CONCLUSIONS Experimental results of track pitch, minimum pit length of a
CD , DVD and Blu-Ray agree well with known values.
Experimental results of grating spacing obtained from the diffraction pattern using CDs and DVDs agree well with the grating spacing obtained from imaging them with the AFM.
The AFM image of a CD was used to determined the no. of data bits per square micrometer. The total usable area of a CD was determined from measurement and used to calculate the storage capacity of the disc.
The density of the tracks of CDs and DVDs as compared to a Blu-Ray was used to explain the increase in storage capacity and the recent technology used to further increase the same.
