OPTICAL DISC AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME

Conventionally, in making a double-sided optical disc by attaching recording substrates to each other via an ultraviolet curable adhesive layer, there was a problem that the ultraviolet curable adhesive layer was slow to cure. It is thought that this is because the out gases leached from the recording substrate disturbed the cure reaction of the adhesive layer. In contrast, in the optical disc of the present disclosure, it is possible to cure the adhesive layer in a short time in attaching the recording substrates to each other via the ultraviolet curable adhesive layer, by providing a gas barrier layer at an attachment surface of a substrate to inhibit out gases from leaching from the substrate to the ultraviolet curable adhesive layer.
