ABSTRACT:
In a record medium wherein information is recorded and/or erased by changing the optical state thermally by the irradiation with a laser beam or the like, a protection layer made from a material having a larger thermal conductivity than adjacent protection layers is used to decrease the temperature difference between the center and edges of a record mark on recording and/or erasing with a laser beam. By using the material having a larger thermal conductivity, the heat due to the irradiation with a laser beam or the like is diffused not only to the periphery of the substrate, but also to the plane of the substrate surely. Therefore, the temperature difference between the center and the edges in a mark on irradiation with the laser beam is decreased, and the recording/erasing characteristics and the power margin for erasing can be improved.
