Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
An information storage disk which has on a substrate a recording layer which reversibly form amorphous crystal phase change under irradiation of light, a reflective layer comprising a metal layer for efficiently utilizing the irradiated light and a spacer layer inserted between said recording layer and reflective layer, said reflective layer comprising as a main component a metal selected from the group consisting of Ni-Cr, Cr and Ti, and as an additive a metal having a larger malleability than said main component metal.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 83 words
An information storage disk which has on a substrate a recording layer which reversibly form amorphous crystal phase change under irradiation of light, a reflective layer comprising a metal layer for efficiently utilizing the irradiated light and a spacer layer inserted between said recording layer and reflective layer, said reflective layer comprising as a main component a metal selected from the group consisting of Ni-Cr, Cr and Ti, and as an additive a metal having a larger malleability than said main component metal.
