Abstract:We have developed a new coaxial interference method for the next-generation storage system. A signal beam and a reference beam are coaxially arranged and focused into a holographic medium using a bifocal lens. We can easily downsize the system because the optics is very simple. The reference beam is focused on the mirror surface of the medium, and the signal beam is defocused on this surface. A semicircular reference pattern is used to select normal playback or phase conjugate playback in a reproducing process… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
