Laser recording apparatus for vaporizing colder dye across a gap, and recording method thereof

摘要

The recording apparatus of the present invention comprises a recording part in which a layer of a heat-fusible recording material is formed opposite a recording medium with a gap between, the recording part being so constructed as to selectively heat said heat-fusible recording material, thereby vaporizing or ablating it, and transfer the vapor to the recording medium through the gap, the recording material containing a heat energy absorber which promotes the heating of the recording material.
