  • Other general requirements for dye media are strong absorption, high reflectance, high recording sensitivity, enhancement of photosensitivity, low thermal conductivity as well as light and thermal stability, durability for storage or non-toxicity. Furthermore sharp thresholds of thermal decomposition and steep absorption slopes are desirable.

  • the DVD-R technology adopts as a light source a red diode laser with a wavelength of 630-670 nm. Thereby the pit size and track interval can be reduced, increasing the information storage capacity by up to 6-8 times compared to CD-R's.

By these new specifications the data storage is increased up to 27 Gigabytes per recording layer for a 12 cm diameter disc. By adopting a blue diode laser with a wavelength of 405 nm (GaN or SHG laser diodes), the pit size and track interval can be further reduced, again increasing the storage capacity by an order of magnitude.
