Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical recording medium suitable for use in a holography memory system. SOLUTION: The optical recording medium includes a glassy hybrid inorg. org. three-dimensional matrix in which an optical image forming system having >=1 optically active org. monomer is disposed. The medium provides the precursor material of the hybrid inorg. and org. matrix shown in figure and is produced by mixing the matrix. precursor material with the optical image forming system and curing the matrix. precursor material, thereby forming the matrix in the original position. The hybrid matrix. precursor material is typically the oligomer derived from the compd. expressed as Rn M(OR')4-n , where M is a metal element having tervalent or higher valence, such as silicon, titanium, germanium, zirconium, vanadium or aluminum; R is an alkyl or allyl; R' is a lower alkyl; n is within a range of 1 to 2. The hybrid characteristic of the matrix material renders several advantages.
