22 June 2006Technologies for removability in a near-field optical disc system
We have ever demonstrated an optical disc system with the capacity of 100 Gbyte over and with the user transfer rate of 100 Mbps over, using near-field optics with a solid immersion lens of a 1.8-NA or more. In this paper, we introduce and discuss some technologies toward the removability of a near-field optical disc drive system.
