An optical recording medium (20) comprises a substrate (21) having guide grooves, a layer (23) having a light reflective function, a recording layer (22) containing as a main component a coloring matter having the function of absorbing light at a record reproducing light wavelength in an unrecorded state, and a cover layer (24), which is permeable to record reproducing light incident to the recording layer (22), in that order. An intermediate layer (30) containing at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ta, Nb, V, W, Mo, Cr, and Ti is provided between the layer (23) having a light reflective function and the recording layer (22).

Disclosed is an optical recording medium capable of recording/reproducing high-density optical information by using a short wavelength light such as a blue laser. Specifically disclosed is an optical recording medium comprising at least a substrate and a recording layer which is formed on the substrate and capable of recording or reproducing information by irradiation of light. The recording layer contains an azacyanine dye represented by the following general formula ⏧I]. (In the formula, R1 and R2 independently represent a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted linear or branched alkyl group having 1-4 carbon atoms; R3 represents a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group; R4 represents a hydrogen atom or a linear or branched alkyl group having 1-4 carbon atoms, R5 represents an optionally substituted aromatic ring group or an optionally substituted unsaturated heterocyclic group, and R4 and R5 may combine together to form a ring structure; X- represents a counter anion; and the benzene ring A may be substituted.)

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING OPTICAL RECORDING MEDIUM
Disclosed are a method and apparatus for producing an optical recording medium which comprises an intermediate layer having a good corrugated surface and only few defects at low cost. Specifically, a recording layer is formed on a substrate directly or via another layer, and a resin material layer is formed on the recording layer directly or via another layer. Then a stamper, which has a corrugated pattern for transfer corresponding to the corrugated surface to be formed, is placed on the resin material layer, and a bonded body is obtained by curing the resin material layer. After that, the stamper is separated from the resin material layer while heating the bonded body, thereby forming the resin material layer into an intermediate layer having a transferred corrugated pattern.
