Abstract

In the method of manufacturing an optical recording medium according to the present invention, when an optical recording medium having at least first and second minute concave and convex surfaces formed thereon is manufactured, the first and second minute concave and convex surfaces are simultaneously molded on both surfaces of a substrate of the optical recording medium. Therefore, it is possible to manufacture a multilayer optical recording medium having an excellent symmetrical structure with respect to a vertical cross section direction of the substrate, i.e., in the thickness direction of the optical recording medium. Moreover, it is possible to effectively suppress the deformation thereof resulting from curing or shrinkage of an light curing resin or the like, absorption or removal of vapor in the air into or from a substrate, a transparent intermediate film or the like, and so on.
