BACKGROUND TECHNOLOGY AND PROBLEMS Optical video discs, digital audio discs, etc. have already been put into practical use, but with these types of discs, general users can only read the information recorded on the discs. The usage pattern is as follows. Although various recordable information recording media on which general users can write arbitrary information on the medium, such as a disk, have been proposed, they have not yet become widespread.

Recordable information recording media that have been proposed so far include:
For example, as the recording material layer, a thin low melting point metal film,
For example, it is made of bismuth Bi and tellurium Te, and is irradiated with a laser beam in accordance with an information signal to melt it, and in the melted part, a recording pit is formed as a mechanical shape change such as a through hole or a recessed part. and record that information. However, in a recording mode that forms such a shaped recording bit, a large /4' power is required for writing in order to melt the recording layer, and in this way, for example, the recording pits formed by melting are Since the shape is difficult to control, the noise level is high, and the resolution is low, making it difficult to perform high-density recording.

In contrast, the present applicant has previously proposed an information recording medium in which this information recording is performed by changing optical characteristics.

However, in any of these information recording media, during writing, not only changes in optical properties but also mechanical deformation may occur in the recording layer, resulting in a decrease in S/N. Although changes in the optical properties of the recording layers (2) and (5), that is, Sb 2S e a and Sb 2 Te 3, respectively, can be obtained at temperatures above 160°C and above 60°C, in practice, writing laser beams such as semiconductor laser beams When irradiated with irradiation, the center of each optical recording bit is briefly heated to a high temperature, which melts the recording layer or the reflective layer or antireflection layer laminated thereon, causing a mechanical shape change. It was found that this is due to the following. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly set the power of the writing light for this type of information recording medium, such as the power of semiconductor laser light, so that such shape changes do not occur, and general users There are some difficulties when using it as a popular video disc or digital audio disc.

An antireflection layer (4) consisting of 3 is deposited by vapor deposition or the like,
On top of this, a recording layer (5) made of Sb 2 Te 3 having a thickness of 400×, for example, is deposited by vapor deposition, and furthermore, in the present invention, a protective film (deposited) as described in the example of FIG. 3 is deposited on top of this.

In addition, the protective film is not limited to the above-mentioned high melting point metal layer, but a high melting point resin film can also be used. It is possible to use a protective film made by mixing a pigment with a high level of absorption, such as an infrared absorber.When using a resin protective film mixed with a pigment in this way, it has the effect of reducing noise caused by reflection from the surface of the protective film. That is, when a protective film is generally formed using a resin film, it is usually done using a spinner method, and the surface thereof is relatively jagged, which causes the reflection of writing and reading light from the surface of the protective film. Therefore, in this case, it is necessary to make the thickness of the protective film sufficiently large so as not to be affected by the optical reflection on the surface. When a dye is mixed in, it is possible to effectively avoid noise caused by reflected light without increasing the thickness, thereby avoiding inconveniences such as peeling that would otherwise be caused by making this protective film thicker. .
