By the way, as an optical disc capable of erasing an information signal once recorded, a reversible recording film is directly formed on a plastic substrate having a track guide groove is conventionally known. When erasing, the film temperature rises to about 100 to 300 degrees Celsius, which causes a thermal shape change on the plastic substrate, which causes deterioration of the quality of the information signal. There was a problem.

Therefore, in order to solve this problem, a method of interposing a heat-resistant inorganic material layer between the plastic substrate and the reversible recording film to prevent thermal shape change of the plastic substrate has been devised. However, due to the difference in linear expansion coefficient between the plastic substrate and the inorganic layer, internal stress is generated due to temperature change, and as a result, cracks and wrinkles occur in the heat resistant inorganic layer and plastic.

Further, since many of the substances constituting the reversible recording film are relatively easily oxidized, there is a problem that the characteristics of the recording film are deteriorated when excess oxygen exists in the vicinity of the recording film.
