A recordable optical information recording medium having an address t for each sector, comprises: an area A1 starting from an address t1 to which access is made only when a recording apparatus performs recording operation; an area A2 starting from an address t2 to which access is made either when the recording apparatus performs the recording operation or when the recording apparatus performs reproducing operation; and an area A3 starting from an address t3 to which access is made either the recording apparatus or a reproducing apparatus performs recording or when either recording apparatus or the reproducing apparatus performs reproducing. The addresses t are set consecutively with respect to a physical arrangement of the sectors in each of the areas A2 and A3, and the area A1 has at least on inconsecutive part at which the addresses t are not consecutive with respect to the physical arrangement of the sectors.

A method of initializing a phase-change optical information recording medium is provided, using an optical system incorporating a semiconductor laser device. The laser device is characterized by a specified spatial power distribution. In a spatial distribution of the laser power focused on the recording medium, in the direction perpendicular to guide tracks the laser device preferably has less average smaller in both end regions of the spatial distribution, which have each 10% of the width at half maximum of the distribution, than the average in the center region of the full width at half maximum of the distribution.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for initializing optical recording media is provided that detects the intensity of a reflective light off of an optical recording media and analyzes the initializing condition based on the detected intensity during an initializing process. The light is radiated on a rotating phase-change optical recording medium. The light may be moved in a radial direction of the optical recording medium. The detected intensity of the reflected light may be used to identify crystallized portions and amorphous portions of the optical media. The initialization process can be adaptively controlled to ensure proper initialization. If desired, re-initialization can be limited to those areas detected to be outside of the predetermined parameters.

摘要:
The phase-change type optical information recording medium includes a transparent substrate, a first protective layer on the substrate, a recording layer on the first protective layer, a second protective layer on the recording layer, and a reflective layer on the second protective layer. Assuming that minimum recording linear velocity is V1 and maximum recording linear velocity is V2, then a value of ratio I(V2)/I(V1) of a degree of modulation corresponding to the maximum and minimum linear velocities is between 1 and 1.2.

A phase-change optical recording medium is disclosed including a supporting substrate and the following contiguous layers formed on the supporting substrate in the order recited such as a first dielectric layer, a recording layer, a second dielectric layer, a metal/alloy layer, and an ultraviolet light curing resinous layer. The recording layer is characterized by its uppermost recrystallization linear velocity ranging from about 5.0 m/sec to about 10.0 m/sec, which can be utilized in read/write/erase operations for the recording medium at linear velocities higher than the quad-speed as well.

摘要:
Both a low-linear-velocity recording and a high-linear-velocity recording can be effectively performed by an optical recording method for recording information on a phase-change optical recording medium which is recordable at a low linear velocity and a high linear velocity greater than the low linear velocity. A ratio (Pel/Pwl) of an erasing power Pel to a recording power Pwl in the low-linear-velocity recording and a ratio (Peh/Pwh) of an erasing power Peh to a recording power Pwh in the high-linear-velocity recording are determined so that the ratio (Pel/Pwl) and the ratio (Peh/Pwh) satisfy the relationship {(Pel/Pwl)
