<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that multivalue recording of two or more bits in each layer is not achieved yet although the conventional recording layer is multilayer, and there is a limit in increasing recording density, and to provide a recording medium achieving the multivalue recording of two or more bits in each recording layer. <P>SOLUTION: In the multilayer multivalue recording type optical recording medium, a set of multilayer recording layers are constituted of an optical phase change recording material allowing the multivalue recording of two or more bits according to differences in reflectance or transmittance; a reflective layer, a heat diffusion adjustment layer, a filter layer, a polarizing layer, or a protective layer for reducing laser intensity reaching deeper layers and controlling atomic diffusion or heat conduction is provided between respective recording layers. Recording of the plurality of recording layers is controlled according to laser intensity, deflection direction, or color. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
