Abstract
An optical information recording medium of this invention includes a substrate, a light incident surface, a first reflecting layer formed between the substrate and the light incident surface, a second reflecting layer formed between the first reflecting layer and the light incident surface and stacked on the first reflecting layer, the second reflecting layer being made of the same material as that of the first reflecting layer, and a phase change optical recording layer formed between the second reflecting layer and the light incident surface, the phase change optical recording layer transiting between a crystal state and an amorphous state when irradiated with a light beam.
