  • Patent number: 8036072
    Abstract: A holographic recording and reproduction system includes a servo optical path, which is used to provide a servo mechanism, so that holographic interference fringes can be stored continuously into a holographic recording medium, and when the reproduction signals are desired, they can be fetched and obtained swiftly and accurately by making use of the servo mechanism. In addition, the servo light spot of the servo optical path is located on the optical axis of an object lens, thus reducing the image aberrations produced and raising the quality of the signals read for the servo track searching. Moreover, the light intensity distribution of the reference beams reflected by the holographic recording medium is monitored and controlled, as such realizing the analysis and adjustment of the relative distance and inclination angle between the holographic recording and reproduction system and the holographic recording medium.

  • Patent number: 7848204
    Abstract: A holographic storage and regeneration system includes a holographic recording medium, a light source, a spatial light modulator, and a conjugate servo light guidance portion. The light source generates a signal light and a reference light. The spatial light modulator modulates the incident signal light and makes it incident onto the medium along the incident direction of the signal light. The guidance portion guides a reference light to incident onto the medium in one direction and reflects it in another direction. A reference light and a signal light interfere with each other to produce a holographic interference fringe. The reflected reference light is guided into a first image sensor to be used to analyze the incident angle of the reference light. When the reference light incidents onto the fringe of the medium through the guidance portion in a reverse direction relative to another direction, a conjugate regenerated light is generated.

  • Patent number: 6717331
    Abstract: This specification discloses a piezoelectric ultrasonic motor with multi-layer thin disks. A buzzer disk made of a piezoelectric material is supplied with an alternate voltage to produce alternately expanding and shrinking deformation. An elastic vibration disk in connection with the buzzer disk produces standing waves to transport kinetic energy to the exterior. A driving module symmetric in the vertical or horizontal direction is also formed. This does not only reduce the abrasion among the components, but also provide homogeneous forward and reverse driving forces.
