Abstract

PURPOSE:To execute optical recording with high sensitivity, by generating foams under a supporting layer of a recording layer, varying an optical constant of the recording layer of a part on the foams, and executing the recording. CONSTITUTION:A reflecting film (30nm in thickness) 2 of Al, a polymer film (200nm) 3 and a supporting layer (10nm) 4 consisting of Ti are laminated successively on a polymethyl methacrylate substrate 1. Subsequently, an Ar gas laser beam of 514nm wavelength is converged and irradiated, the supporting layer 4 is peeled off from the transmitting layer 3, and a foam 5 whose maximum gap length is about 200nm is formed. A recording layer (35nm) 6 consisting of a lower oxide of tellurium is stuck onto the supporting layer 4. A semiconductor laser beam 7 of 830nm wavelength is converged and irradiated to a part of the recording layer 6 on the foams 5, a blackened (an optical constant is varied) part 20 is formed and recording is executed. Outflow of heat from the recording layer 6 and the supporting layer 4 is obstructed by the foams 5, therefore, the sensitivity becomes high.

Conventionally, in optical discs, information is written by irradiating the recording layer on the substrate with a focused laser beam and changing the optical constants of the recording layer using thermal energy converted from the optical energy absorbed in the recording layer. . Information is read by irradiating a low-power laser beam and changing the amount of reflected light. In order to miniaturize and lower the cost of such optical recording devices, it is strongly desired to use a semiconductor laser as a recording laser. However, a desirable recording medium and recording method have not yet been developed to provide a high-sensitivity recording medium and recording method that can be written at a sufficiently high speed.Media sensitivity depends on the thermal characteristics of the substrate that supports the medium. Therefore, a substrate with low thermal conductivity is used.However, the heat fik flowing to the substrate is large, and this is the main reason for reducing the sensitivity of the medium.

The present invention relates to an optical recording system that performs optical recording by changing the optical constants of a recording layer by irradiating a convergent Rayleigh beam. A bubble is present between a second layer directly above the first layer and below the recording layer, and recording is performed by changing the optical constants of the recording layer in the area above the bubble. That is.

After that, the support layer 4 is peeled off from the transparent layer 3 by convergent irradiation with an argon gas laser beam (not shown) having a wavelength of 514 nm, and the maximum gap length is approximately 20 nm.
A bubble 5 of 0-Am was formed. Next, a 35x thick tellurium low oxide (Tea, . A semiconductor laser beam 7 having a wavelength of 830y<m was convergently irradiated onto the portion above the bubble 5 of such a recording medium to form a blackened portion 20 (with a change in optical constant) as shown in FIG. The laser power required at this time was as follows:
This was less than half the laser power required to record on a recording medium in which 5'rXm thick 'reo□' films were sequentially laminated. The main reason for this high recording sensitivity is that the presence of air bubbles under the support layer of the recording layer prevents heat from flowing out from the recording layer and the support layer.
