A conventional information recording carrier of this type will be explained with reference to FIG. Although the information reproducing mechanism is also simply shown in the figure, a light beam 2 emitted from a light source 1 is reflected by a half mirror 3 and is incident on an information recording carrier 4. The information record carrier 4 is shown in cross-section. The information recording carrier 4 is composed of a transparent part 5 and a reflective film 6 which is a part with high reflectance.The transparent part 5 which is a light-transmitting substrate is made of, for example, plastic, and the light beam 2 The entrance surface 7a of the transparent portion 5 is flat, and the other surface 7b has information grooves 8, usually called pits, carved therein.
The reflective film 6, which is a portion with high reflectance, is a metal film or the like, and the light beam 2 hitting the information groove 8 is reflected,
The light passes through the harm mirror 3 and enters the photodetector 9. The information contained in the information groove 8 is extracted by the photodetector 9 as an electrical signal.

The metal used for the reflective film 6 is, for example, aluminum or silver, and is deposited by vapor deposition or electroless plating using a silver mirror reaction, and its thickness is as follows:
It is about 1000 Å to 2000 Å.

Since the conventional information recording carrier 4 is constructed as described above, the adhesive force of the reflective film 6 is weak, and therefore the mechanical strength is weak, so it is necessary to prevent it from coming into contact with the reflective film 6, and it is difficult to handle it. This required extreme caution. In addition, since the reflective film 6 is a thin film, oxidation progresses from the surface exposed to the air.
Since the metal oxidation reaches the reflective surface of the light beam 2, it has the disadvantage that it cannot be stored for a long time.

This invention was made to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional ones as described above, and by attaching a protective film made of nickel or chromium to the reflective film 6, the mechanical strength can be strengthened.
The object of the present invention is to provide an optical information recording carrier that is easy to handle and can be stored for a long period of time.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 2 shows a sectional view of an optical information recording carrier 10 according to the present invention, and in the figure, the information recording carrier 10 according to the present invention includes a transparent portion 5, a reflective film 6, and a structure disposed on the reflective film 6. protective film 11
It is made up of. The structures of the transparent portion 5 and the reflective film 6 are the same as those of the conventional one. The protective film 11 may be made of, for example, nickel or chromium, and is formed by depositing the metal of the reflective film 6 as an electrode by electrolytic plating. The thickness of this reflective film 6 is
For example, it is relatively thick, 1 μm to 10 μm. The metal constituting this protective film 11 is relatively chemically stable and hard.

In this way, by electrolytically plating the protective film 11 of hard metal such as nickel or chromium to a sufficiently thick thickness, the reflective film 6 becomes resistant to mechanical contact, and the information recording carrier 10 becomes easy to handle. . Furthermore, since the reflective film 6 is shielded from air, there is no risk of oxidation, and long-term storage is possible. Furthermore, by selecting a metal with stable chemical properties such as nickel or chromium for the protective film 11 and making the metal sufficiently thick, oxidation from the surface of the protective film 11 will not reach the reflective film 6. It is possible to eliminate this problem and has practical effects.

In the above embodiments, the reflective film is made of aluminum or silver, but the reflective film is not limited to this, and the thickness of the reflective film is not limited to 1000 Å to 2000 Å. No matter what type of reflective film the information recording carrier has, the same effect can be obtained by attaching a relatively chemically stable, hard metal as a protective film.
