Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9962061A2] An optical recording medium is described having a grooved recording layer. The structure of unwritten tracks must enable a scanning device to derive a radial tracking error signal according to the push-pull method. The structure of the written tracks must enable the scanning device to derive a radial tracking error signal according to the high-frequency phase-detection method. To this end the width and depth of the groove are in the range from 0.3 to 0.6 times the wavelength over the numerical aperture of the radiation beam used for scanning the recording medium, and from 1/24 to 1/7 times the wavelength over the refractive index, respectively. The phase difference between the radiation beam reflected from a region on track in between written marks and from a mark is in the range from 0.4 to 2.0 radians.
