ABSTRACT:
An optical recording medium having at least a recording film and a protection film disposed on a substrate is disclosed. The optical recording medium includes a plurality of recording tracks being disposed, along a predetermined direction, on a signal recording surface to which a laser beam is incident, the recording tracks having tapered protruding portions, wherein the protruding portions are formed of an optical near field generation film.
