Abstract: An optical disc signal recording for forming a record mark according to a recording signal on an optical disc by applying a laser beam of a predetermined power level to the optical disc is provided. A recording pulse having a first period having a first level of Po and a width of Wh, a middle period having a second level of Pm lower than the first level Po and a width of Wm, and a last period having a level substantially equal to the first level Po and a width of Wt is generated and used for all record marks regardless of the lengths of the record marks. The record mark is formed using the generated pulse on the optical disc. As a result, setting of a write strategy is facilitated, an adjustment time in variable speed record mode is shortened, and a good recording characteristic is secured.

Abstract: An electric energy generating apparatus configured to generate a desired electromotive force from hydrogen and oxygen is provided. The apparatus includes a hydrogen electrode film, an electrolyte film and an oxygen electrode film. The hydrogen electrode film, to which hydrogen is supplied, includes a catalyst layer containing a decomposing catalyst that decomposes hydrogen into protons and electrons. The electrolyte film includes a sheet having a plurality of voids. Oxygen is supplied to the oxygen electrode film. The voids in the electrolyte film are filled with proton-conducting material and/or the decomposing catalyst. This prevents the hydrogen from reaching the oxygen electrode film. When hydrogen is supplied to the hydrogen electrode film, the concentration of hydrogen of the oxygen electrode therefore decreased to such a value as required generating the desired electromotive force.
