An image recording medium includes a first electrode layer permeable to a recording electromagnetic wave carrying thereon image information, and a recording photoconductive layer which contains a-Se as a major component and becomes conductive upon exposure to the recording electromagnetic wave which are superposed one on another in this order with an inhibition layer for inhibiting interfacial crystallization of the recording photoconductive layer intervening between the first electrode layer and the recording photoconductive layer. The inhibition layer is formed by coating the surface of the recording photoconductive layer with organic polymer by the use of low boiling point solvent.
