12" W-O type optical disks are used for large capacity archival data storage system. To extend application area more widely both larger data capacity and higher data transfer rate are required. Such a high density disk also requires more advanced reliability and durability. This paper describes double sided 7GB twelve inch diameter disk for high data rate (1.2-2.2MB/s) application keeping disk life longer than 45 years. User data capacity is advanced using pit-edge method1) and MCAV(Modified Constant Angular velocity) method. Corrosion resistant Te alloy recording layer has high signal to noise ratio, and wide jitter margin. High rotation speed makes data transfer rate higher. Acceleration test shows high reliability.

Certain optical data systems rely upon the ability of the laser to accurately track along grooves in the substrate. The topography and physical properties of the substrate, laser beam characteristics (wavelength, spot size), and physical optics of the optical head all play a role in determining whether tracking is possible on a given optical disk. The effects of each of these variables can be found by modelling the disk as a phase surface which modulates the phase of the incident laser light. Scalar diffraction thcory[l,2] can be used to predict the reflected light intensity as a function of position across the disk for a given system. It is then possible to predict the servo signals which are used for tracking. The primary substrate parameters which affect these tracking signals are the groove depth, the relative widths of the groove and land (duty cycle), the track pitch, the refractive index, and the groove topography. All of these disk properties, excluding the refractive index, are found using Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM)[3]. This gives a detailed three dimensional surface profile for the disk which is then used in the theoretical calculation of the tracking servo signals. These calculated values are compared to actual experimental data obtained using an optical disk tester. Disks were measured which have varying depth and varying track pitch at fixed depth.

The next generation optical disk drives need to realize shorter access time, higher data transfer rate and higher information density than the present ones. To realize each requirement, several methods were proposed and estimated, for example, usage of visible laser sources[1], multi-beam lasers[2,3], a split-type head structure[4] and so on. Although a split-type optical head with two or more light sources may be one of good solutions, it is not easy to control plural spots on an information track precisely and simultaneously in case of continuously-grooved disks. To solve this problem, we proposed a simple tracking method with composed the conventional twin-spot and push-pull tracking methods[5].

The bandwidth of high definition television signal is too wide to record the signal on the disc for a long time. Adopting the MUSE (Multiple Sub-Nyquist Sampling Encording) signal, which is band-width compressed to about 8 MHz, to solve the ploblem, we had developed an HDTV videodisc of 30 minutes per side and player for the profesional use. However, in order to introduce MUSE videodisc to consumer market in the future, the playback time per side is required to be at least 60 min. To realize a playback time of 60 minutes, the authors have developed disc recording system and playback system which handle the high density videodisc.

We found two key attributes of cycle stability for phase change erasable disc media. One is nitrogen modified active layer of GeTe-Sb2Te3-Sb system. The other is the combination of dielectric material of ZnS-SiO2 mixture and SiO2. The disc media having the modified active layer and ZnS-SiO2 dielectric layer show wide tolerance for laser power and long life of more than 60 years. New disc construction shows two million overwrite cycle stability of BER characteristics.
