ある。A typical example of this is a high-density digital recording material such as an optical disk, but apart from this, a flexible optical card material has recently been proposed as a material that can be handled more easily. As an example of this, JP-A-59-502139
The optical card developed by Drexler Corporation, which is described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 58-188346, is famous.

であった。For example, it has been pointed out that materials that are highly sensitive to laser light sources do not necessarily have good storage stability and are susceptible to deterioration under high humidity conditions, or that they are gradually oxidized by oxygen in the air, resulting in a decrease in sensitivity. It has been updated in terms of credibility.

。In addition, for optical cards and optical tapes, which are expected to be used under more severe bending conditions than optical disks, new materials have been desired since conventional metal YI film materials may crack. The Drexler Company has already proposed the use of a silver thin film material obtained by developing a wet silver halide photographic material under special development conditions in optical cards.

Very common industrial production means can be selected, such as continuous coating with a hot roller, continuous heating with a hot roll, or a suitable preformat can be provided as required by pattern exposure through a mask. This is an extremely important issue in reducing the cost of recording materials.
また、金属銀含有層として実質的に単純な一種類の層に
できることは製造上極めて有用なことである。Furthermore, it is extremely useful for manufacturing that the metal silver-containing layer can be formed into a substantially simple layer of one type.

記録材料を見出し、本発明を完成させたものである。A photosensitive material using an organic silver salt oxidizing agent as an image forming material is known as a heat-developable silver salt photographic film.
The present inventors discovered a completely new optical recording material based on this basic composition and completed the present invention.

機銀塩含有層自体は銀イオン供給後、実質的に透明層の
まま存在することができる。In particular, a metallic silver layer is formed using development nuclei as catalyst nuclei only when silver or metal development nuclei nobler than silver are present under conditions that cannot be reduced by mere thermal development with an organic silver salt oxidizing agent and a reducing agent. This is how it was done. Organic silver salt oxidizing agents can be used to produce blackening (formation of silver particles) during heating, similar to the heat development of so-called heat-developable silver salt photographic films, by containing an appropriate reducing agent in the system and using appropriate development conditions. ), and the internal organic silver salt oxidizing agent can diffuse to the surface to form a reflective metal thin film layer on the surface, which is completely novel. Therefore, the organic silver salt-containing layer itself can remain as a substantially transparent layer after silver ions are supplied.
このような本発明の新規な光学記録材料は、以下のよう

ある。Such a novel optical recording material of the present invention can be defined as follows. That is, the reflectance of the metallic silver-containing layer obtained by reacting the silver ions supplied from the silver salt oxidizing agent with the reducing agent in the presence of metal development nuclei nobler than silver is 10 to 90. % in optical recording materials.

連Vt層として取り扱える金属vA層であることが好ま
しい。In this case, the reflective metallic silver-containing layer and the substantially transparent organic silver salt-supplying layer in this optical recording material may or may not have sharp boundaries. It's not important. However, in order to improve the recording density as an optical recording material, metallic silver must be uniformly dispersed as a dispersion that is infinitesimal in size than at least 2 to 3 microns, or it must be present in a uniform continuous state in the order of 2 to 3 microns. Preferably, it is a metal vA layer that can be treated as a Vt layer.

、全体の厚さで1〜20μ程度に設定される。Regarding the thickness of the recording layer itself including the organic silver salt oxidizing agent of this optical recording material, as long as a difference in reflectance can be obtained, the thinner the thickness, the better from the viewpoint of improving the recording density. The thickness is set to about 1 to 20 μm.

Suitable heating conditions include 90~
It takes about 2 to 30 seconds at 140°C. These development conditions must be controlled to optimal conditions in order to satisfy the constitution of the present invention.
特に、現像が過多になると有機銀塩含有層にも不必要な
根粒子が形成されたり、反射性の銀金域含有層が不均一
になりやすいため注意しなければならない。In particular, care must be taken because excessive development tends to cause unnecessary root particles to be formed in the organic silver salt-containing layer and to cause the reflective silver-gold region-containing layer to become non-uniform.

It is also possible to form a trace amount of metal development nuclei on the surface under gas phase conditions.

It can also be substituted by covering the surface with a silver salt oxidizing agent layer.
また、表面層に硫化ソーダのごとき硫化銀核を形成する

For example, for the purpose of controlling the silver-gold area to a predetermined size, a toning agent such as phthalazine, which is used in dry silver salt photographic films, an antifogging agent, and a sensitizer can be added.

It was also found that pre-formatting can be easily performed using the following method. Such a change in composition can be achieved by applying a halogen ion source to a part of the organic silver salt oxidizing agent and converting a part of the organic silver salt oxidizing agent into photosensitive silver halide in advance, or by preparing a separate silver halide. There is a method of dispersing the deposited silver halide microcrystals in a coating solution containing an organic silver salt oxidizing agent.
