    Abstract: The present invention is concerned with control and detection of a laser beam for an optical disc recording/reproducing apparatus in which the intensity of a return laser beam reflected by an optical recording medium of a recording laser beam used for forming pits (P) and recording data on the recording medium during the recording mode is detected and an error signal including focusing and tracking error signals of the recording laser beam is formed on the basis of a detection output of the intensity of the return laser beam within a predetermined time interval ( tau ) before the pit (P) starts to be formed by the recording laser beam on the recording medium to control the recording laser beam, and in which, when recording data on the optical recording medium having sub-data previously recorded thereon as pre-grooves with wobbling, these sub-data are detected on the basis of the detection output of the return laser beam within said predetermined time interval ( tau ) or within a predetermined time interval other than said predetermined time interval ( tau ).

    Abstract: There are provided an optical disc (1) and an optical recording apparatus to form a tracking groove onto an optically recordable disc. This apparatus comprises a recording beam generator (2) to generate a recording beam such as a laser beam having a predetermined spot size so as to form a pattern of a predetermined width onto the disc; a light deflector (6) arranged on an optical path of the recording beam generator; and a driver (12) for driving the light deflector (6), for reciprocatingly moving the recording beam in a radial direction of the disc (1) at a high frequency, and for multi-exposing the disc (1) by the recording beam due to the movement of the recording beam in the radial direction, thereby a groove having a width wider than the pattern of the predetermined width is formed. With this apparatus, both of the discrete information pattern and a groove are formed by using a single recording beam. Namely, both of the pits and a wide groove can be formed by using a single recording spot.

    Abstract: LIGHT MODULATING APPARATUS A light modulating apparatus for use with a recording apparatus for recording an information signal on a recording medium includes a light source and an acousto-optic modulator for modulating light emitted from the light source in response to a first electrical signal and thereby producing a modulated light signal for acting on the recording medium. Additionally, the apparatus includes an information signal source for providing an information signal, a high frequency oscillator for producing a carrier signal, a signal modulator for modulating the carrier signal by the information signal and providing therefrom the first electrical signal, and a photo-detector for detecting the modulated light signal and producing in response thereto a second electrical signal. The apparatus further comprises a peak-holding circuit for holding substantially a peak value of the second electrical signal, a comparator for comparing the peak value of the second electrical system with a reference signal and providing a corresponding error signal, and an amplitude modulator for controlling the amplitude of the carrier signal in accordance with the error signal. . .
