20090190461 | OPTICAL DATA STORAGE SYSTEM FOR RECORDING AND/OR READING AN OPTICAL DATA STORAGE MEDIUM FOR USE IN SUCH SYSTEM - Multi layer near-field optical recording using a moderate numerical aperture (NA) is superior to the high-NA (NA=2.0) first-surface single-layer technique. The use of very flat and thin spacer layers limits spherical aberration due to difference in layer depth. The thin spacer layers may have a high refractive index because their thickness allow for a relatively high absorption constant. This makes possible in principle an m-layer system, e.g. m=4, with NA=1.6 which may include a flat, protective cover layer. Further a medium for use in such a system is described. | 07-30-2009 |
