Abstract
A recording method suitable for high-density recording is provided. When information is recorded on an optical recording medium with irradiation of a write pulse of a laser beam, a length corresponding to 7 T is set to be equal to or less than the spot diameter λ/NA of the laser beam where T is one recording clock cycle, λ is a wavelength of the laser beam, and NA is a numerical aperture of the objective lens, and a specified mark with a length corresponding to 3 T or more is recorded by a single write pulse.
