본 발명은 이층 또는 그 이상의 정보 기록층을 갖는 광디스크에 관한 것으로서, 상세하게는 입사광의 온도에 따라 반사율 특성이 변하는 마스킹(masking)층을 갖는 광디스크에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an optical disc having two or more information recording layers, and more particularly, to an optical disc having a masking layer whose reflectance characteristics change depending on the temperature of incident light.

일반적으로 한 장의 광디스크에 기록되는 정보 기록 용량을 증대시키기 위한 일 방편으로 광디스크는 이층 또는 그 이상의 정보 기록층을 포함하도록 다층화되고 있다.In general, as one way to increase the information recording capacity recorded on one optical disc, the optical disc is multilayered to include two or more information recording layers.

종래의 이층 광디스크의 일 예를 도 1을 참조하여 설명한다. 도시된 바와 같이, 광이 조사되는 쪽으로부터, 투명한 제1기판(11), 정보 기록면을 갖는 제1기록층(13), 제1접합층(15), 스페이서(17), 제2접합층(19), 제2기록층(21) 및 제2기판(23)으로 구성된다.An example of a conventional two-layer optical disc will be described with reference to FIG. As shown, from the side to which light is irradiated, the transparent first substrate 11, the first recording layer 13 having the information recording surface, the first bonding layer 15, the spacer 17, and the second bonding layer ( 19), the second recording layer 21 and the second substrate 23. As shown in FIG.

제1기판(11)은 1mm 두께의 투명한 PVC로 되어 있으며, 입사광을 투과시킨다. 제1기록층(13)은 자외선 경화수지로 되어 있으며, 상기 제1기판(11)의 일측에 형성된다. 이 제1기록층(13)에는 트랙을 이루는 나선형의 랜드(13a)와, 그루브(13b)가 형성되어 있다. 상기 제1기록층(13)의 제1접합층(15)쪽 면(14)에는 입사광을 부분적으로 투과시킬 수 있도록 된 반투막이 형성되어 있다. 이 반투막으로는 ZnSe(zinc selenide), BiO(bismuth oxide), CdS(cadmium sulphide), CdTe(cadmium telluride), SiC(silicon carbide) 등이 제안된다. The first substrate 11 is made of transparent PVC having a thickness of 1 mm and transmits incident light. The first recording layer 13 is made of an ultraviolet curable resin and is formed on one side of the first substrate 11. In the first recording layer 13, spiral lands 13a and grooves 13b constituting tracks are formed. A semi-permeable membrane is formed on the surface 14 toward the first bonding layer 15 of the first recording layer 13 to partially transmit incident light. ZnSe (zinc selenide), BiO (bismuth oxide), CdS (cadmium sulphide), CdTe (cadmium telluride), SiC (silicon carbide) and the like are proposed as the semipermeable membrane.

또한, 상기 제2기록층(21)은 상기 제1기록층(13)과 동일한 구성을 가지며, 제2접합층(19)과 마주하는 면(20)은 대략 90%의 반사율을 갖는 반사층이 형성되어 있다. 상기 제1 및 제2접합층(15)(19)과 상기 스페이서(17)는 상기 제1기록층(13) 과 제2기록층(21)의 접합 및 사이 간격 유지를 위한 것으로 입사광을 투과시킨다. 상기 제2기판(23)은 투명한 PVC로 된 기판으로 상기 제2기록층(21)을 보호한다.In addition, the second recording layer 21 has the same configuration as the first recording layer 13, and the surface 20 facing the second bonding layer 19 is formed with a reflective layer having a reflectance of approximately 90%. It is. The first and second bonding layers 15 and 19 and the spacers 17 are for bonding the first recording layer 13 and the second recording layer 21 and maintaining the gap therebetween, and transmit incident light. . The second substrate 23 is a transparent PVC substrate to protect the second recording layer 21.

상기한 바와 같이, 구성된 광디스크에 기록된 정보의 재생은 제1기판(11) 쪽에서 입사되는 대물렌즈(3)에 의해 집속된 빔(1)을 이용하여 수행된다. 즉, 대물렌즈(3)의 포커스 위치를 조정하여 집속된 빔(1)이 제1기록층(11)에 맺히도록 하여 제1기록층(11)에 기록된 정보를 재생하고, 대물렌즈(3)의 포커스 위치를 조정하여 제2기록층(19)에 빔(1')이 집속되도록 하여 제2기록층(19)에 기록된 정보를 재생할 수 있다.As described above, the reproduction of the information recorded on the configured optical disc is performed by using the beam 1 focused by the objective lens 3 incident on the first substrate 11 side. That is, by adjusting the focus position of the objective lens 3 so that the focused beam 1 is formed on the first recording layer 11, the information recorded in the first recording layer 11 is reproduced, and the objective lens 3 ), The beam 1 'is focused on the second recording layer 19 so that the information recorded on the second recording layer 19 can be reproduced.

상기한 바와 같이, 구성된 광디스크는 2층의 기록층(13)(19)을 포함하여 단층 기록 구조를 갖는 광디스크에 비하여 정보 기록밀도를 높일 수 있다는 이점이 있다. 반면, 종래의 광디스크는 상기 제1기록층(13)의 제1접합층(15)쪽 면(14)에 반투막을 형성하여 입사광을 부분적으로 투과 반사시킴으로써, 상기 두 기록층(13)(19)에 맺히는 광스폿의 광파워가 저하되는 단점이 있다.As described above, the configured optical disc has the advantage that the information recording density can be increased as compared with the optical disc having the single-layer recording structure including the two recording layers 13 and 19. On the other hand, in the conventional optical disk, the two recording layers 13 and 19 are formed by partially transflecting incident light by forming a semi-permeable membrane on the side 14 of the first bonding layer 15 of the first recording layer 13. There is a disadvantage that the optical power of the light spot formed in the lowering.

따라서, 본 발명은 상기한 바와 같은 점을 감안하여 안출된 것으로서, 각 기록막에 맺히는 광스폿의 파워가 저하되지 않도록 소정 온도 이상에서 입사광을 반사시키고 그 이하의 온도에서는 입사광을 투과시키는 마스킹층을 반사막 사이에 구비한 다층 구조의 광디스크를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.Accordingly, the present invention is conceived in view of the above-described point, and a masking layer for reflecting incident light at a predetermined temperature or more and transmitting incident light at a temperature below that in order not to lower the power of the light spot formed on each recording film. It is an object of the present invention to provide an optical disk having a multilayer structure provided between reflective films.

또한, 본 발명은 기판과, 상기 기판에 적층 형성되며, 집속된 광에 의해 정보신호의 기록과 재생이 이루어지는 복수의 기록막과; 상기 기록막들 사이 및 상기 기록막과 상기 기판 사이에 배치되며, 입사광의 온도에 따라 선택적으로 마스킹되어 소정 온도 이상에서 반사부재로 변하여 입사광을 반사시키고, 소정 온도 이하에서는 입사광을 투과시키는 적어도 하나의 마스킹층과; 상기 마스킹층을 투과한 광이 투과되며, 상기 복수의 기록막들 사이 간격을 유지하는 스페이서층;을 포함하는 것을 특징으로 한다.In addition, the present invention provides a substrate, comprising: a plurality of recording films stacked on the substrate and configured to record and reproduce information signals by focused light; At least one disposed between the recording films and between the recording film and the substrate and selectively masked according to the temperature of incident light to change into a reflecting member at a predetermined temperature or more to reflect incident light, and to transmit incident light below a predetermined temperature A masking layer; And a spacer layer through which the light passing through the masking layer is transmitted and maintaining a gap between the plurality of recording films.
