ている。2. Description of the Related Art Currently, so-called compact discs (ccD) on which audio information is recorded are commercially available as read-only optical discs. As a method of using this compact disk, it is being considered that image information may be stored therein, and an external memory (CD-ROM) for a personal computer may be used to store various digital data. In particular, since it is a non-contact type read-only memory and has a large capacity, its practical use is attracting attention.

The substrate is made by injection molding using a transparent resin such as MMA (bolimethacrylate).

の情報が再生されるようになっている。In FIG. 2, 1 is an injection molded substrate made of transparent resin such as polycarbonate, and 11 is a ready-made bit representing predetermined information such as audio or data. The bits 11 are arranged in a spiral pattern like the grooves on a normal audio record. An aluminum reflective film 2 is formed on the outside of the surface on which the pixel 11 is formed, and a laser beam during reading is transmitted through and irradiated from the opposite surface 13 as indicated by arrow A. The direction of the reflected light is bit 1
1, the intensity of the linearly returned component of the reflected light is read and converted into an electrical signal to reproduce predetermined information.

In the future, for example, when used as an external memory for a personal computer, its uses will be further expanded if it can not only be used as a ROM but also have additional write and rewritable functions.

この発明の方法は、透明樹脂を射出成形することにより

たものでおる。Means for Solving the Problem: The method of the present invention involves forming a bit string representing predetermined information on one side in advance by injection molding a transparent resin;
This is applied to an optical disk in which an optical recording medium layer is formed instead of a reflective film on the surface. That is, the present invention forms a second recording bit string representing arbitrary information on a recording medium layer using a laser beam modulated with a signal having a frequency different from that indicated by the already-formed bit string, and applies the laser beam to each bit string. It is designed to emit light, read the reflected light, separate the signals of each frequency, and reproduce each piece of information.

この発明によれば、予め設けられているビット列の表わ
す信号周波数と異なる周波数を持つ信号によって変調さ

、相互の周波数倍率が十分大きければ読み取シ再生時に

ともないので都合が良い。また、光記録ヘッドとしては

も有利となる。According to this invention, since the post-recording bit string is formed by a laser beam modulated by a signal having a frequency different from the signal frequency represented by the pre-provided bit string, if the mutual frequency multiplier is sufficiently large, the reading signal can be read out. It can be easily separated using a filter circuit or the like during reproduction. Therefore, even if the second bit string is formed overlapping the existing bit string, signal separation is possible and the recording density of both bit strings is not affected, which is convenient. Moreover, as an optical recording head, one for reproducing a pre-existing bit string can be used for recording and reproducing a post-recorded bit string, which is simple in structure and advantageous in terms of cost.
実施例

ビットである。Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. Third, the optical recording medium layer is formed in place of the aluminum reflective film 20 shown in FIG. 2, and is made of, for example, a tellurium-based alloy and has a layer thickness of approximately several tens to several hundreds λ. 31 is a post-recording bit formed on this optical recording medium layer 3 by applying a laser beam.

ット310列は、既成ビット11の列と分離した領域に
形成しなくても良く、第1図に示すように上下重複した
位置に設けられても良い。This row of bits 31 represents a signal having a different frequency from the signal frequency represented by the row of ready-made pins 1-11 made by injection molding. That is, the laser beam is modulated by a signal having a frequency that is, for example, three times higher (or sufficiently lower) than the signal frequency of the existing bit 11 in order to create the bit 31 during recording. The post-recorded bit 310 column does not have to be formed in a separate area from the pre-recorded bit 11 column, but may be provided in a position that overlaps the column above and below, as shown in FIG.
再生時には、いずれのビット列もレーザ光が照射され、

構成のフィルタ回路に工って各成分の信号を分離すれば
よい。During playback, each bit string is irradiated with laser light,
The reflected light is converted into an electrical signal and read, and the signals of each component can be separated by using a filter circuit with a well-known configuration that passes only the frequency components of each bit string.
なお、記録時および再生時におけるトラッキングサーボ

上記実施例においては後記録ビット31を既成ビット1
1の列と重複させて形成しているが、ビット列間の領域
14にかかるように形成しても同様に行える。In the above embodiment, the post-recorded bit 31 is set to the pre-recorded bit 1.
Although it is formed so as to overlap the column 1, the same effect can be achieved by forming it so as to overlap the area 14 between the bit strings.
また、後記録ビット31の形状としては、凹凸、ふくら

であれば適用できる。Further, various shapes of the post-recorded bit 31 can be considered, such as unevenness, bulge, presence or absence of a recording medium layer, change in refraction or reflectance, etc., but any optical change that can be detected by reading light can be applied.

雑にする必要がなく都合が良い。As described in detail, according to the method of the present invention, the respective signal frequencies represented by the pre-recorded bit string and the post-recorded bit string are selected to have such a relationship that they can be separated by an electric circuit during reproduction. Therefore, there is no crosstalk between the two types of reproduced information, and the pitch of the existing bit string can remain the same as before, and there is no need to change it. Since both bit strings are allowed to be formed completely overlappingly in the same area, tracking of the optical head can also be performed in exactly the same way, which is convenient because there is no need to complicate the configuration.
