The manufacturing method for the optical recording medium is characterized in that when the optical recording medium having a dyestuff recording layer on a substrate is formed by a solution coating method, the dyestuff is dissolved by using the solvent which consists essentially of a fluorinated solvent and with which at least one selected from the group consisting of ketone alcohol, amines, amides, Cellosolves and hydroxyacetylenes is mixed to form the recording layer. 溶液塗工法により基板上に色素記録層を有する光記録媒体を作成するに際し、フッ素系溶媒を主成分とし、ケトンアルコール、アミン類、アミド類、セロソルブ類、ヒドロキシアセチレン類のうち少なくとも1種を混合した溶剤を用いて色素を溶解し、記録層を形成することを特徴とする光記録媒体の製造方法。 - 特許庁
