  • Thermoplastic optical recording medium using IR wave length
    Patent number: 4053872
    Abstract: An apparatus for and a method of recording or writing optical data into a thermoplastic layer is disclosed. The apparatus includes a layer of photoconductive material that is photoconductively responsive to a data containing light beam having a wave length below the infrared (IR) range and a layer of thermoplastic material that is thermoplastically responsive to a light beam having a wave length within the IR range. In practicing the method of the present invention, the electrically charged apparatus is exposed to a data-bearing light beam having a wave length below the IR range for selectively exposing, i.e., electrically charging, the photoconductive layer.
