Optical information record carrier and the method of producing the same.

摘要

An optical information record carrier, in the form of an optical disk, has multiple reflective surfaces (12,15), each carrying separate information and each readable by an optical beam directed from the same side of the record carrier. The topmost reflective surface (12) reflects light of a first waveband and passes light of a second waveband. The next topmost reflective layer (15) reflects light within at least part of the second waveband. The record carrier may be formed by producing a first reflective layer (12) having a first pit pattern in the surface of a transparent substrate (11), pressing the first substrate/layer combination to a transparent stamper (13) having a second pit pattern, with a radiation hardening liquid resin (14) therebetween, irradiating the resin by applying radiation to the resin through the stamper, peeling off the stamper, applying a second reflective layer (15) to the hardened resin surface opposite the surface in contact with the first reflective layer, and applying a protective layer (16) to the second reflective layer.
