Blu-ray discs

Blu-ray disc, computer artwork. Blu-ray discs work on a similar principle to CDs and DVDs. They store data by reflecting laser light onto a receiver. Unlike these earlier formats though, they use blue laser light, which has a shorter wavelength, enabling data to be stored more effectively. This, together with other innovations, allows a single layer disc to store 25 gigabytes of data. A conventional compact disc stores less than a gigabyte

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Blu-ray discs, a technological marvel that revolutionized data storage. Created using computer artwork, these discs operate on a similar principle to CDs and DVDs but with remarkable advancements. The image highlights the sophisticated design of these optical discs, which store data by reflecting laser light onto a receiver. What sets Blu-ray discs apart from their predecessors is their utilization of blue laser light instead of red or infrared. With its shorter wavelength, this intense blue light enables more efficient data storage. Combined with other groundbreaking innovations, it allows a single layer disc to hold an astounding 25 gigabytes of information – an exponential leap compared to the meager capacity offered by conventional compact discs. In this visually stunning illustration, Science Photo Library captures the essence of cutting-edge technology and multiple layers involved in creating Blu-ray discs. Each element within the composition symbolizes progress and advancement in data storage capabilities. This thought-provoking image serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of pushing boundaries in science and technology.
