A disc-shaped information recording medium includes a first recording layer (L0 layer) having (I) a first trial write area (101P-1) for trial write of first trial write information for calibration of the laser beam along the first track path (TP1) from the inner circumference toward the outer circumference and (II) a first recording area for recording the first recording information along a first track path (TP1), in this order from the inner circumference side. Furthermore, the disc-shaped information recording medium includes a second recording layer (L1 layer) having (I) a second trial write area (101P-2) for trial write of second trial write information for calibration of the laser beam along the second track path (TP2) from the outer circumference toward the inner circumference and (II) a second recording area for recording the second recording information along a second track path (TP2), in this order from the inner circumference side.
摘要:
When a bias power level of a recording pulse waveform is varied entirely or partially, a shape of the recording pulse wave form is varied according to the variation. For example, when the bias power level is increased, a width or an edge position of a top pulse or a multi-pulse of the recording pulse waveform is varied correspondingly. Thereby, a total heat quantity of a recording laser light is not increased, and a preferable recording characteristic is maintained.
摘要:
An information record medium is provided with: a first record layer (107) for recording first information, and one or more second record layers (207) disposed on said first record layer, each second layer being for recording second information, each layer of said second layers has a predetermined area (PCA1-1) where a power calibration is performed to detect an optimum recording power of recording laser beam transmitted through the first record layer and another layer of the second layers, said another layer positioned closer to said first record layer than said each layer, and in opposite areas (TA) of said another layer and said first record layer, said opposite areas being opposite to said predetermined area of said each layer of said second layers, a first absolute amount of at least one of width and depth of a groove is increased and thereby light transmittance in said opposite areas is approached to (i) light transmittance under an assumption that the first absolute amount is not increased and said another layer and said first record layer are in a recorded state, in comparison to (ii) light transmittance under an assumption that the first absolute amount is not increased and said another layer and said first record layer are in a non-recorded state.
摘要:
An optical recording medium which can produce a read signal free from waveform distortion during reproduction of information. The optical recording medium comprises groove information tracks on which information pits carrying information data is to be formed, and prepit tracks provided with a plurality of previously formed land prepits connected to the groove information tracks. The groove information tracks and the prepit tracks are arranged in alternation. The groove information track has a track width smaller in at least a part of each of sections in which the land prepit exists than in sections in which no land prepit exists.
摘要:
On a record medium, record information and reservation information to perform a reserved recording operation for the record information are recorded. The reservation information has: a scheduled time to start recording onto the record medium the record information of particular one kind, which is set in advance for respective one of record mediums including the record medium, among the record information of a plurality of different kinds which are recordable on the one record mediums; and a scheduled time to stop recording onto the record medium the record information of the particular one kind.
