An optical recording medium includes a substrate, a protective layer, a first recording layer containing an element selected from a group consisting of Si, Ge, Sn, Mg, In, Zn, Bi and Al as a primary component, and a second recording layer located in the vicinity of the first recording layer and containing Cu as a primary component. When the optical recording medium is irradiated with a laser beam, the element contained in the first recording layer as a primary component and the element contained in the second recording layer as a primary component are mixed by the laser beam and a region whose reflection coefficient has been changed is formed, whereby information is recorded. |
