Pit Depth Encoded Memories

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The depth of focus of current optical disk players is between 2 and 3μm.1 By varying the depth of a pit within the limits of the depth of focus, we can squeeze more information into each pit without any loss of pit density. For example, if the pit depth is varied in 0.1μm steps, then each pit can represent between 4 and 5 bits of information.
