    摘要: A laser recording device of an embodiment is for a thermal recording medium in which at least one color development layer developing a color through heat and a protective layer protecting recorded information obtained through color development of the at least one color development layer are laminated, and has light transmission properties before recording. The laser recording device includes a recording head in which emitters emitting laser light from laser light sources are arranged, and a recording controller performing parallel processing of control for causing the laser light sources to emit light independently of each other and guiding the laser light from the emitters to the thermal recording medium.

    摘要: In a drawing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when performing drawing on a thermal recording medium that includes, above a recording layer, a light-transmitting member having an uneven shape in a plane, an optical compensator having one surface and another surface is provided on the light-transmitting member to cause the one surface and the light-transmitting member to face each other, and the thermal recording medium is irradiated with a laser beam via the optical compensator. The one surface of the optical compensator has a shape that fits the uneven shape of the light-transmitting member, and the other surface is flat and opposed to the one surface.

    摘要: A method of forming a multi-colored image on a substrate that includes a thermochromic material capable of producing at least two different colors is disclosed. The method includes heating individually selected pixels of the thermochromic material that correspond to the image to one or more first temperatures sufficient to activate the selected pixels of the thermochromic material for color shift. The area corresponding to the individually selected pixels is flooded with a first UV radiation dosage sufficient to at least partially polymerize the thermochromic material. The individually selected pixels are heated to one or more second temperatures while the area is flooded with a second UV radiation dosage.
