The present invention relates to an optical disc on which an information signal can be rewritten. Guide grooves (81a) for tracking control are formed on respective tracks of the rewritable area where an information signal can be rewritten. A recording layer (83) onto which an information signal is to be written is laminated on a substrate on which the guide grooves (81a) have been formed. The information signal can be rewritten on the recording layer (83) at least in the rewritable area using near-field light based on multibeam. Concave portions (85a) are formed on the outermost surface of the disc recording medium in correspondence with the positions of the guide grooves (81a).

An optical recording medium illuminated by light from a light source as near-field light using a focusing lens whose numerical aperture exceeds 1 to perform recording and/or reproduction is provided, wherein a composite layer in which a high refractive index material portion having a refractive index higher than that of a light-transmissible material portion is mixed in the light-transmissible material portion is provided on the surface of a light incident side of the optical recording medium. With an average refractive index of the composite layer being high, a numerical aperture controlled by a refractive index of a surface layer can be made large to obtain higher resolution and higher durability against contact with a lens or the like.

The object of the present invention is to improve the accuracy of a recording signal and a reproduction signal of a magneto-optical recording medium. In a magneto-optical recording medium (2) having at least a metallic reflection layer (3), a back dielectric layer (4), a magneto-optical recording layer (5) and a light transmitting dielectric layer (6) sequentially provided on a substrate (8), the thickness of the light transmitting dielectric layer (6) closer to a convergent lens (1) is set at 50 to 80 nm. Alternatively, the refraction index n of the light transmitting dielectric layer (6) is selected to satisfy the relationship of n0×0.8≦n with the refraction index n0 of the convergent lens (1).
