Description

  The present invention relates to a molding material for an optical disc substrate, an optical disc substrate molded from the material, and an optical disc formed therefrom. Furthermore, it comprises a support substrate, a reflective layer formed on the substrate, and a light-transmissive cover layer of a polycarbonate film formed on the reflective layer, and recording and / or recording with laser light incident from the cover layer side An optical disk having the above-described structure, wherein the supporting substrate is made of a thermoplastic resin composition made of a polycarbonate resin and polycaprolactone, and the resin exhibits a low water absorption rate. The present invention relates to an optical disk substrate for a support substrate, characterized in that warpage change due to environmental changes is small. In particular, the present invention relates to an optical disk substrate for a support substrate in a high density optical disk having a very large recording capacity.

  The recording density of optical discs is continuously improving from 0.6 GB for CD to 4.7 GB for DVD and 15 to 25 GB for BD and HD-DVD. For example, the capacity of 4.7 GB is realized in DVD-R, DVD-RW, and DVD-RAM that can be recorded / reproduced as well as a read-only DVD-ROM. Also, Blu-ray Disc (hereinafter referred to as BD) and HD-DVD, which are recording media compatible with digital high-definition broadcasting, realize 15 to 25 GB.

  Conventionally, a polycarbonate resin (hereinafter referred to as PC-A) obtained by reacting a carbonate precursor with 2,2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) propane (hereinafter referred to as bisphenol A) is transparent, heat resistant, mechanical It has been widely used in many fields as an engineering plastic because of its excellent characteristics and dimensional stability. Furthermore, in recent years, utilization of the transparency as an optical material in the fields of optical discs, optical fibers, lenses and the like has been developed, and in particular, in the field of optical discs, it is widely used as a material for information recording medium substrates.

  However, it has been an important issue that an optical disk substrate is small in deformation due to environmental changes (for example, moisture absorption and dehumidification processes). In particular, in the BD, in order to realize a large capacity with an optical disc of almost the same size as a CD or DVD, the thickness of the light-transmitting cover layer is reduced to about 0.1 mm, and the NA is about 0.85. The laser wavelength is set to about 400 nm. The reason why the light-transmitting cover layer is made thin is that the thinner the recording / reproducing side substrate, the greater the allowable value of the warp angle (hereinafter referred to as tilt) of the disc. When the wavelength of light is about 400 nm, it is said that the allowable value of tilt can be made the same as that of DVD by setting the light-transmitting cover layer to about 0.1 mm. However, by maintaining the thickness of the optical disk at 1.2 mm in order to maintain compatibility with the DVD, the signal recording layer is sandwiched between the 0.1 mm light-transmitting cover layer and the 1.1 mm support substrate. An optical disc configuration. Since the disk configuration is asymmetrical, environmental changes, especially moisture absorption, moisture absorption difference and dehumidification rate difference (or difference in water absorption expansion coefficient due to different materials) in the moisture absorption and dehumidification process become large, and a large tilt change Occurs, which greatly affects the recording / reproducing characteristics. For example, since the wavelength of the laser is shortened and the pickup lens has a high NA, coma aberration increases even if the substrate is warped, causing a focus error and a tracking error. In addition, since the distance between the pickup lens and the substrate approaches as the NA increases, it is important that the warpage change due to the substrate warpage and the environmental change is small in order to avoid contact between the lens and the substrate. In particular, when the vehicle is in operation, the room temperature is high and the humidity is low. Therefore, a rapid change is likely to occur, and a focus error such as a signal being unreadable due to disk deformation is likely to occur.

  In order to suppress such deformation due to environmental changes, in order to suppress water absorption deformation, it has “a substrate, a recording layer arranged on this substrate for recording information signals, and a transparent protective layer laminated on the recording layer. , A disc-shaped information recording medium for recording / reproducing information signals by making light incident from the transparent protective layer side. This substrate is integrated with a resin core layer and a core layer, Is an information recording medium characterized in that the recording layer side has irregularities in the information signal on the surface of the recording layer, and is composed of a resin surface layer that is more fluid than the core layer. A substrate using a resin with a rate of 0.3% or less has been proposed, and a direction to solve the problem by a complicated substrate configuration by two-color molding or sandwich molding is shown. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1) Further, it includes a support substrate, a reflective layer formed on the substrate, and a light-transmitting cover layer formed on the reflective layer, and laser light is incident from the cover layer side. In an optical disc of a recording and / or reproducing type, a method of suppressing the moisture absorption amount by forming a moisture absorption preventing film on the main surface of a support substrate has been proposed. (For example, refer to Patent Document 2) At that time, the moisture absorption preventing film is formed in an island shape or a donut shape, and the size of the inner diameter is optimized, whereby the recording / reproducing side substrate and the base material are formed. Balances expansion due to moisture absorption. Thus, it is said that tilt change due to moisture absorption can be suppressed, but the number of manufacturing steps is increased for forming a moisture absorption preventing film. Further, it has been proposed to suppress a change in warp due to an environmental change by using a material having a low saturated water absorption rate for the thermoplastic resin used for the support substrate. In particular, it has been proposed to use an alloy of polycarbonate resin and polycaprolactone as a substrate material for optical disks. (For example, Patent Documents 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7) In Patent Document 3, 1) 0.1 to 40 parts by weight of a biphenyl terphenyl compound with respect to 100 parts by weight of a polycarbonate resin, and 2) a number average molecular weight of 2 A method has been proposed in which 0 to 20 parts by weight of polycaprolactone of 1,000,000 to 100,000 is added to improve the rigidity of the substrate material and to reduce the saturated water absorption rate, thereby suppressing warpage during the molding of the substrate. . In the material, the heat resistance is greatly reduced by adding a low molecular weight compound, and thus the change in warp becomes large in an environmental change, particularly in a high temperature state such as in an automobile interior. Moreover, in patent document 4, resin for optical disk substrates formed by mixing 50 to 5 parts by weight of a styrene polymer with a thermoplastic resin comprising 80 to 98 parts by weight of a polycarbonate resin and 20 to 2 parts by weight of polycaprolactone. Proposed. However, the purpose of this proposal is to reduce the birefringence of the optical disk by adding a styrene polymer. Furthermore, the heat resistance is reduced by adding the styrene resin, and thus the warpage change is increased in an environmental change, particularly in a high temperature state such as an automobile room. In Patent Document 5, two optical disk substrate resins containing 200 to 10,000 ppm of polycaprolactone having a number average molecular weight of 10,000 to 50,000 per 100 parts by weight of polycarbonate resin may be bonded. Proposed. Since the disk configuration is symmetric, the change in environment, especially the difference in moisture absorption and dehumidification rate in moisture absorption and dehumidification processes (or the difference in water absorption expansion due to different materials) becomes equivalent, and the tilt change can be suppressed. No mention is made of an asymmetrical optical disc. Furthermore, since the water absorption rate does not decrease with the blending amounts used in the examples, it is not expected to improve the warp change due to environmental changes in an asymmetric optical disk. Patent Document 6 proposes a resin composition obtained by blending 0.1 to 50 parts by weight of polycaprolactone having a number average molecular weight of 5,000 to 10,000 with respect to 100 parts by weight of a polycarbonate resin. The material has been studied for the purpose of improving the releasability by improving the adhesion to metal, and the warpage change of the environmental change has not been studied. Further, in Patent Document 7, A) 0.1 to 20 parts by weight of a sulfonic acid phosphonium salt, B) 0.1 to 1 part by weight of a phosphite, and 0.01 to 0.01% of a sulfur-containing ester with respect to 100 parts by weight of a polycarbonate resin. A resin composition comprising 3 parts by weight, C) 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a caprolactone polymer has been proposed. The material has been studied for the purpose of improving the retention stability by adding a heat stabilizer and preventing coloration by adding polycaprolactone, but when applied to an optical disk, it is a phosphonium sulfonate salt that is an antistatic agent during molding. Adheres to the mold and causes poor appearance of the molded product, resulting in a decrease in yield.

  As described above, any of the methods specifically shown shows good characteristics as an optical disk with a small warp change due to the environment, but it is not always sufficient. In addition, various studies have been made by using an alloy material of polycarbonate resin and polycaprolactone for the optical disk substrate material, but no study has been conducted to suppress the warpage change due to environmental changes, and this is a new concept. I can say that.

In particular, polycarbonate resins which are repeating units derived from 2,2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) propane, or 4,4 ′-(m-phenylenediisopropylidene) diphenol and 9,9-bis (4-hydroxy) It is preferably a polycarbonate resin which is a repeating unit derived from -3-methylphenyl) fluorene and whose constitution ratio is in the range (molar ratio) of 10:90 to 90:10. Further, the polycarbonate resin is more preferably in the range of 30:70 to 70:30 (molar ratio).

  The polycaprolactone contained in the thermoplastic resin composition of the present invention preferably has a number average molecular weight of 5,000 to 100,000, more preferably 7,000 to 50,000, Most preferably, it is 000-30,000.

  The glass transition temperature of the thermoplastic resin composition of the present invention is preferably 110 ° C to 180 ° C, more preferably 120 ° C to 170 ° C, and further preferably 130 ° C to 160 ° C. When the glass transition temperature is lower than 110 ° C., the heat resistance is insufficient in the environment inside the automobile and thermal deformation occurs, which is not preferable. On the other hand, if the glass transition temperature is higher than 180 ° C., the melt fluidity is poor and a molding defect is caused, and the precision transferability to the mold becomes inferior.

  The glass transition temperature was measured using DSC-2910 (trade name: DSC2910, manufactured by TA Instruments) in accordance with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) defined in JIS K7121. The measurement conditions are a heating rate of 20 ° C./min, a nitrogen flow rate of 40 ml / min, and a measurement temperature of 20 ° C. to 250 ° C.

The thermoplastic resin composition of the present invention is preferably at least ^{5 cm} 3/10 min is the value of MVR, more preferably 20 cm ^3/10 minutes or more, still more preferably at least 30 cm ^3/10 min. And 70 cm < ³ > / 10 minutes or more is the most preferable. The upper limit of the value of such MVR is preferably 100 cm ^3/10 min, more preferably 90cm ^3/10 minutes.

  If this range is exceeded, the transfer rate in forming the optical disk substrate will be affected. That is, the transfer rate is lowered and the moldability of the optical disk substrate is impaired. Further, it is not preferable because a focus error and a tracking error are likely to occur.

  The melt volume rate (MVR) was measured using a semi-auto melt indexer (trade name: L251, manufactured by Toyo Seiki Co., Ltd.) having an orifice (die) having a length and a diameter defined in ISO1133. The measurement conditions were a test temperature of 300 ° C., a test load of 11.77 N (1.2 kgf), and the time of the sample passing through a certain section was measured. The flow rate (capacity) per unit time was calculated, and the unit was shown in cm3 / 10 minutes.

  The thermoplastic resin provided in the present invention has a saturated water absorption measured by immersion in water at 23 ° C. of 0.3% or less, and more preferably 0.25% or less. If the saturated water absorption exceeds 0.3%, it is not preferable because warpage of the optical disk is likely to change during the moisture absorption and dehumidification process, and a focus error and a tracking error are likely to occur.

  This saturated water absorption was measured by the rate of change in weight due to immersion in water at 23 ° C. as defined in ASTM D570. The measurement sample was molded with a circular mold having a diameter of 45 mm and a thickness of 30 mm (vacuum press molding machine (product name: SFV-10, manufactured by Shindo Metal Industries, Ltd.), mold temperature 300 ° C., pressure 0.5 MPa, holding time 1. After melting in 5 minutes, compression was performed at a pressure of 1.5 MPa and a holding time of 5 minutes). The obtained molded product was dried at 120 ° C. for 4 hours or more and weighed to obtain an initial weight (W0). Then, it was immersed in water at 23 ° C., taken out from water every 24 hours, weighed after removing moisture on the surface of the molded product, and the water absorption was calculated by the following formula. Water absorption rate = {(measured weight every 24 hours) −W0} / W0 × 100 (%)

  The change in warpage in the process of moisture absorption and dehumidification of the optical disk was transferred to the environment of 23 ° C. and humidity 50% RH after the disk was exposed to reach the saturated water absorption rate in the environment of temperature 30 ° C. and humidity 90% RH. This is a comparison of the difference (Δtilt) between the maximum value of the tilt change at 58 mm from the center and the value when the steady state is reached. At this time, the Δtilt is within 0.9 degrees, preferably within 0.75 degrees, and more preferably 0.5 degrees or less.

  This measuring method is as follows. A reflective film is sputter-deposited on the signal surface side of an optical disk substrate having a diameter of 120 mm and a thickness of 1.1 mm, and a surface protective film is bonded thereon, and a spacer is sandwiched between the optical disks so that they do not come into contact with each other. After being left in the environment for more than 2 days, it is measured regularly every 12 hours, and when the rate of change before and after radial tilt becomes 5% or less, it is measured with a 3D shape measuring instrument DLD-3000U manufactured by Japan EM Co., Ltd. The radial tilt was evaluated and used as the initial radial tilt. Next, the optical disk for which the initial radial tilt was evaluated was left for 72 hours in a constant temperature and humidity chamber at 30 ° C. and a humidity of 90% RH. Thereafter, the optical disk was moved to an environment of 23 ° C. and humidity 50% RH, and the radial tilt of the optical disk was measured with the above apparatus over time (every 30 minutes). The value indicating the maximum value of the measured values obtained was taken as the maximum value of radial tilt. The difference between the measured maximum value of the radial tilt and the initial radial tilt was taken as Δradial tilt.

  When preparing the thermoplastic resin of this invention, arbitrary methods are employ | adopted. For example, after mixing polycarbonate resin and polycaprolactone into a mixed solution, the solvent is distilled off, the solvent is distilled off and then melted into pellets using a vent-type extruder, or the polycarbonate resin and polycaprolactone are mixed into a super mixer or tumbler. A method of mixing with a Nauta mixer or the like and pelletizing with a twin screw ruder or the like is used. Moreover, additives, such as a stabilizer, antioxidant, a light stabilizer, a coloring material, a sliding material, a mold release agent, can also be added as needed. Furthermore, in the extrusion process (pelletizing process) for obtaining a pellet-like polycarbonate resin for use in injection molding, compression molding, and injection compression molding, foreign matters are removed by passing through a sintered metal filter having a filtration accuracy of 10 μm in the molten state. Is preferred. In any case, it is necessary for the raw material resin before injection molding to keep the content of foreign matters, impurities, solvents, etc. as low as possible.

The amount of the phosphorus compound is preferably 0.0001 to 0.05% by weight, more preferably 0.0005 to 0.02% by weight, and 0.001 to 0.01% by weight in the thermoplastic resin composition.

Examples thereof include phenolic antioxidants, specifically, for example, triethylene glycol-bis (3- (3-tert-butyl-5-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) propionate), 1,6 -Hexanediol-bis (3- (3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) propionate), pentaerythritol-tetrakis (3- (3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) Propionate), octadecyl-3- (3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) propionate, 1,3,5-trimethyl-2,4,6-tris (3,5-di-tert-butyl) -4-hydroxybenzyl) benzene, N, N-hexamethylenebis (3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-hydride) Cinnamide), 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-benzylphosphonate-diethyl ester, tris (3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl) isocyanurate, 3,9-bis {1 , 1-dimethyl-2- [β- (3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl) propionyloxy] ethyl} -2,4,8,10-tetraoxaspiro (5,5) undecane, etc. Is mentioned. The range of the preferable addition amount of these antioxidants is 0.0001 to 0.05 weight% in a thermoplastic resin composition.

  When manufacturing an optical disk substrate from the thermoplastic resin composition, an injection molding machine (including an injection compression molding machine) is used. Although generally used as this injection molding machine, from the viewpoint of suppressing the generation of carbides and improving the reliability of the disk substrate, the adhesion to the resin as a cylinder or screw is low, and the corrosion resistance and resistance It is preferable to use a material made of a material that exhibits wear.

  As conditions for injection molding, the cylinder temperature is preferably 260 to 450 ° C, more preferably 280 to 380 ° C, and the mold temperature is preferably 50 to 180 ° C, more preferably 70 to 135 ° C. Can be obtained.

  The environment in the molding process is preferably as clean as possible in view of the object of the present invention. It is also important to take into consideration that the material used for molding is sufficiently dried to remove moisture, and that no retention that causes decomposition of the molten resin occurs.

  In the optical disk substrate of the present invention, it is necessary to form a reflective layer and / or a recording layer on one side. As a method for producing the inorganic thin films of the recording layer and the reflective layer, various thin film forming methods such as a known vacuum deposition method, PVD method such as sputtering method, or CVD method can be applied. However, it is preferable that the optical disk medium is manufactured under conditions where adhesion to the polymer substrate is particularly high in order not to cause peeling that occurs in a high temperature and high humidity environmental resistance test. For this purpose, sputtering is preferred.

  Further, a light transmissive cover layer is formed on the reflective layer and / or the recording layer. The light-transmitting cover layer is made of a material that transmits laser light. As such a material, a polycarbonate resin is preferably used. For example, a polycarbonate sheet formed by a melt extrusion method or a polycarbonate formed by a solution casting method. A casting film is mentioned. As a means for forming the light-transmitting cover layer, for example, a method of bonding a transparent plate such as a sheet or film made of polycarbonate on the recording layer with an adhesive or the like can be mentioned. Furthermore, this light-transmitting cover layer is limited to a thickness of 3 to 200 μm in order to keep coma aberration considerably small.

  The optical disk substrate of the present invention comprises a support substrate, a reflective layer formed on the substrate, and a cover layer of a light-transmitting polycarbonate film formed on the reflective layer. Laser light is emitted from the cover layer side. It is also preferably used as a substrate for high-density optical disks typified by an optical disk of a type that performs recording and / or reproduction upon incidence, such as a Blu-ray Disc (BD) or a hologram disk. In particular, in the case of Blu-ray Disc (recording type), it is created by forming a light reflecting layer, a recording layer consisting of a recording film and a recording film protective film, and a light transmissive cover layer on a 1.1 mm thick substrate. Is done. A plurality of these layers may be formed.

  For the adhesive used when forming the cover film, an ultraviolet curable polymer material may be used as a main component. In this case, the ultraviolet curable polymer material is preferably an acrylate copolymer having an ultraviolet curable group in a side chain, the ultraviolet curable group is an unsaturated group, and the acrylic acid The weight average molecular weight of the ester copolymer is preferably 100,000 or more. For example, a mixture of an acrylate copolymer having an ultraviolet curable group in the side chain and an ultraviolet curable polyfunctional monomer and / or oligomer is used as the ultraviolet curable polymer material. Alternatively, it may be a mixture of an acrylic ester copolymer having no ultraviolet curable group and an ultraviolet curable polyfunctional monomer and / or oligomer. In addition, the adhesive may be mainly composed of a mixture of a polymer component having no ultraviolet curable property and an ultraviolet curable polyfunctional monomer and / or oligomer. In any case, it is preferable that the material exhibits tackiness before curing and has strong adhesiveness and appropriate hardness after curing.

  In the case of a write-once optical disk, the recording film is a recording film on which a irreversible optical characteristic is changed or a concavo-convex shape is formed by irradiation with laser light. For example, the recording film is decomposed by heating by laser light irradiation, A cyanine-based, phthalocyanine-based, azo-based organic dye or the like that changes the optical constant and causes deformation of the substrate due to a volume change is used.

  In the case of a rewritable optical disc, the recording film is a material (phase change recording type) in which a reversible phase structure change between the amorphous state and the crystalline state of the substance caused by laser light irradiation, or perpendicular to the film surface This is a magnetic thin film (magneto-optical recording type) having a magneto-optic effect that has an easy magnetization direction in any direction and can record, reproduce, and erase information by creating an arbitrary inversion magnetic domain. Examples of the phase change recording film include GeSbTe, InSbTe, InSe, InTe, AsTeGe, TeOx-GeSn, TeSeSn, FeTe, SbSeBi, and BiSeGe that are chalcogenide materials. Although it is used, a film made of GeSbTe is preferable because of its stable operation during repeated recording / erasing. Examples of magneto-optical recording films include amorphous alloy thin films of rare earth elements and transition metal elements such as TbFe, TbFeCo, GdTbFe, NdDyFeCo, NdDyTbFeCo, NdFe, PrFe, and CeFe, and those utilizing exchange coupling. A two-layer film, an artificial lattice multilayer film such as Co / Pt or Co / Pd, or a CoPt alloy can be used.

In addition, it is preferable to use a dielectric material as the recording film protective film for sandwiching the recording film. Thereby, the difference in reflectance between the crystalline phase and the amorphous phase as a medium, and the magneto-optical effect can be enhanced. In this case, the dielectric material is preferably a material having a high refractive index n, that is, a material satisfying n ≧ 1.6, more preferably a material satisfying n ≧ 1.8. Eg, SiO-based, _{SiON-based, Ta 2 O 3, TiO 2} , Al 2 O 3, Y 2 O 3, CeO, La 2 O 3, In 2 O 3, GeO, GeO 2, PbO, SnO, SnO 2, Bi ₂ O ₃ , TeO ₂ WO ₂ , WO ₃ , Sc ₂ O ₃ , ZrO _{2 and} other oxides, nitrides such as TaN, AlN, SiN and AlSiN, ZnS, Sb ₂ S ₃ , CdS and In ₂ It is preferable to use a sulfide such as S ₃ , Ga ₂ S ₃ , GeS, SnS ₂ , PbS, Bi ₂ S ₃ , a mixed material thereof, a laminate thereof, or the like as the protective film.

  The light reflecting layer is preferably a material having higher reflectivity than the recording layer with respect to the laser beam of the drive head used for evaluation. Specifically, it is preferable to select a material in which the refractive index n and the extinction coefficient k, which are optical constants at the used laser light wavelength, satisfy n ≦ 3.5 and k ≧ 3.5. More preferably, n ≦ 2.5 and 4.5 ≦ k ≦ 8.5. With a medium manufactured under these conditions, the reproduction signal characteristics can be further improved.

  On the other hand, when recording a signal by heating with laser light, if the thermal conductivity of the light reflecting layer is too high, thermal diffusion is large and strong laser power is required. For this reason, in order to enable signal recording with a semiconductor laser having a power of 15 mW or less that is widely used at present, the thermal conductivity of the material used for the light reflection layer is 100 [W / (m · K)] or less. It is more preferable that it is 80 [W / (m · K)] or less.

As a material satisfying such conditions, one or more elements such as Au, Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, Tc, Re, Ru, Os, Ir, etc. as Al or Ag An alloy to which is added. In these alloys, if the amount of the additive element is less than 0.5 atomic%, the effect of the above-described decrease in heat conduction is small. This is disadvantageous. Therefore, the content of the additive element is preferably within the range of 0.5 to 20 atomic%. In particular, Ti, Zr, Hf, Ta, Cr, and Re are preferable in the specific element group in terms of enhancing durability of the metal reflective film itself. The film thickness range of these reflective layers is 10 to 500 nm, but preferably 30 to 200 nm, particularly in order to suppress the deterioration of the reproduction signal characteristics due to the decrease in reflectance and to enable recording at a laser power of 15 mW. Preferably it is 40-100 nm.
In the case of a read-only optical disc medium, only the light reflecting layer described above is formed on the substrate, but the same materials can be used.

  Since the thermoplastic resin composition comprising the specific polycarbonate resin and polycaprolactone of the present invention is excellent in low water absorption and moldability, the optical disk substrate, particularly an optical disk for a high-density optical disk, is small in warpage change due to environmental changes. It is suitably used as a substrate, and its industrial effect is exceptional. In particular, an optical disc using this optical disc substrate has a very good signal characteristic (jitter value) after environmental change, and its effectiveness as an optical disc is clear.

  Hereinafter, although an example is given and explained in detail, the present invention is not limited to this unless it exceeds the purpose. In the examples and comparative examples, “parts” is parts by weight. Evaluation was according to the following method.

Moreover, the value at which the change with time of the water absorption calculated by the following formula every 24 hours was less than 5% was defined as the saturated water absorption. The measured value was rounded off to the first decimal place.
Water absorption rate = {(measured weight every 24 hours) −W0} / W0 × 100 (%)

(8) Transferability The depth of the groove transferred from the stamper to the substrate was measured at a position with a radius of 40 mm using an atomic force microscope (SPI3800N manufactured by Seiko Denshi Kogyo). Transferability was determined by using a transfer rate represented by the following formula as an index, with transfer rates of 80% to 100% being ◯, 50% to less than 80% being Δ, and less than 50% being ×.
Transfer rate (%) = 100 × disc groove depth / stamper groove depth
