Abstract

Novel optical disk configurations that use coated webs are described. These include the Kodak Sealed Disk Assembly, which is made from webs held permanently in tension by a peripheral ring structure, and various sized rigid disk substrates to which are laminated coated webs. Such Laminated Disk Assemblies can provide the familiar mechanical properties of aluminum and can be protected from dust in a number of different configurations. Read/ write performance of the disk configurations is given, and media stability data are discussed.
