A non-leaching adhesive system and its use in a liquid immersion objective
for immersion-writing of masters for optical discs are disclosed. The
adhesive system comprises at least one monomer, selected from among the
group of acrylate and methacrylate monomers, allylic monomers, norbornene
monomers, hybrid monomers thereof, containing chemically different
polymeriazble groups, and multifunctional thiol monomers, provided that
said thiol is used in combination with at least one of said non-thiol
monomers; and a polymerization initiator. At least one of said monomers,
not being a thiol, is provided with at least two functional polymerizable
groups to obtain a crosslinked polymer network. The polymerization
initiator is preferably an initiator that can be activated both thermally
and with UV radiation. The adhesive system may further contain a reactive
diluent. Further the use of the present adhesive system in mounting a
liquid immersion objective is disclosed.
