Abstract: [Object] To enable stable void recording to be performed with lower power than in a case where a conventional void recording method that records hole marks (voids) in a bulk layer is adopted. [Solving Means] First laser light is irradiated onto an optical recording medium in which a plurality of resin layers are formed while the first laser light is focused on a boundary surface of the resin layers, to thus record hole marks onto the boundary surface. Since a recording sensitivity of the hole marks is enhanced at the boundary surface of the resin layers, by recording hole marks onto the boundary surface as described above, laser power requisite for recording can be suppressed as compared to the conventional art. As a result, it becomes unnecessary to use a special laser such as a short-pulse laser, and even if a CW laser (CW: Continuous Wave) is used, a recording speed does not need to be sacrificed.

Abstract: The present invention can record or reproduce information in a stable manner with a simple configuration. According to the present invention, since a photoinitiator whose vaporization temperature is between 140 and 400 deg C. is included, a portion around a focal point Fb of a recording optical beam L2c heats up after the recording optical beam L2c is focused, vaporizing the photoinitiator. As a result, an air bubble is formed. This air bubble is left in a recording layer 101 as a cavity after the emission of the recording optical beam L2c ends and the portion around the focal point Fb cools down. When a reading optical beam L2d is emitted, the air bubble can reflect the reading optical beam L2d due to the difference in refractive index between a portion inside the air bubble and the portion outside the air bubble (i.e. the recording layer 101), producing a returning optical beam L3.
