Information recording method

1. An optical recording method for an optical medium including a disk-like substrate, a plurality of tracks extending in a circumferential direction on the disk-like substrate and associated with a plurality of grooves, a plurality of zones being provided on the disk-like substrate and extending between a first position and a second position in a radial direction of the disk-like substrate, each zone including at least two tracks, each track being divided into a plurality of units of circular arc shape extending in the circumferential direction, radially adjacent units of a respective zone being delimited by a pair of radial lines joined to form a central angle at an apex proximate to a center of the disk-like substrate, each unit of a respective zone being delimited by the same central angle and the units of different zones being delimited by different central angles, each unit having substantially the same length, wherein the grooves are wobbled in the radial direction of the disk-like substrate and the length of each unit is an integer multiple of a cycle of the wobble, the integer multiple being the same for the different zones, the method comprising the steps of:

providing the optical medium; and

recording information on the optical medium by irradiating an optical spot thereon.
