Abstract
A record carrier for information, for example video and/or audio information, in the form of a disk-shaped carrier substrate provided with an optical structure in accordance with the information is described. By making the optical structure radiation-reflecting and the substrate radiation-transmitting, while the surface of the substrate more remote from the optical structure forms both the entrance face and the exit face for the read radiation, and by coating a surface of the optical structure more remote from the substrate with an additional layer, a simple record carrier is obtained which is well protected against dust particles and damage.
