ABSTRACT:
There is provided an optical disk which adopts a PRML (Partial Response and Maximum Likelihood) method for reproduction of recorded information and whose shortest pit has a conical shape without a bottom surface. If the PRML method is adopted, since it is not necessary to assure a large amplitude of a reproduction waveform of the shortest pit, the pit may have a conical shape. The conical pit enables recording with the dense shortest pit even in a conventional original disk recorder and original disk exposure process, thereby increasing a recording density in a dividing direction.
