Abstract

PURPOSE:To make possible the optical recording with large capacity by laminating alternately 2 kinds of recording layers having different absorption wavelengths. CONSTITUTION:Two kinds of the recording layers 10, 11 having respective absorption wavelengths lambda1, lambda2 are laminated on a substrate 9 with a recording layer 12 of a low m.p. having less light absorptivity inserted therebetween. The recording by the holes having different depths is executed by the irradiation of the light spot having the wavelength lambda1, the irradiation of the light spot having the wavelength lambda2 after the irradiation of the light spot having the wavelength lambda1 or the subsequent irradiation of the light spot having the wavelength lambda1, etc., by which the recording with the large capacity is made possible.

Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to an optical recording medium. (Prior Art and Problems) A laser beam is condensed into a minute spot by a condensing lens and recorded. Various methods have been proposed for recording information by irradiating the medium surface and forming holes on the recording medium surface. However, in the recording method based on the presence or absence of holes, the density within the medium plane is It is difficult to increase the recording density within a 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).

The third light absorption layer exhibits red and green colors, respectively.

Recording and reproduction in each absorption layer is performed by changing the focal position of the beam spot in the depth direction. However, in order to distinguish each absorption layer by the difference in the focal depth of the beam spot, it is necessary to change the distance between each absorption layer. is required to be 10 μm or more. This means that if the distance between the eyebrows is closer than this,
This is because crosstalk occurs and it becomes difficult to reproduce each layer independently.

Therefore, it is necessary to form each layer with a uniform thickness, but is it difficult to form a recording medium with a wide area?
o The beam spot also needs to be moved by 10 μm or more in the depth direction, making control of the spot position complicated. When irradiating light to the third light absorption layer,
Since light absorption in the upper layer is unavoidable, power loss is large.

(Object of the Invention) The object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks and to propose a recording medium that can have a recording capacity of a gold layer. (Configuration of the Invention) The optical recording medium of the present invention has It has a γΦ overall structure in which first and second type recording layers that absorb different wavelengths are alternately laminated. Another optical recording medium has a structure in which a low-melting-point recording layer with little light absorption is sandwiched between the recording layers.

When removing only a layer, the light of λ is applied, and when removing two layers, the light of λ is applied and then the light of λ is applied.

All you have to do is irradiate it with light. In this way, by alternately irradiating λ and λ2 light, holes with different depths can be formed sequentially.However, with this configuration, even when λ1 light is irradiated, heat conduction is not possible. Since there is a possibility that the hole may expand to the second type recording layer, it is necessary to limit the light irradiation time and power.

In FIG. 3, a recording layer 7 having low light absorption but a low melting point is provided between the first type and second type recording layers. When a hole is formed in the first type and second ftM recording layer, this recording layer is also removed at the same time. In the example shown in Figure 2, four different depths of holes can be formed, so the recording capacity depends on whether there is a hole or not. It can be seen that the capacity increases by 1.5 times compared to the case where information is recorded only in 0 layers.In principle, the capacity can further increase if more layers are added.

The depth of the hole changes because detection is done by changing the amount of reflected light. A phthalocyanine-based material can be used as a recording medium having a minimum light intensity at a depth of 1/4 of the wavelength (Example). For example, if vanadyl 7-talocyanine (Vopc) is used as the first step and 7-talocyanine plu (cuPc) ft is used as the second step, λI=8300X and λ=6300Xt can be used as absorption wavelengths. Polystyrene can be used as the layer provided between the absorbent layers. If the depth of each layer is set to 2 sool, it is possible to form y'C in each of the first type and second type recording layer with a light irradiation power of about 2 to 6 mW (effect of the invention). It is also possible to realize high-capacity optical recording using conventional optical recording.
