A phase change optical recording medium which enables optimum direct overwrite even under high speed high density conditions without degrading repetition durability or storage stability of recorded signals. To this end, the phase change optical recording medium has a recording layer formed at least of a phase change material and is recorded and/or reproduced with a laser light beam having a wavelength ranging between 380 nm and 420 nm. A ratio Ac/Aa, where Ac is the absorption rate of said recording layer in a crystalline state and Aa is the absorption rate of said recording layer in an amorphous state, is not less than 0.9, and a crystallization promoting layer promoting the crystallization of the phase change material is contacted with at least one surface of the recording layer. By exploiting the absorption rate control and the crystallization promotion in combination, it is possible to positively compensate the difference between the physical properties of the crystal phase and those of the amorphous phase to realize optimum direct overwrite.

Disclosed are an apparatus for initializing an optical recording medium to be initialized with stability and ease without employing any focus servo means, and a phase-changing optical recording medium initialized by the initializing apparatus to have a recording layer in a uniform crystalline state over an entire area of the medium which takes part in recording and reproduction of an information signal. In the apparatus for initializing a phase-changing optical recording medium, a laser beam emitted from a laser beam source is irradiated to a recording layer, in an amorphous state, formed in an optical recording medium to be initialized, which is a pre-stage member of the phase-changing optical recording medium, for changing the recording layer into a crystalline state. The laser beam source, e.g., a YAG laser, includes a high-speed shutter for exciting the laser beam source while the laser beam source is held in a state of not starting oscillation, and emits the laser beam within a very short time on the order of several tens nanoseconds (ns) to several hundreds nanoseconds (ns) with its peak power increased more than 10000 times that produced in a continuous oscillation mode.
