BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for inexpensively manufacturing a high density optical disc master having a high S / N ratio.

Above all, an optical disk having a V groove is a technology that enables a track density of 1 μm pitch. Further, in the case of the V groove, since the groove processing on the optical disk master can be performed by precision machining, it can be manufactured at low cost.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION In order to enable precision machining of an optical disk master, at least the surface of the master must be made of a material that can be easily processed. However, such metals are susceptible to oxidation except for expensive gold. That is, the surface of the optical disk master whose surface was oxidized was poor and the surface was rough, and the optical disk manufactured from it had a very high noise level.

The drawings are process diagrams showing a manufacturing process for explaining a method for manufacturing an optical disc master according to the present invention. Step 1 is copper plating, 2 is surface grinding, 3 is V groove cutting, 4 is photoresist coating, 5 is laser cutting to form pits in the resist, 6 is development, and 7 is dry etching to form pits on the copper master surface. Engraving with, 8 is a resist cleaning with acetone, 9 is a residual resist by oxygen ashing, 10 is a reduction process, and 11 is an optical disk manufacturing process by injection.

In step 1, materials other than copper plating are possible. However, since the V-groove cutting in the step 3 is a precision cutting process, the material of the master surface must be a soft material having a hardness equal to or lower than that of copper.
(The metal is Cu, In, Sn, alkali or alkaline earth metal)
And I can only think about money. Although any material can be used for V-groove cutting, the use of gold loses the characteristics of an inexpensive high-density optical disc master, which is not suitable for the present invention.

In step 3, the surface of the optical disk master made of the above-mentioned low hardness metal is subjected to precision machining, and V groove cutting with a track width of 1 μm is the best as groove processing for tracking. Further, since a simple diamond cutting tool is sufficient for V-groove cutting, mass production is possible at low cost.

Steps 4 to 9 in the production of the V-groove optical disc master are processes for producing the read-only high-density optical disc master. Among them, the oxygen ashing in the step 9 forcibly oxidizes the metal on the surface of the master, and particularly the metal recited in claim 3 is easily affected by the oxidation, and an oxide film is formed on the surface of the master to roughen the surface roughness.

A master for an optical disc on which a recording film is formed does not include steps 4 to 9, but by the time the disc is manufactured in step 11, a thin oxide film is formed on the surface of the master and the surface roughness becomes rough. I will end up.

However, when the master surface reduction treatment, which is the manufacturing method of the present invention, is used, the oxide film is restored to the original metal, and the surface roughness is also smoothed. That is, since the surface properties of the optical disc manufactured using the master disc obtained by the present invention are kept smooth, the reproduction noise is very low, and particularly in the reproduction-only optical disc, the noise is suppressed by 3 dB or more.

Among the reduction treatments, the plasma treatment using a reducing gas is the most effective, and the noise suppression of 3dB mentioned above could be stably achieved. However, when a gas other than hydrogen gas was used as the reducing gas, the master surface was sputtered during plasma processing and the pit edge was slackened, and the reproduction output tended to decrease by about 1 dB. Therefore, it was possible to eliminate this reduction in reproduction output by using hydrogen gas with a low sputter rate.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION As described above, according to the present invention, by reducing the surface of the optical disc master, the oxidized master surface can be reduced to the original metal and smoothed. The reproduction noise of the optical disc manufactured using the master disc obtained in the present invention can be suppressed low.
