Abstract
A photochromic material containing a copolymer of a spirobenzothiopyran derivative prepolymer and a liquid crystal prepolymer. In addition, a rewritable optical recording medium using the photochromic material. A rewritable optical recording medium obtained by coating a dispersed material, which is obtained by uniformly dispersing a spirobenzothiopyran derivative compound in a thermoplastic resin, on a substrate. A photochromic material capable of controlling a colored state and a decolorized state in a photon mode or a heat mode using an ultraviolet light source and a near-infrared light source. A rewritable optical recording medium capable of rewriting an information in a photon mode using a semiconductor laser.
