摘要:
An information recording medium (10) comprises a base sheet (2a), a resin layer (2) formed on the base sheet (2a) and having a holographic region (6) provided with a diffraction grating (4) in a regular or irregular arrangement, and a ferromagnetic thin film (3) formed on the holographic region (6) of the resin layer (2). The ferromagnetic thin film (3) has a specific magnetic characteristic dependent on a holographic pattern formed in the holographic region (6). The magnetic characteristics of the ferromagnetic thin film are converted into signals corresponding to the holographic pattern.
