Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
141 words
An optical recording medium comprising a substrate and a recording layer made of one or more metals and/or semi-metals selected from the group consisting of Te, Sn, In, Au, Pt, Se, As, Bi, Al, Ga, Ge, Mo, Sb, Pb, Ti, laminates of said metals with semi-metals, mixtures of said metals with semi-metals, sulfides of said metals, oxides of said metals, metal fluorides, metal silicides, and metal nitrides and on which data can be recorded with a laser beam, wherein a plasma polymerization layer is formed on at least an upper surface of said recording layer and is formed by a monomer having the following formula: ##STR2## wherein A' is a hydrogen atom and B is any member selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom and one of an alkyl or an alkenyl group having one or more carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
141 words
An optical recording medium comprising a substrate and a recording layer made of one or more metals and/or semi-metals selected from the group consisting of Te, Sn, In, Au, Pt, Se, As, Bi, Al, Ga, Ge, Mo, Sb, Pb, Ti, laminates of said metals with semi-metals, mixtures of said metals with semi-metals, sulfides of said metals, oxides of said metals, metal fluorides, metal silicides, and metal nitrides and on which data can be recorded with a laser beam, wherein a plasma polymerization layer is formed on at least an upper surface of said recording layer and is formed by a monomer having the following formula: ##STR2## wherein A' is a hydrogen atom and B is any member selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom and one of an alkyl or an alkenyl group having one or more carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
61 words
An optical recording medium as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a second optical recording medium identical to the optical recording medium of claim 1 and bonded to the optical recording medium of claim 1 by means of an adhesive layer provided between the plasma polymerization layers formed on the upper surfaces of the recording layers of the two recording media.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
25 words
An optical recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein the thickness of the plasma polymerization layer is about 50 Å to about 0.2 μm.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
33 words
An optical recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein the plasma polymerization layer is formed from a compound that has a vapor pressure of or about 10 -4 Torr at 20° C.
