  • Patent number: 7576900
    Abstract: A system and a method for holographic storage mainly involve forming a holographic interference pattern in a holographic recording medium. The holographic storage system utilizes a light source to emit a coherent beam. The coherent beam is irradiated to a first reflector to form a divergent beam. The divergent beam is then irradiated to a second reflector to form collimating beams (a signal beam and a reference beam). The signal beam goes through a spatial light modulator (SLM) and is modulated by the SLM. After that, the reference beam and the modulated signal beam are irradiated to a convergent unit, and are directed to the holographic recording medium for forming the holographic interference pattern. The holographic storage system that the light source is split into a signal beam and a reference beam by a set of reflectors according to the reflection principle without involving refraction may employ wavelength multiplexing.
