摘要:
A forming/film-forming apparatus (700) forms a disk substrate from a stamper (330) formed from an optical display blank (320) and forms a coating film, e.g., a reflective film on the disk substrate to fabricate an optical disk (340). An additional recording apparatus (200) additionally records additional information on the recorded optical disk (340) fabricated by the forming/film-forming apparatus (700). Additional information is recorded on a portion detectable as a pit when a laser beam is applied to a predetermined area of the recorded optical disk (340), and thus an optical disk (350) where the additional information (420) is recorded is fabricated. In such a way, identification information for identifying the optical disk (350) is additionally recorded.
摘要:
A modulated signal generator contributing to increasing the speed of signal processing and facilitating adaptation to special and new formats. A modulation program for producing an original disc (320) of an optical disc is previously stored in modulation storage section (130). The information data recorded on an optical disc master (310) is reproduced by an information reproduction section (110) and outputted into a modulation control section (120). The modulation control section (120) subjects the reproduced information data to a modulation signal processing according to the modulation signal processing program so as to create a data stream and stores it in a modulation information storage section (140) if necessary. The modulation control section (120) outputs the created data stream to a modulation signal output section (150) when the data stream is created or outputs the data stream stored in the modulation information storage section (140) to the modulation signal output section (150). The modulation signal output section (150) outputs the data stream to a laser beam recorder (200) with a predetermined clock. The modulation signal generator can be applied to production of an optical disc such as a CD, MD, or DVD.
