Abstract :
Our recent storage media experiments have concentrated on optimizing the 2-photon photochemistry of our stable ROM/WORM optical storage materials, though we are also exploring erasable photochemistries. Most of our system experiments have used our ROM/WORM material in 1 cm3 cube samples and 5 mm×1" diameter disks. These are fabricated by polymerizing a desired concentration of active molecules in PMMA
