Eugen Pavel is a Romanian scientist and the claimed inventor of the Hyper CD-ROM.

Pavel graduated with a physics degree from the University of Bucharest in 1976.[1] He was awarded the Romanian Academy Prize in 1991 and obtained his doctorate in Physics from the Romanian Institute of Atomic Physics in 1992.[2]

He won the "Prix International de l’Organisation Mondiale de la Presse Periodique" and a gold medal at the November 1999

EUREKA Contest in Brussels for inventions that led to the creation of the Hyper CD-ROM. Dr. Pavel has published more than 40 books and articles, and he is the holder of 62 patents and patent applications.[1]

Hyper CD-ROM

The Hyper CD-ROM is a proposed 3D optical data storage medium which uses

EB[4]
on a single disc. Despite its bold claims the technology has not been shown as a working prototype in the over twenty years since its announcement.

The Hyper CD-ROM technology is patented in 21 countries: the USA, Canada, Japan, Israel and 17 European states.[1]

In an interview about his work on the Hyper CD-ROM, Dr. Pavel stated that "the research for this project is 100% personal, [and] so is the support for experiments."[5]
