Metallized information carrying discs
First Claim
1. A coded information carrying structure capable of being electronically decoded comprising(1) a base,(2) a first layer of an electrically conductive or electromagnetic radiation reflective layer adhered to at least one surface of said base, said layer having coded information in the form of depressions in said layer having been vertically displaced a distance of from 0.03 to 10.0 micrometers, with said first layer having ruptures or necking on the sides of the depressions, and(3) an insulating or transparent protective layer over said first layer.

1. A coded information carrying structure capable of being electronically decoded comprising
(1) a base, (2) a first layer of an electrically conductive or electromagnetic radiation reflective layer adhered to at least one surface of said base, said layer having coded information in the form of depressions in said layer having been vertically displaced a distance of from 0.03 to 10.0 micrometers, with said first layer having ruptures or necking on the sides of the depressions, and (3) an insulating or transparent protective layer over said first layer.
- 22. A two-sided information carrying structure comprising two bases, each base having a first layer of an electrically conductive or electromagnetic radiation reflective layer adhered to one surface of each base, said first layers having coded information in the form of depressions in said layer having been vertically displaced a distance of from 0.03 to 10.0 micrometers, with said first layers having ruptures or necking on the sides of the depressions, said first layers being adhered together.

28. A process for forming an information bearing article which comprises embossing coded information which may be electronically decoded onto a multilayered article comprising
(a) a base having at least one thermoplastic surface and adhered onto said surface, (b) an electrically conductive layer or electromagnetic radiation reflective layer to form a coded information bearing surface on said layer, said coded information being formed by the vertical displacement of areas of said layer to a depth of 0.03 to 10.0 micrometers with said layer having ruptures or necking on the side of said depression.
