Information Recording Medium, Information Recording Device and Method and Computer Program

摘要

An information recording medium, provided with: a first recording layer (L0 layer) to record therein record information by irradiating laser light (LB); and a second recording layer (L1 layer) to record therein the record information by irradiating the laser light through the first recording layer, the second recording layer having a first calibration area ( 113 ) which is to record therein pattern information for obtaining an optimum power of the laser light and which corresponds to a recording area ( 104 ) of the first recording layer in which the record information is unrecorded, a head portion of the first calibration area being disposed at a position where it is displaced by a predetermined distance toward a direction of recording the pattern information, on the basis of a head portion of the recording area of the first recording layer in which the record information is unrecorded.
