    Area of Science:

    • Materials Science
    • Optical Engineering
    • Data Storage Technologies

    Background:

    • Optical disks are crucial for data storage.
    • Improving data transfer rates is a key challenge in optical disk technology.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop novel media fabrication methods for optical disks.
    • To significantly enhance the data-transfer rate of optical disk storage.

    Main Methods:

    • A beam-scanning method for multispiral pregroove recording was developed.
    • A new fabrication method for phase-change optical disk media was created, enabling dual-wavelength reading and writing.

    Main Results:

    • The beam-scanning method achieved recording of a sixfold spiral pregroove with 1.6-µm spacing.
    • Phase-change media demonstrated signal reading at 670 nm and writing at 830 nm.
    • A 1.2x higher linear recording density and over 25 dB erasability at 40 m/s were achieved with the phase-change media.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed fabrication methods offer a tenfold increase in data transfer rate potential.
    • These advancements pave the way for next-generation high-speed optical disk systems.
