Abstract:
1. A method for producing an optical recording medium, comprising: a first step of laminating a substrate and a transfer stamper with a not cured ultraviolet-curable resin interposed therebetween, the transfer stamper having, on at least one of surfaces thereof, recesses/projections that provide information to be transferred; a second step of transferring the information to be transferred of the transfer stamper onto a surface of the ultraviolet-curable resin; a third step of detaching the transfer stamper from the ultraviolet-curable resin at an interface therebetween after the ultraviolet-curable resin is cured; and a fourth step of forming a thin film layer on the information-transferred surface of the ultraviolet-curable resin, the thin film layer including at least one of a recording film and a reflection film, wherein at least one of a weight of the transfer stamper and a viscosity of the ultraviolet-curable resin is set so that a surface roughness of the information-transferred surface of the ultraviolet-curable resin is smaller than a surface roughness of the surface of the transfer stamper on which the information to be transferred is provided.
