FLUROSCENT MULTILAYER DISC
FLUORESCENT MULTILAYER DISC
What is FMD?Fluorescent Multilayer disc is an optical disc
that uses fluorescent rather than reflective material to store data.
It is an three dimensional storage disc developed by Constellation 3D.
Why FMD?Increased disc Capacity.Quick parallel access and retrieval
information.Media tolerances.Usage Flexibility.
Operating Principle:The principle operation of FMD is based on a phenomenon of photochromism. The laser beam when focused on the informationmaterial the material starts radiating than
reflecting.The laser beam causes the photochrome
material to posses the fluorescent properties . The fluorescence is caught up by a device calledphoto receiver.
The usage of photochrome material with increasing the number of information layers do not make the signal worse which is not in case of other optical discs.
The developers state that with blue laser(480nm) it is possible to increase density up to Terabytes on the disc.
This technology prevents the problem of interference since we are using photochrome material which posses the fluorescent properties.
Model of FMD:
Comparison of Disc Layers:
Technological Process:Hot Stamping:The layer is pressed with
polycarbonateand stamped twice with hot temperature. This results in two information layer with pits on each side and
filledwith fluorescent material.
Photoploymerisation:This process is carried out in order to prevent a physical contact with information layer on the edge of the disc this is filled with
polymeric material.
Advantages of FMD:Prevents problem of interference since it uses an
incoherent fluorescent light.Compatible with CD and DVD formats with
more storage area and faster access.Fluorescent technology do not require special manufacturing conditions.The technological advantages.
Applications:Data warehouses.E-commerce related data mining.HDTV.Mobile phones and PDA.PVR

Conclusion:The rapid technological development that is takingplace in storage devices has also made the man think about the needs and the requirements for the storage devices.But for now the FMD, which can provide us with gigabytes(GB) of storage space compared to CD and DVD seems to be an enticing solution for the storage masses.
