摘要:
An optical disc consists of a base plate, a reflective thin layer, and a protective thin layer. The optical disc has a sample mark area having two sample marks, one of which is off-set on one side of a track, another of which is off-set at an opposite side of a track. These sample marks are produced by an injection molding with replica technique. At the time of the injection molding, additional pressure moves soft injected plastic resin, which causes double transcription of the sample marks. For preventing the double transcription, groove areas are provided on opposite sides of the sample mark area. The groove areas provide an anchor effect at the time of injection molding.

The present invention relates to an optical information medium for recording and reproducing information optically. Particularly, it is concerned with a so-called sample servo type optical information medium wherein an optical head traces over the center line of an imaginary track on the basis of information obtained from at least a pair of wobble pits disposed on both sides of the said imaginary track center line. A continuous groove is formed between the paired wobble pits along the imaginary track center line in a certain area of the optical information medium so that the deviation of each wobble pit from the imaginary track center line can be easily grasped and the conditions of the wobble pits being formed can be estimated. The quality of the medium being manufactured can be easily judged by the presence of such continuous groove.
摘要:
A video optical disk system which can record/reproduce information in the same recording format as that of a read only type optical disk such as an LD, and is therefore compatible with both the read only type optical disk and a writable optical disk. A writable optical disk exhibiting a C/N ratio of at least 60 [dB] is employed, and has information recorded thereon with the same address signals as those of the LD and in the NTSC direct FM recording format. An optical head and an image processing circuit which are included in a player unit are made common to the recorded disk and the LD, and characteristics of a focusing/tracking control circuit, an RF signal preamplifier circuit and a tilt control circuit which are included in the player unit are changed over on the basis of reflectances of both types of optical disks, thereby enabling both the recorded disk and the LD to be reproduced. The users of the optical disk system can produce original video software by themselves, and can effectively utilize a software stock of read only type optical disks.

An optical recording method for an optical medium including a disk-like substrate, a spiral or concentric-shaped groove structure along a track formed on the disk-like substrate, the groove structure being wobbled in a radial direction of the optical medium, the track being divided into a plurality of units in the track direction by at least one radial boundary line, at least two adjacent units in the radical direction of the medium comprise one zone, the optical medium including a plurality of zones, and the groove structure included in the adjacent units within at least one zone having substantially a same number of wobbling. The method includes providing the optical medium, and recording information on the optical medium by irradiating an optical spot thereon.
摘要:
A recording method for an optical medium including a disk-like substrate, a spiral or concentric-shaped groove structure along tracks formed on the substrate, each of the tracks being divided into a plurality of units, each of the units including a dropout portion of the groove structure which is a non-groove portion along the track in a circumferential direction of the track, the groove structure being wobbled in a fixed cycle in a radial direction which continues in the circumferential direction along the track. When the wobble is formed in the circumferential direction of the track, the dropout portion is formed so that a phase of the wobble is continued with a phase of the wobble of the groove structure within another unit adjacent to the dropout portion. The method includes providing the optical medium, and recording information by irradiating an optical spot on the medium.
摘要:
An apparatus for reproducing information recorded on an optical recording medium, including a disk-like substrate, a spiral or concentric-shaped groove structure along tracks formed on the substrate, each of the tracks being divided into a plurality of recording units. Each of the recording units includes a dropout portion in a circumferential direction of the groove structure with the dropout portion being a non-groove portion. The groove structure is formed with a wobble in a fixed cycle in a radial direction which continues in the circumferential direction along the track. Each length of the recording units is an integer multiple of the cycle of the wobble. The apparatus includes an irradiation source for irradiating a light spot on the medium, an optical detector for detecting a reflected light from the medium, and a reproducer for reproducing information by using a signal from the optical detector.

An information recording apparatus for recording information to an optical recording medium including a disk-like substrate having a plurality of tracks and associated with a plurality of grooves. A plurality of zones are provided on the disk-like substrate and each zone includes at least two tracks. Each track is divided into a plurality of recording units of substantially the same length. The grooves are wobbled in the radial direction and a length of each recording unit is an integer multiple of a cycle of the wobble which is the same for the different zones. The information recording apparatus includes an irradiation source for irradiating a light spot on the optical recording medium, and a controller for controlling an irradiation position of an optical spot from the irradiation source.
摘要:
In playing back data in an optical disk device, to perform high-speed data playback with a low number of playback retries even if an error occur when data is being read. In reading data composed of ECC blocks, if a data error occurs during a read operation, the data from sectors for which PI error correction can be performed is left alone. Playback retries using different playback conditions are performed just on the sectors for which PI error correction can be performed. Thus, the playback retry count can be reduced.
