Abstract

According to one embodiment, a re-recordable write-once optical disc by which recording/reproducing can be properly done with a short-wavelength blue laser is provided. The disc has recording layers on which marks are recorded by the laser power of a modulated short wavelength, with a space formed between the recorded marks. The recording layer of the disc uses an organic dye material by which no physical modification or no physical change substantially occurs in an area of the recorded marks.
