Abstract

In the manufacturing process of recording media by transcribing information signals formed on a stamper onto the substrate, high-quality transcriptions must be achieved without causing any thermal deformations or warps. To this end, when the convexconcaves formed on a main surface of the stamper representing information signals are transcribed onto the substrate, a main surface of said substrate and a main surface of said stamper where the convexconcaves are formed are brought into contact facing each other, and said substrate and said stamper are pressurized with a prescribed pressure as they remain in contact, and in addition the temperature of only the contact surface layer of said substrate with said stamper is raised.
