OPTICAL RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

To provide an optical recording medium exhibiting favorable write/read characteristics in high-speed recording. In an optical recording medium including a reflective layer, a dye-containing recording layer, and a transparent resin layer on a substrate in this order, a barrier layer is disposed between the recording layer and the resin layer, where the barrier layer comprises a material having a bulk thermal conductivity M of 70 W/m·K or more at 300 K and has a thickness t less than 5 nm.
