The invention relates to an information carrier comprising a layer (L) for storing data, said layer forming a light-guide having an internal face (IF) having placed thereon a matrix of indentations (ID1, ID2), said indentations (ID1) being shaped so as to deviate part of an input light beam (ILB) applied to said layer towards a first edge (E1) of said information carrier along a first direction (d1), the presence of an indentation reflecting a stored data having a first state, the absence of an indentation reflecting a stored data having a second state. The invention also relates to a reading system for reading this information carrier.
