Abstract
A recording wavelength generator selects control parameters of a recording pulse sequence, based on combinations of mark length, a first space length of a first space immediately before the mark, and a second space length of a second space immediately after the mark. A laser drive circuit records the marks by the recording pulse sequence. The first and second space lengths are classified into m and n types, respectively. An absolute value of a difference between two predetermined control parameters from among (m×n) control parameters selected during recording on a second information layer located on an incidence side of the laser beam with respect to a predetermined first information layer from among N information layers is equal to or greater than an absolute value of a difference between two predetermined control parameters from among the (m×n) control parameters selected during recording on the first information layer.
