Holographic Storage Physics 496 Michael Atkinson
Why Holographic Storage? • Storage Density • media stores data in whole volume • Speed • parses many bits at once • Reliability • Good shelf life • High number of write cycles Michael Atkinson
Outline • Holography Concepts • Refractive index modulation • Storing data Michael Atkinson
Types of Holograms • Transmission Hologram • Can be used to store data • Uses coherent light • Reflection Hologram • The kind you find on credit cards • Uses white light Michael Atkinson
Holography vs Photography • Black and white photograph • Intensity • Color photograph • Intensity and wavelength • Hologram • Intensity, phase, and sometimes wavelength Michael Atkinson
Review of Interference Michael Atkinson

Qualitative Explanation of Storage Reference beam Object image Resultant pattern Stored in film Michael Atkinson
Qualitative Explanation of Reconstruction Reflection Reference beam Stored in film Michael Atkinson
Photorefractive effect • Electrons gain energy from light • Leave Valence band, can move freely • Diffuse toward dark areas • When beams removed, electrons settle and we have internal net electric fields • Index of refraction changed due to electro-optic effect Michael Atkinson
