Data capacity is primarily determined by the laser wavelength and the numerical aperture (NA) of the objective. In the DVR system, a blue (400 nm) semiconductor laser and a NA=0.85 two-lens objective are used, to achieve a capacity of 22 GB on a single layered optical disk with CD-like dimensions. The disk cover layer is only 0.1 mm thick, to achieve sufficient robustness against optical aberrations (coma) from disk tilt. Cover layer thickness variations result in spherical aberrations. For a user bitrate of 50 Mb/s, the required linear velocity of the track is 9 m/s. Given the manufacturing tolerances of the disk, the accelerations of the track in focus and radial direction can then be computed. Furthermore, there is an optical requirement on the maximum allowable error in spot position relative to the track, resulting in a minimum required bandwidth for focusing and radial tracking (3.6 kHz and 5.0 kHz).","PeriodicalId":215485,"journal":{"name":"2000 Optical Data Storage.

The three-dimensional recording (3DR) technology uses a novel optical imaging technique to store digital information throughout the third dimension, the depth, of storage media. A grating or plane wave hologram is recorded during a photochemical formatting process of the media in a highly controlled factory environment. Portions of the grating can then be erased during bit writing in the less controlled end-user drive environment with a conventional DVD-type optical stylus. Reading is achieved in the drive by detecting the erased bits with the same optical stylus at reduced laser power.","PeriodicalId":215485,"journal":{"name":"2000 Optical Data Storage.

They provide phase holograms, which are very attractive since they can achieve very high diffraction efficiency. It is often desirable to provide an in-situ recording of holographic recording with different lasers sources. Diffractive optical elements (DOEs) attract great interest and holographic photopolymer dispersed liquid crystals (H-PDLC) are emerging as very promising for these applications. Recently, such materials have been sensitized to be sensitive in the near infrared region of light. The characterization of these materials is an important challenge that can result in a better understanding of the holographic grating formation photochemical process. These steps are important in order to reach the fabrication of more efficient DOEs. Since, these materials have self-developing properties (via free radical photopolymerization), the growth curve of the diffraction efficiency can be monitored as it is being recorded. We are interested in (and we actually study) holographic recording characteristics of our photopolymers, which include diffraction efficiency (in transmission and reflection modes), modulation transfer function, sensitivity, recording linearity, shrinkage, stability, etc. The corresponding details will be reported at the conference meeting.","PeriodicalId":215485,"journal":{"name":"2000 Optical Data Storage.

While for phase-change (PC) media the local heating induces a physical change between the amorphous and the crystalline phase, for magneto-optical (MO) media heating above the Curie temperature allows the reversal of the magnetic moment. These changes result in a change of the intensity or the polarization state of the reflected beam. For development or optimisation of such writable or rewritable layers a system is helpful, that allows to irradiate the media with a pulsed and diffraction limited laser spot, whose pulse power and duration can be modified. Fast photodetectors allow to measure the change of intensity and/or polarization during and after the heating process initiated by the laser, which gives indications for the dynamics of the media.","PeriodicalId":215485,"journal":{"name":"2000 Optical Data Storage.
