Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To uniformalize the thickness of a light transmissive layer and to make recording high dense by applying an photosetting resin from the center part of rotation, spreading by the rotation and photosetting on a surface made flat by embedding a plugging plate in a center hole and a recessed part of the center part of a substrate. SOLUTION: The substrate 10 is molded by injection-molding a polycarbonate and simultaneously fine ruggedness 12 and the circuit recessed part 20 of the substrate are formed. The recessed part 20 is set to, for example, 30 mm diameter and 0.3 mm depth. An information recording layer 15 is formed by adhering a reflecting layer 14 on the fine ruggedness by Al vapor deposition. The plugging plate 21 composed of the polycarbonate is inserted into the recessed part 20. In such a case, the thickness of the plugging plate 21 is set so that the upper surface of the inserted plugging plate 21 is leveled with the substrate or slightly projected over the substrate 10. The liquid photosetting resin is dropped on the center of the plugging plate 21 and is spread by the high speed rotation of the substrate 10. At the same time, the light transmissive layer 18 is formed by irradiating with ultraviolet ray and photosetting. The center hole 10h of the substrate is formed by punching the center part of the plugging plate 21.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To produce an information recording medium (e.g. an optical disk) ensuring a satisfactory transferred state of a recording face even in the case of a narrowed track pitch, well adaptable to high density recording and facilitating reproduction. CONSTITUTION: The molding face of a stamper 12 as a molding tool is transferred to a resin as a molding material to form the recording face 3 of an information recording medium, e.g. an optical disk 1. At this time, the molding tool is kept at a temp. between (Tg--25 deg.C) and Tg (Tg is the glass transition temp. of the molding material).
