A digital information recording media which includes a recording layer comprising a light-stable colored composition which composition is mutable or decolorizable upon exposure to a specific wavelength of ultraviolet radiation. The light-stable colored composition includes a colorant and an ultraviolet radiation transorber. The colorant, in the presence of the radiation transorber, is adapted, upon exposure of the transorber to specific, narrow bandwidth ultraviolet radiation, to be mutable. The radiation transorber also imparts light-stability to the colorant so that the colorant does not fade when exposed to sunlight or artificial light. The ultraviolet radiation transorber is adapted to absorb radiation and interact with the colorant to effect the irreversible mutation of the colorant. Especially useful radiation is incoherent, pulsed ultraviolet radiation produced by a dielectric barrier discharge excimer lamp or coherent, pulse radiation produced by an excimer laser. In another embodiment, the colored composition which comprises a colorant and an ultraviolet radiation transorber may also contain a molecular includant having a chemical structure which defines at least one cavity. Each of the colorant and radiation transorber is associated with the molecular includant. In some embodiments, the colorant is at least partially included within a cavity of the molecular includant and the ultraviolet radiation transorber is associated with the molecular includant outside of the cavity. In other embodiments, the radiation transorber is covalently coupled to the molecular includant. |
