An optical information recording medium characterized by comprising a
temperature-sensitive layer formed on a substrate, for reversibly
changing in reflectance and/or transmittance with a temperature change. A
temperature-sensitive layer having the property of changing in
reflectance with a temperature change is used, as well as the property of
changing in light interference effect with a temperature change, thereby
providing an optical information recording medium capable of providing a
higher, more stable reproduction signal power.
