ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a permanent memory structure supported by a moving substrate.
This substrate is formed by two metal layers (9, 10) vacuum-deposited on the relatively inexpansible substrate (1). One of the two metal layers is very expansible (9), while the other layer (10) is relatively inexpansible, but ductile. During inscription by the laser beam, the beam energy absorbed by the layers (9, 10) produces an elongation of the expansible layer (9), which deforms the ductile layer (10) by stretching it beyond the elastic limit. There is a permanent deformation of the two-layer assembly, without perforation.
Particular application to optical disks.
