A phase change mode optical disk comprising a transparent substrate, a recording layer provided on the transparent substrate and subjected to crystalline-amorphous phase change on radiation by laser power, and protective layers provided directly below and above the recording layer, the recording layer being expressed by a general formula (SbaTebGec)100-d.Sd in which ratios of the number of atoms of the components satisfy the relations, 5 <= a <= 60, 35 <= b <= 65, 5 <= c <= 65, a+b+c=100 and 0 /< d <= 40, or/and either one or both of the protective layers being formed by a mixture of Zn(1-x)Sx and at least one kind of substance (when a metal is zinc, sulfide is excluded) selected from oxide, nitride, fluoride, carbide and sulfide of a metal or a metalloid, a ratio <u>x</u> of the number of atoms of sulfur in Zn(1-x)Sx being x > 0.50. The optical disk according to the present invention enables the repetition characteristics of recording and erasure, i.e a possible number of repetitions and a possible number of readings to be improved, and the deterioration of a recording mark, which is ascribed to many-hour reproduction, to be substantially prevented.

Disque optique à mode de changement de phase comprenant un substrat transparent, une couche d'enregistrement appliquée sur le substrat transparent et soumise à un changement de phase entre les phases cristalline et amorphe sous l'effet d'un rayonnement laser, et des couches protectrices directement appliquées au-dessous et au-dessus de la couche d'enregistrement. Cette dernière est exprimée par la formule générale (SbaTebGec)100-dSd, dans laquelle les rapports entre le nombre d'atomes des constituants sont conformes aux relations suivantes: 5</=a</=60, 35</=b</=65, 5</=c</=65, a+b+c=100 et 0 < d</=40, et/ou l'une ou l'autre des couches protectrices, ou les deux, sont composées d'un mélange de Zn(1-x)Sx et d'au moins un type de substance choisi entre un oxyde, nitrure, fluorure, carbure et sulfure d'un métal ou d'un métalloïde (sachant que si le métal est du zinc, le sulfure est exclus), un rapport <u>x</u> du nombre d'atomes de soufre dans Zn(1-x)Sx étant tel que x > 0,50. Le disque optique selon l'invention présente des caractéristiques d'enregistrement et d'effacement répétés, c'est-à-dire que le nombre admis de répétitions et de lectures est accru, et la détérioration d'une marque d'enregistrement, qui est due à la reproduction prolongée, est essentiellement évitée.
