OPTICAL STORAGE DEVICES

An optical storage device comprises a homogenous film of polymer material into which data items are written by causing crosslinking of regions of the material by cycloaddition. This may be effected by writing with UV light or an ionising radiation. The crosslinking causes a change in the molecular a...

Zusammenfassung:An optical storage device comprises a homogenous film of polymer material into which data items are written by causing crosslinking of regions of the material by cycloaddition. This may be effected by writing with UV light or an ionising radiation. The crosslinking causes a change in the molecular alignment in the region. The polymer material may be a nematic liquid crystalline polyester of the structure: g
