PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To scan and irradiate the upper section of a body to be irradiated with laser beams more uniformly. SOLUTION: Laser beams output from a beam source section 1 are deflected by a scanning section 3, a feed stage 18 placing the body 10 to be irradiated is moved and the specified region of the body 10 is scanned and irradiated with laser beams. A speed moving at a distance section corresponding to an irradiation effective diameter at the laster beam irradiation place of the body 10 during a scanning period of the scanning section 3 is used as a travel speed in scanning by the feed stage 18 for the body 10.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To raise recording sensitivity, durability, and reproducing property in a ROM type optical disk which performs write once recording by transforming an edge section of a pit in a land/pit array by irradiating it with a recording laser beam. SOLUTION: In the optical disk, a reflection film 4 which comprises an alloy of AlFeX which makes Al as a principal component and containing any one or more sorts of Ti, Cu, Au, Pt and Si as X is deposited on a disk substrate 1 which is formed by continuation of a land 2 and a pit 3, and a protective layer 5 is formed thereon. Write once recording by bit shift is performed by causing transformation of an edge section of the pit by irradiating it with the laser beam. This reflection film is excellent in surface property and durability and recording sensitivity can be raised. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase a subdata recording density in an optical disk recording medium where main data is recorded by combination of a pit with a land and subata is recorded by a mark formed on a reflection film by irradiating the reflection film with laser by recording power. SOLUTION: A subdata recording operation for recording the subdata by the mark formed on the reflection film by irradiating the reflection film with laser by recording power is carried out separately for a recording operation only for the pit and a recording operation only for the land. Thus, the subdata is recorded for both of pit and land sides, and a subdata recording density is increased more than that when only the pit side or only the land side alone is recorded.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To inhibit the operation of a copied magneto-optical recording medium as in the original recording medium even if information is copied to a recording medium, such as the magneto-optical recording medium. SOLUTION: In the recording medium requiring a reproduction auxiliary region for reproduction of a recorded signal, no reproduction auxiliary regions are formed in association with all sectors in which the signal of an identification signal area is recorded, and a reproduction auxiliary region is formed limitedly in associating with only a partial sector. When an individual identification signal and an information signal are copied and recorded from another recording medium to the recording medium, the individual identification signal reproduced from the recording medium can be made different from the actually recorded individual identification signal, so that the copied and recorded information signal cannot be reproduced.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To precisely eliminate the tracking offset and improve the recording and reproducing performance when recording and reproducing a magnetooptical recording medium of a magnetic domain wall movement detection type. SOLUTION: A test for recording and reproducing a recording medium is carried out while giving a prescribed offset to a tracking error signal by adding an direct current component to the tracking error signal or by making an amplification rate asymmetric to a first and second signals for producing a difference prior to the generation of the tracking error signal. Particularly, the recording of a test pattern is carried out in a state in which a certain offset value is set, and the reproduction of the test pattern is carried out in a state in which the offset is still added, and then the quality of the signal is evaluated based on the test pattern thus reproduced. The above operation is repeated two or more times while changing the offset values, and the offset value at which an optimal signal quality is obtained is determined. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To apply a WPP (wobbling push pull) system which has resistance to disturbance such as a radial tilt and has high tracking accuracy with one spot by utilizing a wobbling address which has low redundancy and high density efficiency in land groove recording being effective for increasing density. SOLUTION: When it is clear whether the present recording track is a land L or a groove G in tracking polarity, the address of the track can be known from the relation of an odd number and an even number of each wobble address information. For example, when a spot exists at a groove G in tracking polarity and the even number or an odd number of wobble address information B is confirmed, it is understood that the spot exists at a recording track Trk3. Also, when a spot exists at a land L in tracking polarity and the even number of wobble address information C and the odd number of D are confirmed, it is understood that the spot exists at a recording track Trk6.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To form a tracking error signal even if the track pitch is made smaller than for a cut-off frequency based on the resolution of an optical spot in an optical disk. SOLUTION: In the optical disk 1, information is recorded with pits 2 formed at an annularly formed track. In the optical disk 1, continuous grooves 3 or lands 4 are formed to all the recording tracks. The difference between optical depths of the groove 3 and the land 4 is specified to be nearly λ/8 to the wavelength λ of a laser beam. The interval between grooves 3 (or lands 4) is specified to be twice as wide as a track pitch and pits 2 are formed respectively at the grooves 3 and the lands 4. Tracking error signals reversed every track are formed by detecting returning light of the laser beam with which an information recording surface of the disk is irradiated by using a bisecting photodetector. Tracking can be performed even if the track is disposed with the track pitch having the period smaller than for the optical cut-off frequency. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent crosstalk and cross erasure between the adjacent tracks by reducing influence to an adjacent track in the record part of a long mark. SOLUTION: A record data converting part 20 processes the data conversion of a data pattern providing a large influence to the adjacent track of an optical disk 1 to then output to an optical pickup when recording the data. Specifically, for data pattern in which a same value continues for a predetermined bit length or more the record data converting part 20 processes data conversion reversing a bit being a part of the data pattern based on a conversion table and then compensates record operation. Or the record data converting part 20 controls the output power and pulse width of laser instead of reversing the bit and thereby compensates the record operation. A data converting part 19 recognizes the data being data converted to be processed when reproducing the data by the record data converting part 20, and decodes to original data to output it.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical recording medium which has wobbles disposed desirably from the viewpoint of the manufacturing process when the optical recording medium has wobbles in part of the boundaries between lands and grooves. SOLUTION: In an optical recording medium such as a format, on the surface of the nearly discoid-shaped disk substrate 15, grooves 15a are formed, and projecting parts and recessed parts divided by the grooves 15a for every track region are provided, further, an optical recording layer 16 and a protective film 17 which have a rugged shape copying the grooves 15a are stacked on the substrate 15, and both the projecting parts (lands L) and the recessed parts (grooves G) are utilized as recording regions. Wobbles W which provide clock information or address information are formed on the side wall part which constitutes the inner peripheral side of the disk substrate 15 seen from the recessed part (groove G) and constitutes the outer peripheral side of the disk substrate 15 seen from the projecting part (land L) among a pair of side walls which constitute the grooves 15a and which are facing each other.
