full text

A method for reproducing a magneto-optical recording medium the recording pits of which are erased or relieved with rise in temperature of the recording medium caused by radiation of a readout beam, or an optical recording medium the reflectance of which is changed with rise in temperature of the recording medium caused by radiation of the readout beam, in which changes in the size of an effective reproducing region due to the temperature of the magneto-optical or optical recording medium may be inhibited. To this end, a temperature sensor 20 for sensing the temperature of the magneto-optical disc 11, for example, is provided and the laser power or the external magnetic field is controlled depending on the detected temperature by the temperature sensor 20 to maintain a constant size of the effective reproducing region at all times.
