Optical Data Storage refers to the science and technology of recording and readout of digital information using laser light . Compact Audio Discs ( CDs ) and Digital Versatile Discs ( DVDs ) are examples of media that store digital music and video , which can subsequently be played back with the help of a sharply-focused laser beam .
The Optical Data Storage Graduate Student Scholarship was established under the leadership of Masud Mansuripur , Professor and Chair of Optical Data Storage at the Wyant College of Optical Sciences . Also contributing to this endowment were several faculty members , research scientists , and industry partners , whose participation attests to the value of advancing innovation in the field of Optical Data Storage .
