    摘要: An optical information recording medium, which includes a substrate, and a recording thin film layer provided on the base material and adapted to form variation in an amount optically detectable by absorbing at least laser light so as to record information by partially varying the recording thin film layer and to reproduce the information by optically detecting the variation amount. The optical information recording medium further includes transparent layers each provided in contact with the recording thin film layer, and each of the transparent layers has optical thickness in which, in at least two different wavelengths .lambda., integral multiple of .lambda./2 is added to the thickness giving the large laser light absorption and large optical variation amount, respectively. More specifically, the optically detectable amount is of a reflectance factor variation, and in the different wavelengths .lambda.1 and .lambda.2, with respect to the thicknesses d1 and d2 of the transparent layers which give the optical characteristic more than 60% in the absorption, and more than 20% in the reflectance factor variation, the thickness of each transparent layer is arranged to be the thickness d having relation as represented by a following equation. d=d1+(.lambda.1/2).times.m=d2+(.lambda.2/2).times.1 (m, l: positive integer or zero).

    摘要: A track on the disk is divided into plural concentric zones on the radial position thereof. During recording, the angular velocity varies according to the zones accessed for recording, and the disk is driven at a rotational velocity whereby the angular velocity is constant within any single zone but decreases as the radial position of the zone of the accessed track approaches the outside circumference of the disk. During reproducing, the disk is driven at a rotational velocity whereby the angular velocity is constant in all zones. The range of change in the relative linear velocity of the head to the track is thus smaller and the change in the recording conditions is less during recording. During reproducing, there is no delay time required for rotational control of the disk, and the desired track can be more quickly accessed.

    摘要: In an optical information recording medium such that a recording layer undergoing an optically detectable phase change by absorbing a laser beam is formed on a transparent substrate having geometrically concavo-convex groove tracks concentrically or spirally formed on its surface, the shapes of the groove tracks are variably determined continuously or stepwise depending on the material of the substrate, the structure of the recording layer, and the radial locations of the tracks so that the thermal diffusivity of heat generated in the recording layer becomes larger in an inner part than in an outer part whereby the differences of recording characteristics between in an inner part and in an outer part are suppressed, and the effective recording area is enlarged. There is also disclosed an optical information recording medium having outer zone in which the groove width decreases monotonically or stepwise as recording radius decreases and inner zone in which the land width increases monotonically or stepwise as recording radius increases.
