Abstract: An optical head for a hologram optical apparatus and a method of operating the same are provided. The optical head for the hologram optical apparatus includes a reference light unit for guiding reference light, a signal light unit for guiding signal light, and a light source unit for providing 1 the reference light and the signal light to the reference light unit and the signal light unit, wherein the reference light unit and the signal light unit are stacked. The signal light unit includes: a plurality of optical waveguides stacked sequentially; composite hologram optical elements and lighting hologram optical elements disposed on the plurality of optical waveguides; an optical modulator for modulating light output from the plurality of the optical waveguides; and a lens for condensing light output from the optical modulator onto a recording layer.

Abstract: A hologram recording apparatus is provided, including: a coherent light source; a beam splitter which splits a beam emitted from the coherent light source into a signal beam and a reference beam; a signal beam forming unit including a first optical element which splits the signal beam into a plurality of sub signal beams and deflects the plurality of sub signal beams in different directions. The signal beam forming unit further directs the plurality of sub signal beams onto a hologram recording medium. The recording apparatus also includes a reference beam forming unit which directs the reference onto a location on the hologram recording medium which overlaps with locations on the hologram recording medium on which the plurality of sub signal beams are incident.
