چکیده

A general strategy for fabricating thick, optically flat photopolymer recording media with high dynamic range (M/#) that exhibit low levels of recording-induced Bragg detuning for holographic data storage is presented. In particular, media with M/# values as high as 42 in 1-mm-thick formats are obtained. We believe that these results are the first demonstration of a holographic storage medium with a dynamic range of this magnitude. In addition, we report the holographic recording and recovery of high-capacity (480-kbit) digital data pages in these media, further illustrating their data-storage capabilities.

Experimental study of the effects of a six-level phase mask on a digital holographic storage system.

We measure the M/# and the bit-error rate of a digital holographic storage system with a 4f optical arrangement for three configurations: recording at the Fourier plane with and without a phase mask and recording outside the Fourier plane without a phase mask. Unexpectedly, no significant change in the dynamic range was observed when a phase mask was used to record in thick crystals. However, w...

Correlation-Based Multiplexing of Complex Amplitude Data Pages in a Holographic Storage System Using Digital Holographic Techniques

Holographic recording media can store the amplitude and the phase, or the complex amplitude, of a beam on the basis of holography. Owing to this characteristic, digital data can be encoded onto the complex amplitude of a signal beam in holographic data storage. However, most of conventional holographic storage systems encode digital data onto the amplitude alone because there are difficulties f...

Cavity enhanced image recording for holographic data storage

Previously, we proposed and experimentally demonstrated that optical cavities can be employed in recording and readout of plane wave holograms to improve data rates in Holographic Data Storage Systems (HDSS). However, there were some concerns about whether these techniques would be applicable to page based HDSS where signal beams are image bearing and have multiple wave vectors. We have consequ...

Storage density of shift-multiplexed holographic memory.

The storage density of shift-multiplexed holographic memory is calculated and compared with experimentally achieved densities by use of photorefractive and write-once materials. We consider holographic selectivity as well as the recording material's dynamic range (M/#) and required diffraction efficiencies in formulating the calculations of storage densities, thereby taking into account all maj...

INVESTIGATIONS ON HIGH DENSITY HOLOGRAPHIC DATA STORAGE AND CONTENT- ADDRESSABLE SEARCH by BHARGAB DAS

Holographic digital data storage systems are an exciting topic of wide spread research, and have been investigated by many research groups and companies for the next-generation of disk-based optical storage systems. Storage systems based on volume holography inherently have the characteristics of high storage density, fast data transfer rate, short random access time, and content-addressable se...
