Optical information recording medium and method of manufacturing the same

摘要

An optical information recording medium having a recording layer for inducing a reversible phase change by irradiation with energy beam. The recording layer contains Te, Ge, Sb, and N, and the concentration of the N being contained is in a range of about 0.1% by atom to about 10% by atom. In this constitution, an excellent repeated recording and erasing performance is obtained.
