[Problem]: An optical recording medium having a capability of recording and/or reading high density optical information using a short wavelength laser light is provided.
[Means to Address the Problem]: The optical recording medium has a capability of recording and/or reading high density optical information using a short wavelength laser light having a wavelength of 350 nm to 530 nm. The optical recording medium has a recording layer containing a metal complex compound and formed on a substrate. The metal complex compound is composed of a cyclic β-diketone azo compound represented by the general formula (I) or general formula (II) and a divalent metal ion coordinated to the cyclic β-diketone azo compound.
