Pigment Reflective Layer Color
Phtalocyanine Gold/Silver Yellow/White
Cyanine Gold/Silver Dark Green/Bright Green
Azo Gold/Silver Dark Blue
It is composed of Silver _ colored aluminum plate and Reflective layer.
Groove (Pit) of aluminum plate make a track.
Laser wavelength : 780 nm, Laser Power (Read): 0.5mW
Signal is detected by the
difference of reflective beam
intensity between pit and
Land on the disc.
It is so-called WORM (Write Once Read Many) CD.
It is composed of polycarbonate layer, Organic dye layer, Reflective layer, and Protective
layer.Gold/Silver Reflective layer is used to enhance the reflectivity
According to the kinds of Organic dye layer, it is divided by Green CD, Gold CD, Blue CD.
Laser Wavelength : 780 nm, Laser Power (read) : 0.7 mW
Recording Power : 8x(14~20mW), 16x(25~35mW)
When some part of dye layer is exposed to laser heat, its color changs black.Therefore, writing and
reading is enabled by the difference of reflectivity between changed part and unchanged part.
Polycarbonate layer has Pre_Groove which make a Track.
