PURPOSE:To obtain the rewritable optical recording medium having a long recording life by laminating mixed films composed of a specific photochromic compd. and long chain fatty acid or long chain alcohol or long chain ester to a Z shape. CONSTITUTION:The optical recording medium is obtd. by using the photochromic compd. expressed by formula I and accumulating the mixed films composed of said compd. and the long chain fatty acid or long chain alcohol or long chain ester as LB films of the Z type in which all the hydrophilic groups face the direction of the substrate. In formula I, R is C=1 to C=31 hydrocarbon. The formation of the J associated body is facilitated and the reproducibility of the associated body formation is improved by accumulating the mixed film composed of the photochromic compd. and the long chain fatty acid or long chain alcohol or long chain ester to the Z type in case of forming the LB films in such a manner. The stability of the colored body is improved in this way.

2. Description of the Related Art Photochromic materials have been known as materials that can reversibly change color when exposed to two types of light sources with different wavelengths. Spiropyran is a typical example. Although an optical recording medium based on binary storage has been proposed by utilizing these reversibilities (Tokuma No. 61-205187), no examples have been put into practical use.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In order to utilize a photochromic material as an optical recording medium, it is necessary to stabilize the colored body. However,
Many photochromic compounds return to their colorless form when the colored form is left in a dark place. Therefore, attempts have been made to extend the life of colored bodies by creating a mixed film of long-chain alcohols, long-chain fatty acids, or long-chain esters and photochromic compounds, and converting the photochromic compounds from the colored bodies to J-aggregates.
