- This recording auxiliary layer has a peak of 40% spectral reflectance at a wavelength of 6555 nm.
- the spectral reflectance and the spectral absorptance were obtained by forming each layer having the above-mentioned thickness on a glass substrate and measuring it in advance.
- this recording auxiliary layer a 70 nm-thick reflective layer made of an Ag sputtered film and a 5 ⁇ m-thick protective layer made of an ultraviolet-curable acryl resin were provided to produce an optical recording medium.
- Example 2 the lamination order of the recording layer and the recording auxiliary layer in Example 1 was reversed, and after the merocyanine compound of the formula (Formula 2) as the recording auxiliary layer was deposited, the recording layer (Formula 1) was formed.
- An optical recording medium was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the phthalocyanine compound was vapor-deposited.
- Comparative Example 1 an optical recording medium was produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the recording auxiliary layer was omitted, and used as a comparative sample.
- Comparative Example 2 was the same as Example 1 except that the recording layer was omitted. Thus, an optical recording medium was prepared and used as a comparative sample.
- the optical recording medium fabricated as described above was used for a Pulstec Industrial optical disk evaluation device (DDU-1000) equipped with a 78-nm wavelength semiconductor laser and a Pulstec Industrial optical disk equipped with a 650 nm wavelength semiconductor laser.
- DDU-1000 Pulstec Industrial optical disk evaluation device
- EFM eight to fourteen modulation
- the DVD playback status was evaluated as ⁇ if the DVD was played by each DVD player, and X if the DVD was unplayable or unstable.
- the graph of FIG. 2 is obtained by measuring the spectroscopic reflectance in an unrecorded portion of the optical recording medium manufactured in Example 1 through a substrate.
- the graph in FIG. 3 shows that the optical recording medium manufactured in Example 1 was recorded with one laser beam having a wavelength of 780 nm. The spectral reflectance at the portion was measured through the substrate.
- the spectral reflectance of the optical recording medium is also close to the wavelength 2 (655 nm) due to the effect of the recording auxiliary layer having a spectral reflectance beak near the wavelength 2 (655 nm). At 650 nm).
- the spectral reflectance near the peak can be significantly reduced by recording with a single laser beam, and compatibility between CD players and DVD players is obtained.
- recording became possible even with one laser beam of wavelength 2 (65 ⁇ ).
- the jitter of the reproduced signal could be reduced, and by providing the recording film on the substrate side of the recording auxiliary layer, the jitter could be further reduced.
- the spectral reflectance in the vicinity of this peak can be significantly reduced by recording with one of the laser beams of either person 1 or 2 so that the wavelength from 770 nm to 830 nm can be selected. 1, and wavelength 6
