  • Publication number: 20100297381
    Abstract: A method for improving read stability of optical recording medium is disclosed. In the method, the thickness of a recording layer of an optical recording medium is adjusted to control the disc absorptivity, and the recording layer thickness is matched with a power difference between a laser write power (Pw) and a laser erase power (Pe), so as to control the optimal laser power for irradiating and accordingly changing the optical properties of the recording layer. It is found that by using properly increased recording layer thickness corresponding to a given disc absorptivity, and properly matching the recording layer thickness with a properly increased power difference, the read stability and recording characteristics of the optical recording media can be improved without significantly changing the layer structure and writing strategy of the optical recording medium.

  • Publication number: 20090176048
    Abstract: A recording material of Ag1-xSbx (x=10.8˜25.5 at. %) films for WORM optical disk recording media is invented. The thermal analysis shows that the phase change temperature of AgSb film is between 250 and 270?. The optical property analysis shows that all the as deposited films have good optical absorption and high reflectivity. The X-ray Diffraction analysis shows that the as deposited film and the annealed film are kept at ??-AgSb crystalline phase. The TEM analysis shows that the grain size of the Ag80.9Sb19.1 film will grow after annealing. The dynamic test shows that the carrier-to-noise ratio (CNR) of the Ag80.9Sb19.1 optical disc is about 45 dB with ?=657 nm, NA=0.65 and a linear velocity of 3.5 m/s. These Ag1-xSbx films have good optical absorption, high reflectivity and good carrier-to-noise ratio. It can be used as the WORM optical disk recording film.
