Optical recording medium and process for production thereof

摘要

In an optical recording medium, a recording layer is formed by coating a substrate with a solution of coloring matter comprising a coloring matter dissolved in a solvent comprising a mixture of cyclooctane and at least one hydrocarbon having 6 to 9 carbon atoms other than cyclooctane. The obtained optical recording medium enables suppressing the leakage of land prepit signal for address information into RF signal for recorded data at the time of recorded data reproduction, thereby attaining a lowering of error rate.
