ATRIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY A Presentation On Fluorescent Multi-Layer Disc Internal guide Presented by Mr. Lakshmisagar Nagadatta.P
WHAT IS FMD? • Fluorescent Multilayer disc is a new technology developed by Constellation 3D Inc. • It stores digital data in three dimensions. • It is a readable and re-writable disc. • It is an optical data storage disc, similar in size CD-ROMs And DVDs.
NEED OF FMD? • Increased disc Capacity • Quick parallel access and retrieval information. • Media tolerances. • Usage Flexibility.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE The FMDs works on the phenomenon of PHOTOCHROMISM. • The selection of fluorescent material. • Obtain fluorescent properties. • Simulation and Emission. • Filtration and Finish.
TECHNOLOGICAL PROCESS OF MANUFACTURE HOT STAMPING:- • Pressing of sheets. • Formation of layer. • Filling the pits. • Pressing of informational layers.
FMD RECORDING • Technology Used:- WORM(Write Once Read Many) • Two Rules to be followed while recording. • The write laser should able to turn the fluorescence on or off • Threshold power of laser for recording and less power for reading
FMD READ DEVICE • Reading process is carried out with the help of a photosensitive element. • Device can read low-power fluorescence of 10 MHz. • Reading speed up to 1GB/sec. • Mechanical speed of the derive is 450 times lower than that of DVD.
DEVELOPMENTS • First generation FMDs were to use 650 nm red lasers, yielding roughly 140 GB per disc. • Second and third generation FMDs were to use 405 nm blue lasers, giving capacities of up to a terabyte. • A newly formed company called D Data Inc. acquired the patent portfolio of Constellation 3D in 2003, and plans to reintroduce the technology under the new name of Digital Multilayer Disk (DMD).
APPLICATIONS • Data warehouses. • E-commerce related data mining. • Storage of very high detailed archive of maps. • PVR (Priya Village Road show), HDTV. • Ability to store a large amount of data in uncompressed format.
ADVANTAGES • Prevents problem of interference since it uses an incoherent fluorescent light. • Compatible with CD and DVD formats with more storage area and faster access. • Fluorescent technology do not require special manufacturing conditions. • Cost of production of FMD is relatively cheap. • It consists multiple data layers, Capacity of each data layer is 4.7 GB
CONCLUSION • Man’s need for additional storage space is increasing . • The FMD Digital Cinema disc has the potential to provide a secure, removable, single disc distribution method. • The FMD can provide us with a staggering 140 GB of storage space seems to be an enticing solution for the storage- hungry masses.
