  • Patent number: 6746746
    Abstract: The inventions relates to a laser beam optical recording medium which features several read/write levels, comprising a first half-transparent level and at least a second level, the first one being close to the laser transmitting source, each level comprising a phase changing material layer with two stable states controlled by a laser beam, where the phase changing material is a metallic alloy whose chemical formula writes as: [(GeyTe1-y)a(SbzTe1-z)1-a]1-b(In1-xTex)b with: 0.4≦y≦0.6 0.3≦z≦0.5 0.4≦x≦0.6 0.3≦a≦0.5 0.01≦b≦0.3 the reflection coefficient of the first level being in the range from 10% to 30%, the transmission coefficient being at least 45%, the writing power being lower than 23 mW and the erasing power being lower than 10 mW.
