Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain erasing by melting adjacent two oblique planes in a V- groove simultaneously, by inserting a pentagonal transparent type prism having an apex in the center of a melting beam, to the incident optical path of the melting beam. CONSTITUTION:A pentagonal prism 7 is arranged i the incident optical path of a melting beam 6, and a beam is divided into two beams (a) and (b) having directions quite a little different from each other, and the beams (a) and (b) are converged on adjacent two oblique planes in a V-grooved disk 9 by an objective lens 8 respectively. Since two spots overlapping with each other are formed, and a melting width can be widened, the adjacent two oblique planes in the V-groove can be molten simultaneously. Also, stable erasing can be attained by a U-groove (irregular groove) because it has also a wide melting width.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention If the disk rotation direction is reversed in FIG. 6, the recording/reproducing spot can be used for melting. However, in that case, information cannot be recorded immediately after erasure, and so-called simultaneous erasure is not possible. After all, the erasing spot needs to be a spot that is so wide that it can melt two slopes at the same time, at a reflective position from the recording/reproducing spot.

Operation With this configuration, the present invention can separate one melting beam into two directions by the S-gon prism using the pentagonal prism, form two spots overlapping each other, and widen the melting width. Therefore, two adjacent slopes of V t'R can be melted at the same time. Furthermore, even in the case of a U-groove (uneven groove), stable erasing can be achieved if the melting width is wide.
