Optical information recording method

摘要

An optical information recording method in which a digital signal subjected to pulse width modulation is overwritten, by using one laser spot, on an optical disk including a first dielectric film, a recording film, a second dielectric film and a reflecting film stacked on a substrate in this order; the recording film having composition defined by a formula GexSbyTez satisfying 45<=z<=55.5, 0.5<=y/(x+y)<=0.72 and x+y+z=100; the recording film having a thickness of 10 to 35 nm; the second dielectric film having a thickness of 5 to 40 nm; the reflecting film having a thickness of 35 nm or more; the optical information recording method comprising the steps of: converting each of a plurality of pulses contained in the digital signal, into a pulse train composed of pulses; and modulating a laser power between an erasing level and a recording level so as to overwrite the digital signal on the optical disk.
