Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9923650A1] A 2.5-dimensional optical storage medium (101) is formed from multiple layers of photochromic molecules embedded in a polymer matrix separated by transparent separating layers (107). The medium (101) is moved into position in three dimensions for two-photon single beam information writing. The information thus written can be read bit-by-bit or page-by-page. In the latter case, an area is illuminated, and the fluorescence is detected by a CCD camera.
