A heat mode recordable, optical recording mediumncomprising: a transparent substrate; a recording layerncontaining a dye; and a reflective layer, wherein the recordingnlayer comprises an organic dye, and the medium has an optimumnrecording power of at least 25 mW when recorded at a linearnvelocity v (m/sec) with a laser beam having a wavelength ofn600 to 700 nm, the optimum recording power being defined asna recording power (Po) at which a jitter in recording 8/16nmodulation signals is lowest and being represented by equation:n Po = P 1× (ν/3.5) ∼ 1.5 P 1 × (ν/3.5) nin which P1 is an optimum recording power in recording at anlinear velocity of 3.5 (m/sec). |
