Abstract: A stamper is mounted to a surface of at least one of a stationary-side die and a movable-side die. A transfer surface of the stamper is positioned substantially flush with a first surface of an inner peripheral holding member for holding the stamper near an inner periphery thereof which first surface is positioned adjacent to the transfer surface of the stamper.

Abstract: An optical information recording medium that has satisfactory main information recording characteristics and in which burst cutting area (BCA) marks can be formed without damaging a protective layer or a light-transmitting layer is provided. In forming the light-reflecting layer by vapor deposition, sputtering, ion-plating, or the like, part of the region is masked so as to make the thickness and/or material of the light-reflecting layer in a main information recording region where main information is recorded different from that of the light-reflecting layer in a BCA equivalent region. As a result, burst cutting of the light-reflecting layer in the BCA equivalent region becomes easier than in the main information recording region.
