In a recording strategy suitable for high-speed recording, a laser driving signal includes a top pulse having a pulse width corresponding to a recording mark length and multi-pulses having a period 3-times larger than a base clock period of a recording mark. The top pulse is has the first identical-shape top pulses when the recording mark length is 3nT (“n” is a natural number), the second identical-shape top pulses when the recording mark length is (3n+1)T, and the third identical-shape top pulses when the recording mark length is (3n+2)T.
摘要:
An information recording medium is provided with: a recording layer (L0 layer, L1 layer) having one or a plurality of predetermined recording areas (CDZ, 101 and the like) in which record data including buffer data in a finalizing process can be recorded; and a management area (CDZ) in which the management information (50a) can be recorded, the management information including first identification information (51a) for identifying whether or not embossed pits are formed in the predetermined recording area.

An object of the invention is to provide an optical disc in which the influence of recording interference is reduced to make it possible to narrow the interval between adjacent recording tracks and increase the recording density of information. The optical disc comprises a substrate on which the grooves are formed, a reflecting layer for reflecting an optical beam, a recording layer, and a cover layer for protecting the recording layer, in which the cover layer, the recording layer, the reflecting layer and the substrate are disposed in this order from the side where the optical beam is applied, and the thickness of the recording layer formed in an area opposed to the groove and forming a recording track is greater than the thickness of the recording layer formed in an area opposed to an area on the substrate between two adjacent grooves.

An optical disk (100) comprises recording management areas (103, 113) in which record management data for managing data recording is recorded. The record management data includes (i) physical position information (122, 125, 126) indicating the positions of physical buffer areas in which buffer data for buffering recording operation is physically recorded and (ii) logical position information (121) indicating the position of a logical buffer area in which buffer data is logically recorded or to be recorded.
