A desired writable optical data recording medium has a transparent substrate 1 where a side wall of a recess is connected to a land surface by a curved surface. A data recording portion of a dye material may be placed only in recesses of a pre-formatted pattern on a transparent substrate, and a reflective layer may be formed on the data recording portion and on the exposed land area between neighboring recesses. The medium can show reflectivity of not less than 65% on reproduction and reduce the cost for manufacturing thereof. |
