Abstract

A trench monitoring system (30) for imaging a light strip surface (12) is provided. The tape surface (12) includes a plurality of groove patterns (18) imprinted thereon. The trench monitoring system includes an optical sensor (32) directing a first beam of light onto the light strip surface (12) at a first angle of incidence such that the first light beam is directly reflected from the light strip surface (12) and by the optical sensor (32) ) imaging a first light source (38). The trench monitoring system (30) also includes directing a second beam of light onto the belt surface (12) at a second angle of incidence such that the second beam of light is diffracted from the belt surface (12) and imaged by the optical sensor (32) as A second light source (40) for diffracted light images. The trench monitoring system (30) is capable of generating electronic images of the trench pattern and the edges (20, 22) of the optical strip (10) simultaneously to ensure that the strip edges (20, 22) and the trench pattern meet parallelism requirements.

Description

technical field [0001] In at least one embodiment, the present invention relates to optical storage media, such as optical storage tapes. Background technique [0002] An optical recording medium is a digital storage medium onto which a pattern is marked and read by light, usually from a laser. Optical data recording media require a grooved structure on which recorded marks are placed. The grooves, or "tracks" as they are called in optical recording, are typically submicron in size and thus nearly impossible to see with a standard optical microscope. For example, a groove with a track pitch of about 320 nanometers presents the necessary surface features to the tracking servo system to allow the tracking servo's laser spot to lock onto the necessary surface features when reading and writing data. The groove structure must have a consistently high quality for the recording system to be reliable. One of the important parameters of the grooves in the ribbon is the height at w...
