An information recording method using an optical recording medium includes the steps of forming a plurality of recording pulses to irradiate the optical recording medium and recording information to the optical recording medium by irradiating the recording pulses on the optical recording medium. At least a leading edge of a first recording pulse and a trailing edge of a last recording pulse of the recording pulses shift at a shifting value, wherein the shifting value is determined by combinations of a length of M(n) of a mark being currently written and at least one of a length s(n−1) of a space precedent to the mark and a length s(n+1) of a space subsequent to the mark.
摘要:
An information recording method using a recording medium having a first state by a first power level of an energy beam and a second state by a second power level of the energy beam higher than the first power level. When a period of a recording time generating clock in a recording mode is T, and a relative velocity of the energy beam and the recording medium is V, the method includes forming a sequence of the second state with length avT (first mark), the first state with length ivT (first space) following the first mark, the second state with length mvT (second mark) following the first space, the first state with length jvT (second space) following the second mark and the second state with length bvT (third mark) following the second space as a first small recording pattern.
摘要:
An optical recording apparatus having a light source and an optical system. The medium is a substrate in the form of a substantially circular disk with grooves and lands alternately formed on the substrate in a radial direction. The grooves and lands both serve as recording tracks which are divided into recording units in a circumferential direction. Each recording unit has an address area devoid of the grooves including first and second address information. The first address information is formed on a first boundary between one track and an adjacent track on one side of the one track, and the second address information is formed on a second boundary between the one track and an adjacent track on an other side of the one track with the first address information and the second address information not existing at opposing positions on the boundaries of the one track.

Good jitter is retained and recorded even when a linear velocity is variable. A recording parameter suitable for each of the linear velocities is obtained by performing test writings for an outer periphery zone of a disc at different linear velocities, and based on a correlation between each of the linear velocities and a recording parameter suitable for each of the linear velocities, a recording parameter corresponding to a linear velocity on an area onto which information is to be recorded is obtained.
摘要:
An information recording/reproducing apparatus for recording information by recording information of a plurality of sectors as one recording unit into an optical information recording medium. A recording area of the optical information recording medium including a plurality of zones, wherein each zone is different in a sector number per round of a track having recording means for recording information of a plurality of sectors over a plurality of zones into the optical information recording medium, and conducting means for conducting a verify control. The recording and a timing of the conduction of the verify control are determined for each zone when the information of a plurality of sectors is to be recorded over the plurality of zones when the zone is changed over during the recording.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for satisfying both high reliability and low error rate when in recording and reproducing information by making the average run length of the RLL code for recording a crystal state shorter than that for recording an amorphous state on a recording film, although the consistence of both high reliability and low error rate has been difficult in the case of conventional optical disks.

摘要:
A method for reproducing information from an optical medium including a substrate with grooves and lands alternately formed on the substrate in a radial direction. The grooves and the lands both serve as tracks which are divided into units in the circumferential direction. Each unit has a prepit area in a non-groove portion of the substrate with a first prepit being represented as VFO information in the prepit area and a second prepit being represented as address information in the prepit area. The first prepit and second prepit are located on both sides of a center line of one track and are arranged with respect to one another. The method includes irradiating an optical spot on the optical medium, detecting address information, controlling the irradiation position of the optical spot on the basis of the address information and reproducing information.
