Indolestyryl compound for use in recording media and method for fabrication thereof

Indolestyryl compounds and use thereof for a high density recording media and method for fabricating the same. The indolestyryl compounds exhibit strong absorbance in the visible light region (400˜700 nm) of the spectrum, resistance to heat and light, high light sensitivity, and excellent solubility, resulting from their special chemical configuration. Furthermore, the indolestyryl compounds can be used as recording layer materials in high density recording media for matching a reading laser wavelength and enhancing the reflective index and carrier-to-noise ratio (CNR) of the high density recording media. Accordingly, the recording sensitivity and the readout characteristics of high density recording media comprising the indolestyryl compound according to the present invention can be improved.
