Compact Disc (CD):-- 650/700MB
It is with us for over 20 yrs.
Wavelength of laser which reads data: 780nm
Color of laser: Red
2nd GENERATION :
Digital versatile disc (DVD):-- 4.7GB
It offers high quality sound and video than CD.
Wavelength of laser which reads data: 650nm
Color of laser: Red
HISTORY
3RD Generation:
Blu-ray disc (BD):-- 25/50 GB
Next generation optional disc format.
Developed by blu-ray association (which includes Apple,
Hitachi, HP, LG, Panasonic, Pioneer, Philips,
Samsung, Sharp, Sony).
Wavelength of laser that reads data: 405nm
Color of laser: Blue-violet which was developed by SHUJI
NAKAMURA at NICHIA COPERATION.
The Name
The blu-ray name is the combination of
“blue”, for color of the laser that is used
and “ray” for the optical ray.

THE TECHNOLOGY
So, in blu-ray disc:
Pit size-- 0.15 microns (more than twice as
small as the pits on DVD).
Track pitch– 0.32 microns
laser needed:-- blue-violet laser (450nm)
Data transfer rate: 36Mbps

BLU-RAY ‘S DURABILITY
ADVANTAGE
Various hard coating technologies make Blu ray
disc most durable and family-friendly.
Hard coating technology provides resistances to:
– Finger prints
– Marks
– Scratches
– Dust
Much more ROBUST than today’s polycarbonate-
based CD/DVD’s (and HD DVD’s).
Blu-ray Density Advantage
Higher density
enables better data
seek times.
Shorter to travel for
same amount of
data results in the
faster data seek.
Better for random
access of data.
On Guard
Blu-ray discs are better armed than
current DVD’s. They come equipped with
a secure encryption system – a unique
ID that protected against video piracy
and copyright infringement.
Do More With…
More capacity , Density and
Performance.
More Industry Support/Consumer
Reach.
More Durable.
More interactive user experience.
More flexible content protection.
