Abstract
Disclosed is a disc-shaped recording medium manufacturing method capable of making it difficult to leave the cutting wastage produced upon forming a notch for exfoliating a stamper on a disc-shaped substrate in the case of adopting a stamper-based transfer method, and surely forming the notch to improve a manufacturing yield. This disc-shaped recording medium manufacturing method is that a spacer layer having recording faces on both surfaces thereof is formed between the disc-shaped substrate and the stamper, a notch is formed in the vicinity of an outer peripheral edge of the stamper by a rotary blade of a circle cutter, and the stamper is exfoliated through the notch while the spacer layer stays on the disc-shaped substrate.
