UVLBR

Ultra Violet Laser Beam Recorder

Developed in 1994 in collaboration with Time Warner and Toshiba, principal designers of the DVD specification, it was the first DVD mastering system proven in a production environment. The UV LBR is capable of switching between DVD and CD mastering at the touch of a button. The shorter wavelength laser brings significant advantages to the CD mastering process. By using an elliptical recording spot it is possible to maintain DVD resolution along the length of the track, which results in lower jitter and higher I3 amplitude.
