ABSTRACT:
An optical information recording medium includes a transparent substrate, a first protection film, a recording film, a second protection film, a dielectric film, and a dielectric reflective film. The first protection film is formed on the transparent substrate. The recording film is formed on the first protection film to record and erase information by causing a reversible phase change between a crystalline state and an amorphous state upon being irradiated with a laser beam, and reproduce recorded information by detecting a change in optical nature accompanying the phase change in the recording film. The second protection film is formed on the recording film to protect the recording film together with the first protection film. The dielectric film is formed on the second protection film and has a refractive index lower than a refractive index of the transparent substrate. The dielectric reflective film is formed on the dielectric film and has a refractive index higher than the refractive index of the transparent substrate.
