Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain the assured additional record just with a single optical beam by using an acoustic/optical (A/O) deflector. CONSTITUTION:A minute variable frequency diffracted wave 6 and a minute light spot 8 are formed on a disk 10 by a frequency variable oscillator 16 together with a reference frequency diffracted wave 7 and a light spot formed by a reference frequency oscillator 15. The spot 8 formed by the wave 6 varies the frequency of the oscillator 16 and is deflected in the disk radius direction at a fixed track pitch interval to record information. While the spot 9 formed by the wave 7 has no shift on the disk 10 although the frequency of the oscillator 16 is changed. Therefore the spot 9 is used to always trace out a reference track which is already recorded on the disk 10. It is possible to perform the additional record assuredly by using an A/O deflector as a polarizer 4.

In this way, the variable frequency diffraction wave 6 generated by the two minute variable frequency oscillators 16 and the optical spot 8 are generated on the disk 10.
A reference frequency diffracted wave 7 and a light spot 9 are formed by the reference frequency oscillator 15. By changing the frequency of the variable frequency oscillator 16, the light spot 8 generated by the variable frequency diffraction wave 6 is deflected in the disk radial direction at a constant track pitch interval, for example, 1.6 μm, as described later, to record information. used. On the other hand, the optical spot 9 caused by the reference frequency diffraction wave 7 does not move on the disk surface even if the frequency of the oscillator 16 changes. Therefore, the light spot 9 of this reference frequency diffraction wave 7 is used to constantly track the recorded reference track 11° shown in FIG. 3, which has already been recorded on the disk 10. Since the light spot 9 of the reference frequency diffraction wave 7 is used in the read mode and the light spot 8 of the variable frequency diffraction wave 6 is used in the write mode, the laser intensity of the light spot 8 needs to be sufficiently higher than that of the light spot 9. can be realized by making the output amplitude of the variable frequency oscillator 16 larger than that of the reference frequency oscillator 15. The diffracted light reflected from the recorded reference track 11° of the optical spot 9 of the diffracted wave 7 is received by the photodetector 13, and a tracking error signal 20 can be obtained from the tracking control circuit 14. This tracking control method is described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 49-60702 and Japanese Patent Publication No. 56-3.
It is known from the publication No. 0610. This tracking error signal 20 is input to a drive circuit 21 to drive an actuator 22 attached to the lens 5, for example, and
When driven, the light spot 9 of the reference frequency diffraction wave 7 becomes
Tracking is performed above the standard recording track 11°.

If the wavelength of the light beam is λ and the speed of the ultrasonic wave is Vs, then A1
The change in frequency ΔνS at zero deflection is given by the following equation. (However, as an A10 deflector, tellurium oxide To
o, is used) Vs ΔνS=Δθ・□ λ Here, Δθ= 2.5 X 10 radianλ=
By substituting 0.8 x 10-4 V s =0.65 x 10'/sac, Δys=0.2 MHz. That is, in order to move the optical spot 8 of the variable frequency diffraction wave 6 by 1 μm on the disk surface, a frequency change of 0.2 MHz is required. (When using lead molybdate, Vs = 3.6X10' mm/sec and Δs:
Becomes IMH. ) Therefore, the interval between the light spots 8.9 should be set to, for example, an integral multiple of the track pitch of 1.6 μm, that is, 1.6Xn (n=1.
2. ...N) pm, the variable frequency of the oscillator 16 is set to δv = v - v ' = 0.3 MHz (=0 ..
Just change it by 2X1.6)-(5), Add
-If the number of tracks to be turned on is 100, then in equation (5), Δ
The maximum value of y (t) is m a X Δv = 30 MHz (=0.3
100). Therefore, if the variable frequency of the oscillator 16 is changed by a frequency corresponding to a track pitch of 1.6 μm each time the disk rotates, the light spot 9 of the reference frequency diffraction wave 7 will always track the existing reference recording track 11''. As a result, the optical spot 9 of the reference frequency diffraction wave 7 always tracks on the reference track, while the variable frequency diffraction wave 6 used for data recording is driven on the disk 1.
The 5th FM shows the structure of the standard recording track 11°, which is deflected by an amount corresponding to the trunk pitch of 1.6 μm each time it rotates, and data is recorded with the optical spot 8 always maintaining a constant track pitch. , in FIG. 5, the reference recording track 111' includes information for tracking the optical spot 9, address information 30 for identifying the reference recording track 116, and reference recording track 11.
For example, 64 sectors 301, 302, ・
..., sector address 31 for specifying each sector, and track 111.1.
Tracks 111 and 11 are recorded with synchronization signals 32 and the like necessary for recording information on tracks 11'' and 11'' based on the synchronization signals recorded on the standard recording track 11''.
Information is recorded in 1... The number of tracks that can be added on to 'one standard recording track 11' is determined by the performance of the A10 deflector. ΔYa is usually 50
MHz is well achievable and therefore 30 MHz
For example, 100 recording tracks corresponding to

It takes 30 minutes for a disk with a diameter of 30 cm at 0 ppm, but in the present invention, it takes 1/30 of that time, and it can be done in 1 minute diameter per disk, which has a great impact.
