本発明は光記録用の光記録媒体および光記録方式に関す

ている。(Prior art and problems) There are various methods for recording information by focusing a laser beam onto a minute spot using a condensing lens and irradiating it onto two surfaces of a recording medium to form holes on the surface of the recording medium. Proposed.

2)。-However, in the recording method based on the presence or absence of holes, the density within the plane of the medium is determined by the diameter of the beam spot irradiated onto the medium, so it is difficult to increase the recording density within the plane without changing the beam spot diameter. Therefore, a method has been proposed to increase the recording capacity by overlapping the recording layers in the thickness direction of the medium (Showa 5).

録および再生を行なっている。FIG. 1 shows a conventional media configuration. The first light absorption layer has a blue color former 1j red color former 52 green color former 7 and a color developer 38 above and below the first #2j third light absorption layer 2ν4#゛7. When irradiated with light, the layer becomes blue, and the second and third light absorbing layers exhibit red and green colors, respectively. Recording and reproduction in each absorption layer is performed by changing the focal position of the beam surplus in the depth direction.

雑になる。また、第3の光吸収層へ光照射を行う場合に
も、第1および第2の光吸収層で吸収が行なわれるため
、照射パワーの損失が大きい。However, in order to distinguish each absorption layer by the difference in the focal depth of the beam spot, it is necessary that the interval between each absorption layer be 10 μm or more. This is because if the distance between the eyebrows becomes closer than this, crosstalk will occur and it will be difficult to reproduce each layer independently. Therefore, it is required to form each layer uniformly with a certain thickness, but it is difficult to form a recording medium with a wide area. The beam spot is also 10 in the depth direction.
It is necessary to move the spot by more than μm, making control of the spot position complicated. Furthermore, even when the third light absorption layer is irradiated with light, absorption occurs in the first and second light absorption layers, resulting in a large loss of irradiation power.

It is characterized by Furthermore, the recording medium of the present invention has a structure in which multiple layers are laminated on a substrate to form holes by light irradiation, and this laminate is made of a material that requires lower light irradiation power for making holes as the upper layer increases. There are characteristics.

Since it is less than μm, there is no need to change the position of the focal point of the beam spot in the depth direction.

かる。FIG. 3 shows a recording medium in which four different recording layers 11 to 14 are stacked on a substrate 9. In this example, holes of different depths can be formed by changing the number of recording layers forming holes. In FIG. 3, since there are four layers, four types of holes with different depths can be formed, so it can be seen that the recording capacity is doubled compared to the case where information is recorded only by the presence or absence of holes.
さらに多層にすれば、原理的にはさらに容量が増加する
。If the number of layers is further increased, the capacity can theoretically be further increased.

異なる深さの穴を形成できることがわかる。低照射パワ
ーでは上側の層のみに、パワーを上けるほど下側の層ま
で穴が形成されることになる。It can be seen that in a multilayer medium, by lowering the minimum light irradiation power required for hole formation in the upper layers, holes of different depths can be formed by changing the irradiation power. At low irradiation power, holes are formed only in the upper layer, and as the power is increased, holes are formed in the lower layer.

い穴の深さであれば反射光量の異いて深さを検出できる
ことになる。The depth of the hole can be detected by changing the amount of reflected light. Due to the interference effect of reflected light from the inside and outside of the hole, the amount of light changes as shown in FIG. 4 with respect to the depth of the hole. The minimum amount of light is reached at a depth of 1/4 of the wavelength. Therefore, if the depth of the hole is shallower than this, the depth can be detected by varying the amount of reflected light.

It is possible to use a material in which a metal such as the following is dispersed and formed on a substrate by vapor deposition or the like. The depth of the hole can be changed by changing the light irradiation power between 1 and 10 mW.
