Abstract:
1. A method for producing optical recording media, comprising the steps of: aligning opposing support surfaces such that the opposing support surfaces are substantially parallel; disposing each of at least two or more substrates on a respective opposing support surface or the at least two or more substrates together on a single opposing support surface, the substrates having respective inner and outer longitudinal surfaces; aligning the substrates relative to one or more reference positions; positioning the substrates to secure a state of parallelism between the outer longitudinal surfaces of the substrates which is coincident with the parallelism provided by the opposing support surfaces; positioning the substrates to create a gap between the inner longitudinal surfaces of the substrates while maintaining the secured state of parallelism of the outer longitudinal surfaces of the substrates; and dispensing a requisite amount of liquid to provide a medium between the inner longitudinal surfaces of the substrates, wherein during dispensing the liquid is in contact with inner longitudinal surfaces of the at least two substrates.
