Shift multiplexing with spherical reference waves.

چکیده
Shift multiplexing is a holographic storage method particularly suitable for the implementation of holographic disks. We characterize the performance of shift-multiplexed memories by using a spherical wave as the reference beam. We derive the shift selectivity, the cross talk, the exposure schedule, and the storage density of the method. We give experimental results to verify the theoretical predictions.

Shift-Peristrophic Multiplexing for High Density Holographic Data Storage
Holographic data storage is a promising technology that provides very large data storage capacity, and the multiplexing method plays a significant role in increasing this capacity. Various multiplexing methods have been previously researched. In the present study, we propose a shift-peristrophic multiplexing technique that uses spherical reference waves, and experimentally verify that this meth...
متن کاملHolographic storage using shift multiplexing.
We demonstrate theoretically and experimentally a new multiplexing method for volume holographic storage using a single reference beam that is composed of multiple plane waves or is a spherical wave. We multiplex the holograms by shifting the recording material or the recording/readout head. The volume properties of the recording medium allow selective readout of holograms stored in successive ...
متن کاملFolded shift multiplexing.
Shift multiplexing is a holographic recording method that uses a spherical reference wave. We extend the principle to a thin slab of holographic material that acts as a waveguide. Total internal reflection folds the reference spherical beam in one dimension. We demonstrate that the shift selectivity with the folded spherical beam is independent of the slab thickness but depends instead on the n...

متن کاملFundamentals of Wave Propagation
In this chapter and Chapter 4, waves are considered in 3-D, in general. However, in some applications such as in integrated optics in which propagation of waves on a surface is often considered, 2-D waves are of interest. For example, see Chapter 19 on dense wavelength division multiplexing. Two-dimensional equations are simpler because one of the space variables, say, y is omitted from the equ...
