A method of and an apparatus for generating a block-based low density parity check (LDPC) matrix, where calculation of an inverse matrix is not necessary and back-substitution is possible over the entire matrix area, and a recording medium having recorded thereon code for implementing the method. An area of the LDPC matrix is vertically divided based on respective lengths of first and second parity bit vectors and, a block-based matrix is generated such that a double diagonal matrix is arranged in an upper portion of an area corresponding to the second parity bit vector among areas into which the LDPC matrix is vertically divided., The area of the LDPC matrix is horizontally divided based on a position of the double diagonal matrix, and block-based matrices are generated in the divided areas of the LDPC matrix, to satisfy a condition that column weights (Wc) are uniform.

A method of manufacturing a compound semiconductor includes the steps of forming a layered structure of dielectric layers including oxygen or sulfur, and an inter layer formed between the dielectric layers, including rare earth transition metal that is highly reactive to oxygen and sulfur, and heating the layered structure. As a result of the chemical reaction and diffusion of elements, one can change a heated portion of the layered structure to a semiconductor or an insulator, depending on the temperature to which the portion is heated.

A method of generating codewords that conform to a run length limited (RLL) constraint represented by (d, k, a, b), where d is a minimum run length of a codeword, k is a maximum run length of the codeword, a is a length of source data, and b is a length of the codeword. The method includes generating codewords conforming to the RLL(d, k) constraint, and removing codewords in which a relatively long T and a relatively short T are placed adjacent to each other from the generated codewords.

A method of and apparatus for reproducing information recorded in a super resolution information storage medium (SRISM) using an appropriate actual reproduction power, which is actually appropriate for reproduction, by actively detecting a threshold region that varies according to the reflectivity of the SRISM are provided. The method of reproducing information from an SRISM includes: radiating a light beam onto the SRISM, while varying a reproduction power of the laser beam, receiving the light beam reflected by the SRISM, and detecting a change in the level of a reproduction signal from the received light beam; calculating, based the change in the level of the reproduction signal, a reference reproduction power at which the gradient of a graph of the levels of the reproduction signal with respect to the reproduction power changes; and setting the actual reproduction power based on the reference reproduction power. The apparatus for reproducing information from an SRISM includes: an optical pickup unit including a light source which radiates a light beam having a range of power onto the SRISM, and a photodetector which receives the light beam reflected from the SRISM and detects a reproduction signal from the received light beam; and a signal processing unit which detects a change in the level of the reproduction signal according to a change in the reproduction power of the light beam radiated onto the SRISM by the light source and sets the actual reproduction power of the light beam emitted from the light source based on a reference reproduction power at which the gradient of a graph of the levels of the reproduction signal with respect to the reproduction power changes.

A higher aspect ratio fine pattern can be formed in the thermal sensitive material layer made of photoresist using heat generated in the first and second light-to-heat converting layers formed on both surfaces of the thermal sensitive material layer.

An optical memory device and a method of recording/reproducing information by using the optical memory device. The optical memory device includes a substrate; a first barrier layer formed on the substrate; a quantum well layer; a second barrier layer; a quantum dot layer; and a third barrier layer. The quantum well layer has an energy band gap which is wider than that of the quantum dot layer, and the second barrier layer has an energy band gap which is wider than that of the quantum well layer, so that electrons in excitons which are generated in the quantum dot layer by light of a certain wavelength are captured by the quantum well layer to record information, and then, recorded information may be erased or reproduced by irradiating light of a certain wavelength to the optical memory device.

An optical recording medium includes a substrate, a first dielectric layer, a recording layer, a second dielectric layer, a super-resolution layer, and a third dielectric layer, which are provided in that order. The super-resolution layer is formed of a material configured such that voids are generated when the material is irradiated with DC light at a predetermined irradiation power for 1 to 300 seconds. Therefore, super-resolution reproduction can be made such that the irradiation power of a readout laser beam does not depend on the size of a recording mark.

A simple-structured recording medium without a mask layer and information recording and reproducing methods, which resolve thermal stability related problems arising during reproduction, the recording medium including a high melting point recording layer between first and second dielectric layers. The method of recording information on the recording medium involves irradiating a laser beam onto the recording medium to induce reaction and diffusion in the high melting point recording layer and the first and second dielectric layers. The method of reproducing information recorded on such a super-resolution near-field recording medium by the above method involves generating plasmon using crystalline particles of the high melting point recording layer and the first and second dielectric layers as a scatter source to reproduce information regardless of a diffraction limit of a laser used.
