Characterization of Birefringence of Optical Disk Substrates Using a Novel Ellipsometric Approach

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The birefringence of polycarbonate optical disk substrates is of great concern because of its negative effects on the performance of optical data storage systems. In this presentation we describe our results in characterization of birefringence using ellipsometry.
