PURPOSE:To enable the mass production of an optical recording medium excellent in optical recording characteristics with good reproducibility, by reacting a specific compound containing a desired metal with an active seed in a film forming space almost simultaneously with the evaporation of metal fluoride in the film forming space. CONSTITUTION:A compound, which contains a metal M coming to the component of a formed optical recording layer, represented by RnMn (wherein m and n are respectively equal to the valenices of R and M or positive integers being integer-times said valencies, M is a metal element and R is hydrogen, halogen or a hydrocarbon group) introduced into a film forming space, the exciting seed thereof and an active seed separately introduced apart form said seed chemically perform interaction. Thus formed desired metal M is accumulated on a substrate 7 along with the vapor of metal fluoride almost simultaneously generated in an evaporation source 8. As a result, a desired optical recording layer 4 wherein the metal M is uniformly dispersed in metal fluoride is easily formed on the substrate 7. |
