Information-recording medium and method for producing the same

Abstract

Disclosed is a method for producing an information-recording medium comprising, on a substrate, a dye recording layer capable of recording information, the method comprising the step of drying the substrate formed with the dye recording layer by allowing clean air to flow while rotating the substrate at a high speed; wherein an intake for introducing the clean air is narrowed by arranging a lid having a circular opening at a central portion, at an opening disposed at an upper portion of an apparatus for rotating the substrate at the high speed.

1 . An information-recording medium comprising, on a substrate, a recording layer capable of recording information, wherein: 
 said recording layer is dried by rotating said substrate at a high speed and allowing clean air to flow through an intake which is formed to be narrow, toward said recording layer formed on said substrate.    
     
     
         2 - 8 . (canceled).  
     
     
         9 . An information-recording medium comprising, on a substrate, a dye recording layer capable of recording information, wherein: 
 said information-recording medium is produced by constructing a production line so that a relationship of n/m<2 is satisfied provided that m represents a number of molding machine or machines for molding said substrate, and n represents a number of dye application mechanism or mechanisms for forming said dye recording layer.
