Disk-memory pregroove inspection

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

An optical inspection system has been developed that detects parameter fluctuations in an optical disk pregroove structure (groove pitch, depth, and width). This optical system was devised using a laser diffraction phenomenon. Groove parameters are measured and calculated from diffracted-light intensity ratios; the groove width is calculated from the second-order diffracted-light intensity ratio to that for the first order. The groove depth is given from the first-order ratio to the zeroth-order light intensity. In addition to this groove parameter inspection, this system is capable of groove defect detection using a spatial filter whose passband is designed to be between the zeroth- and the first-order diffracted-light areas.
