Optical recording medium, process for manufacturing the same, sputtering target for manufacturing the same, and optical recording process using the same

摘要

An optical recording medium which comprises a substrate and a recording layer disposed on the substrate, in which the recording layer comprises Ga and Sb, a content of the Sb is 80 atm % to 95 atm % relative to a total content of the Ga and the Sb in the recording layer, and recording and erasing are carried out by a reversible phase change between an amorphous phase and a crystalline phase in the recording layer.
