Abstract

A BCA mark is applied prior to molding of optical recording media. A stamper including a BCA code is formed. The stamper including the BCA code is used in the molding of optical recording discs. This technique can be used in manufacturing of read-only type discs, recordable discs, rewritable discs, hybrid discs, discs readable from both disc sides, discs having multiple information layers, high-density discs, etc.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION [0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60 / 687,101, filed Jun. 3, 2005 and entitled “METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR APPLYING BURST CUTTING AREA MARK PRIOR TO REPLICATION”.TECHNICAL FIELD [0002] This application relates to optical recording media. In particular, the application relates to application of a burst cutting area (BCA) mark prior to molding of the optical recording media. DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART [0003] Use of CDs (compact discs) and DVDs (digital versatile discs or digital video discs) as optical storage media (“optical disc”) for storing and transporting content (such as audio, video, graphics, computer software, etc.) in an optically readable manner has been popular for a number of years. Several formats of optical discs are currently available, including (A) read-only formats such as CD-DA (digital audio compact disc), CD-ROM (CD-read-only memory), DVD-ROM, and other formats wherein content is pr...
