ABSTRACT:
A phase-change optical recording medium capable of performing recording and reproduction at a high speed is provided, in which a reproduced signal output is not only sufficiently large but the phase-change optical recording medium also has excellent repeated rewriting performance. An interface layer3, which is composed of a Ge—Si—N-based material, is formed on at least a surface of one side of a recording layer4of the phase-change optical recording medium10. Accordingly, even when a phase-change material having a high melting point, for example, a Bi—Ge—Te-based phase-change material is used for the recording layer4, it is possible to provide the phase-change optical recording medium in which the reproduced signal output is sufficiently large and the repeated rewriting performance is excellent.
