Abstract
Recording media comprising films of a polydialdehyde are suitable for recording information with electron beams.
Claims12
A medium for electron beam recording which comprises a film of a polymer having the formula ##EQU4## wherein R is H or ##EQU5## and R' is H or ##EQU6## and X is selected from the group consisting of branched or straight chain alkylene groups of 1 - 10 carbon atoms, saturated or unsaturated cycloalkylene groups and arylene groups of up to 10 carbon atoms and an electrically conductive layer on a support.
In the method of recording information whereby a modulated beam of electrons is scanned across the surface of a resist material which becomes more soluble in a developer solvent when impinged upon by a beam of electrons and the resist material is developed with a developer solvent so as to move the solubilized portion thereof, the improvement which comprises employing as the resist material a film of a polymer having the formula ##EQU7## wherein R is H or ##EQU8## and R' is H or ##EQU9## and X is selected from the group consisting of branched or straight chain alkylene groups of 1 - 10 carbon atoms, saturated or unsaturated cycloalkylene groups and arylene groups of up to 10 carbon atoms and an electrically conductive layer on a support.
