Optical data medium and a method for manufacturing the same.

摘要

An optical data medium is disclosed from which information recorded to the surface is reproduced by focusing a laser thereon and reading the light reflected from the data surface. The medium includes a first transparent layer having a top data surface for carrying data, and a second transparent layer having a bottom data surface for carrying data. A semi-transparent layer is inserted between the first and second transparent layers. When the laser is focused on the top data surface, the data carried therein is reproduced, and when the laser is focused on the bottom data surface, the data carried therein is reproduced. <IMAGE>
