Abstract

See full text

An optical data storage apparatus and disc in which information is stored in the form of multiple submicron depths at information-storage sites on the disc surface. The depth information is read by directing a focused laser beam onto the storage sites, back reflecting a portion of the reflected beam into the laser cavity, and converting power fluctuations in the laser beam to submicron distance measurements.
