Abstract:
1. An optical-recording medium comprising: at least a first recording layer for recording information optically; and a second recording layer for recording said information optically by a light beam that passes through said first recording layer; wherein when said information is recorded on said first recording layer and second recording layer at a constant linear velocity, and a same address position of said first recording layer and said second recording layer are such that the same address position on said second recording layer is relatively offset so it is further inside than the same address position on said first recording layer, the track pitch of a recording track formed on said second recording layer is narrower than the track pitch of a recording track formed on said first recording layer so that the overall offset value in the radial direction is a predetermined value or less; and wherein when said predetermined value range is 200 μm or less, the track pitch of said second recording layer is narrower than the track pitch of said first recording layer by the range of 0.1% to 0.6%.
