Abstract:
The present invention relates to a high-density disk (20) that is structured to prevent a collision of an optical pickup's objective lens with the high-density disk if the disk is placed upside down in a disk device that is able to record and reproduce signals to/from the high-density disk. A high-density disk recording medium according to the present invention is structured such that, wherein a recording layer having high-density pit patterns is offset from a center plane of disk thickness, both sides of a clamping zone bisected by the center plane have differing thicknesses (P1,P2). One or both sides may protrude from surface of the disk recording medium, or one side of the clamping zone may protrude from the surface while the other side is indented below the surface.

The present invention relates to a high-density disk that is structured to prevent a collision of an optical pickup's objective lens with the high-density disk if the disk is placed upside down in a disk device that is able to record and reproduce signals to/from the high-density disk. A high-density disk recording medium according to the present invention has a reflecting thin film or label (601), formed on a surface opposite to a recording surface, to block a beam incident to an inserted disk not to travel up to a lead-in area, which a disk device tries to read first when a disk is placed, in the event that the inserted disk has been misplaced upside down.
Abstract:
A recording medium is disclosed, comprising: a lead-in area; and a user data area; wherein a minimum length of mark or space of data recorded in the lead-in area is longer than that of mark or space of data recorded in the user data area, and the user data area is recorded such that the data comprising mark or space is reproduced using a Viterbi-related method. Further, a method of recroding data on a recording medium is disclosed.

A high-density disk recording medium according to the present invention is structured such that, wherein a recording layer having high-density pit patterns is offset from a center plane of disk thickness, a center hole of the disk recording medium is asymmetric in shape with respect to the center plane where, for example, both entrances of the center hole have mutually different diameters.
Abstract:
A high-density dual-layer optical disc is disclosed, comprising: a light incident surface and an opposite surface; a substrate including a transparent layer having a refractive index; a first recording layer and a second recording layer, the first recording layer being located spaced apart from the light incident surface by a first substrate thickness (t1), and the second recording layer being located between the first recording surface and the opposite surface at a second substrate thickness (t2) from the light incident surface; wherein a distance between the first recording layer and the second recording layer is set in a range of 19 ± 15 µm, and wherein the refractive index is between 1.45 and 1.70.
