Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

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.
