Nonlinear light absorption material, recording medium, method for recording information, and method for reading information

Abstract

A nonlinear light absorption material includes a compound represented by the following formula (1) as a main component: in the formula (1), R1 to R10 are each independently a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a saturated hydrocarbon group, a halogenated alkyl group, an unsaturated hydrocarbon group, a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, an aldehyde group, an acyl group, an amide group, a nitrile group, an alkoxy group, an acyloxy group, a thiol group, an alkylthio group, a sulfonate group, an acylthio group, an alkylsulfonyl group, a sulfonamide group, a primary amino group, a secondary amino group, a tertiary amino group, or a nitro group.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
