Title:
【発明の名称】光ディスク装置および光ディスク
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2569005
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
An optical memory apparatus employs an optical disc having a plurality of guide-grooves in spiral and concentrical form and a plurality of flat tracks each arranged between adjacent two of the guide-grooves for recording information thereon, and the depth of the guide-grooves is suitably selected to increase the degree of modulation of a track cross signal, thereby performing a stable cross track counting by the use of the track cross signal and a tracking signal. One feature of the invention relies in that the modulation degree of the track cross signal is in the range between 30 and 60%. A second feature of the invention is that the guide-grooves are formed into a V shape and have an optical depth of lambda /6 to lambda /5 ( lambda is the wavelength of the light used). In accordance with the invention, not ony a stable cross track counting is realized, but also the tracking signal is not practically varied with variations in the depth of the guide-grooves, thereby ensuring a highly accurate and stable tracking control.
