Claims
- 1. Method of manufacturing a metal matrix particularly adapted for the manufacture of optically readable synthetic resin information carriers, characterized in that a substrate plate is provided on one side with a reflective optical structure and a recording layer, the recording layer comprises a synthetic resin double-layer having an expansion layer facing the substrate plate and a retention layer positioned on the side of the expansion layer away from the substrate, an optically reflective structure is provided at the interface of the substrate plate and the expansion layer or at the interface of the expansion layer and said retention layer or at the interface of air and said retention layer thereby forming a master disc, the optical structure of the master disc thus obtained is scanned by a continuous, first laser light beam, the recording layer is exposed to a second laser light beam which is controlled by the first beam and pulsated in a conformity with information to be recorded, information bits being thus formed in the recording layer due to the exposure to said second laser light beam, the recording layer is then provided with a metal skin and the metal skin, in which the surface structure of the recording layer is copied, is removed from the recording layer thus forming the metal matrix.
- 2. A method of claim 1 wherein the reflective optical structure is a structure provided with grooves and with a reflective layer which grooves are scanned and followed on the basis of phase differences with the portions of the structure surrounding the grooves.
- 3. A method as claimed in claim 5, characterized in that the information bits are formed in the parts of the recording layer situated between the grooves.
