Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An optical information recording medium 10 includes a plurality of recording layers 14 , and intermediate layers 15 each provided between the recording layers 14 . The optical information recording medium 10 is configured such that first and second intermediate layers 15 A, 15 B having different refractive indices are arranged alternately with one recording layer 14 interposed therebetween, that ((n3−n1)/(n3+n1)) 2 ≦0.001 is satisfied, where n1 represents a refractive index of the recording layer 14 , and n3 represents a refractive index of the second intermediate layer 15 B, and that when a recording layer 14 is irradiated with a recording beam RB and generates heat by absorption of the recording beam RB, an interface (reflection interface 18 A) between the recording layer 14 and the first intermediate layer 15 A adjacent to this recording layer 14 undergoes a change of shape to record information (recording spot M).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An optical information recording medium comprising: a plurality of recording layers; and intermediate layers each provided between the recording layers, wherein first and second intermediate layers having different refractive indices are arranged alternately with one recording layer interposed therebetween, wherein ((n3−n1)/(n3+n1)) 2 ≦0.001 is satisfied, where n1 represents a refractive index of the recording layer, and n3 represents a refra…
