摘要:
High-speed and high-density recording of a layer-selected optical disc are enabled with a small number of electrodes. A plurality of recording films that are independently selectable are disposed between a pair of electrodes 3 and 8. The recording films are controlled individually in terms of a threshold of voltage required for coloration and electric characteristics. A desired layer can be selected by changing the voltage applied between the pair of electrodes.

An information recording medium and manufacturing method for high-speed and high density recording. An inorganic film is formed by sputtering while applying a bias voltage to shift the substrate voltage potential in the negative direction, or a laminated film is formed by applying energy after coating a substrate with an organic film, and the irregularities maintained even after the laminated film is formed, so that stable, high-capacity and high-speed recording can be attained by forming a multi-information-layer that still retains the irregularities.

In an optical disk in which a recording layer is selected by applying voltages, a different address pit is formed in each recording layer. To this end, a plurality of recording layers are formed in a way that the plurality of recording layers follow a concavo-convex shape formed in a substrate, and thus the plurality of recording layers keep the concavo-convex shape even after the formation; mutually different address marks are add-on written, as a part of the address information, respectively to recording layer so that the address and track information can be confirmed in each layer.

An information recording medium capable of displaying multiple labels and a storing case for the information recording medium are provided. The multiple labels are displayed by changing the labels to be displayed while selectively selecting information layers in a multi information recording medium. The medium has a function to receive either voltage or current, and the information layers selectively receive either voltage or current for changing the labels.

When external and internal environmental variation factors (characteristics of medium, variation in voltage, deterioration of medium and the like) occur, a reproduced signal is varied. In a learning system for reproduction of a voltage layer selection type multi-layer optical disk which making recording or reproducing by irradiation of energy, a level and/or pattern of an application voltage is adjusted in accordance with a reproduced signal at a predetermined position. Even if the reproduced signal, from the reflectivity down, is varied due to the external and internal environmental variation factors (characteristics of medium, variation in voltage, deterioration of medium and the like), the reproduced signal with the high quality can be obtained from the voltage layer selection type medium.

Grating grooves of a predetermined shape are filled with a polymerizable liquid crystal, and thereafter, the polymerizable liquid crystal is cured to form a striped structure including a uniaxial polymer liquid crystal having an alignment orientation identical to the longitudinal direction of the grating grooves, without using a liquid crystal alignment film. Consequently, it is possible to stably and effectively align the polymer liquid crystal without using an alignment film and to adjust the film thickness easily, whereby a polarization splitting element exhibiting a high and uniform split efficiently can be obtained stably.

An information reproducing method using PRML technology which provides asymmetry compensation and also assures media interchangeability. To compensate for asymmetry, target levels are basically adapted to readout signals and either restriction type (1) (time reversal and level reversal symmetry) or restriction type (2) (time reversal symmetry) is imposed between target levels. As a consequence, asymmetry compensation is made regardless of a readout signal distortion such as mark shift which might deteriorate media interchangeability.
摘要:
A combined aspherical lens has an aspherical shape with an intermediate substrate thickness between the substrate thicknesses of a BD and an HD in a numerical aperture (NA) range for the HD, and an aspherical shape dedicated to the BD in an NA range for the BD only. The lens is designed such that wave aberration occurring through the NA range for the HD for BD reproduction has the same aberration form as but has an opposite sign to wave aberration occurring through this range for HD reproduction. Further, in the NA range for the HD, a pattern of annular transparent electrodes is optimized for a spherical aberration wavefront defocused to minimize the maximum inclination of the wave aberration. A phase shift applied is within plus or minus half wave excluding an integer wavelength of aberration.
摘要:
Two optical discs used with a laser light having the same wavelength but having different substrate thicknesses can be handled by a single optical disc apparatus and a multilayer optical disc can also be reproduced. A refractive lens unit and liquid crystal elements are provided so as to condense laser light on an optical disc having a thin substrate thickness with a first NA and to condense laser light on an optical disc having a thick substrate thickness with a second NA smaller than the first NA. The refractive lens unit is designed such that the amount of RMS wavefront aberration is minimized with respect to an intermediate substrate thickness between the two optical discs in the range of the second NA; and the RMS wavefront aberration is 0.05λ or less with respect to the substrate thickness of the optical disc in an area outside the second NA. A liquid crystal element for compatibility corrects spherical aberration due to the difference in substrate thickness between the two optical discs. A liquid crystal element for multilayer corrects spherical aberration based on layer selection of a multilayer optical disc.
