Optical Properties of Multi-layer Chalcogenide Thin Film for Optical Recording Media
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
We present the results of optical properties of multi layer thin films as in the media of phase change optical disk data storage. Reflectance and optical contrast of multi layer thin films increased rapidly between 100 °C and 150 °C. Moreover, optical contrasts at different wavelength were also studied. The refractive index and the optical band gap decreased, while the extinction coefficient increases as the crystallization occurs. The Egopt of crystalline thin film was ∼0.6 eV lower than that of amorphous thin film. Egopt decreased as the number of stacked layer increased.
