ABSTRACTRewritable optical-storage systems are quickly gaining market share in audio, video and data- storage applications. The development of new rewritable optical-storage formats with higher capacity and data rate critically depends on innovations made to the recording media incorporating so-called phase-change materials. These materials allow reversible switching between a low and high reflective state induced by laser heating. In this paper, we highlight phase-change media aspects as optical and thermal design, sputter-deposition, materials optimization, and the development of new recording strategies. Focus is on the speed race in optical recording.
