Optical information recording medium, and substrate and manufacturing method for the optical information recording medium
View Patent ↗In an optical disk including at least a rewritable phase change material and comprising a recording layer having a reflectivity of more than 15%, an address output value as an address pit signal component occupying in a reproduced signal in a non recording state is prescribed to be 0.18 though 0.27 or a numerical aperture of an address pit signal occupying in a reproduced signal in a non recording state is prescribed to be more than 0.3.
1. An optical information recording medium comprising:
a substrate formed with an area having sinusoidally deflected grooves and address pits scattered and allocated between said grooves;
a recording layer having reflectivity of more than 15%; and
a resin layer formed over said recording layer,
said optical information recording medium is further characterized in that an output value of address pit as a signal component of address pit occupying in a reproduced signal under a not recorded condition in said area is within a range of 0.18 to 0.27.
2. An optical information recording medium comprising:
a substrate formed with an area having sinusoidally deflected grooves and address pits scattered and allocated between said grooves of which a track pitch TP is 0.74 μm;
a recording layer having reflectivity of 18 through 30% being composed of at least a rewritable phase change material; and
a resin layer formed over said recording layer,
said optical information recording medium is further characterized in that an output value of address pit as a signal component of address pit occupying in a reproduced signal by using a pickup having a wavelength of a laser beam of 650 nm and a numerical aperture of 0.6 under a not recorded condition in said area is within a range of 0.18 to 0.27.
3. The optical information recording medium in accordance with claim 2 , wherein said rewritable phase change material is an alloy containing antimony, tellurium, and a metal having a melting point of less than 1100 degrees.
4. The optical information recording medium in accordance with claim 2 , wherein said rewritable phase change material is a silver-indium-antimony-tellurium alloy.
5. A reproducing method for reproducing an optical information recording medium, said optical information recording medium comprising:
a substrate formed with an area having sinusoidally deflected grooves and address pits scattered and allocated between said grooves;
a recording layer having reflectivity of more than 15% being composed of at least a rewritable phase change material; and
a resin layer formed over said recording layer,
said optical information recording medium is further characterized in that an output value of address pit as a signal component of address pit occupying in a reproduced signal under a not recorded condition in said area is within a range of 0.18 to 0.27,
wherein said reproducing method reproduces an optical information recording medium by irradiating a laser beam stopped down by an objective lens on said recording layer.
6. The reproducing method for reproducing an optical information recording medium in accordance with claim 5 , wherein reflectivity of a recording layer is within a range of 18 to 30%.
