An information recording medium having such a recording material layer on a substrate where reversible phase change between electrically or optically detectable states can be caused by electric energy or electromagnetic energy. The recording material forming the recording layer is either a material having a crystal structure including lattice defects in one phase of the reversible phase change or a material having a complex phase composed of a crystal portion including a lattice defect in one phase of the reversible phase change and an amorphous portion. Both portions contain a common element. A part of the lattice defects are filled with an element other than the element constituting the crystal structure. The recording medium having a recording thin film exhibits little variation of the recording and reproduction characteristics even after repetition of recording and reproduction, excellent weatherability, strong resistance against composition variation, and easily controllable characteristics.

An information recording medium ensures high reliability and favorable overwrite cycle-ability even when an interface layer is not provided between a recording layer and a dielectric layer. The recording layer and the dielectric layers are formed on the surface of the substrate. In the recording layer, a phase change is generated between a crystal phase and an amorphous phase by irradiation of light or application of electric energy. The dielectric layers are oxide-fluoride-based material layers containing one or more oxides which each are an oxide of at least one element selected from a first group including only Ti, Zr, Cr, Hf, Nb, Ta, Cr and Si and one or more fluorides which each are a fluoride of at least one element selected from a second group including only La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er and Yb.

A transfer sheet comprises a support, and a transfer layer separable from the support and receivable an ink, wherein the transfer layer contains a hot-melt adhesive particle. The hot-melt adhesive particle in the transfer sheet comprises a particle having a melting point of more than 80° C. (A) and a particle having a melting point of not more than 80° C. (B), and the particle (A) comprises a hot-melt adhesive particle having an oil absorption of not less than 50 ml/100 g (A1) and a hot-melt adhesive particle having an oil absorption of less than 50 ml/100 g (A2). Further, the transfer layer may comprise a film-formable resin component and a dye fixing agent. The transfer sheet is excellent in stability on delivery of a sheet, so prevents the inside of the printer from staining, and excels in ink-absorption to a degree that the stain transfer does not occur.
