<p>An information recording medium which includes a light-transmitting substrate, a recording layer formed on the substrate, the recording layer having the characteristic of changing an optical characteristic upon heating thereof, together with a protective layer having light-absorbing properties disposed over the recording layer and arranged to absorb light passing through the recording layer upon recording, in combination with a planar layer superimposed on the protective layer and capable of suppressing mechanical deformation of the recording layer.</p> |
