Abstract
A method to produce improvements in the shape of three-dimensional features displayed in optical recording structures, particularly in such structures displaying features of differing dimensional characteristics. The shape improvements include reductions in berm height and width, dual level data marks and tracking guides, and land areas projecting above or into the surface of the recording structure. The method includes dual and/or dithered beam writing onto the structure and improved composition of the active layer of the structure.
