Cross talk in resonant holographic memories

Kehan Tian, George Barbastathis

Published Apr 30, 2004• 7 citations

Abstract

We analyze cross talk in resonant holographic memories and derive the conditions under which resonance improves storage quality. We also carry out the analysis for both plane-wave and apodized Gaussian reference beams.

Cross talk in holographic memories with lensless phase-conjugate holograms

Jideog Kim, Sukhan Lee, Hong‐Seok Lee +1 more

Recently holographic memory with lensless phase-conjugate holograms has attracted much attention because it opens up the possibility of compact holographic memories. We investigate cross-talk noise in compact holographic memories with angular multiplexing. It turns out that the optimum angular separation is the same as that for the Fourier plane hologram in the leading order and that the noise-to-signal ratio is independent of the positions in the output plane, similar to the case of the image plane hologram.

Optimization of holographic memories

Nikolai A. Kostrov

An analysis is made of the influence of a change in the diameter of the reconstructing beam and of its displacement relative to the center of a hologram on the signal/noise ratio of a holographic memory. The optimal ratio of the diameters of the hologram and reconstructing beam, corresponding to the maximum signal reaching the photodetector, is estimated.

On the Possibility of Holographic Recording in the Absence of Coherence between a Reference Beam and a Beam Scattered by an Object

Rostislav M. Arkhipov, Mikhail V. Arkhipov, Nikolay N. Rosanov

For the holographic recording of the wave field of an object, a pattern created by the interference of the reference wave and the wave scattered by the object is used. Traditional holography requires mutual coherence of the reference and object-related beams. However, it has been shown in this work that the holographic recording of information concerning the object under study is possible without coherence between them, even by using radiation from different sources. Such recording can be carried out by employing subcycle or unipolar radiation pulses, when a resonant medium with a large phase memory time T 2 is used as the recording medium. In this case, the medium records the interference pattern formed by the subcycle or unipolar pulse reflected from the object and the polarization wave created by the same short pulse. Coherence is ensured by a polarization wave, which interacting with radiation reflected from the object induces a population grating in such a medium. This grating mimics the interference pattern in a similar holographic process with a monochromatic source having the wavelength equal to that corresponding to the resonant transition in the medium.

Apodized multiple quasi-phase-matched LiNbO_3 device for low-cross-talk waveband conversion

Isao Tomita, Takeshi Umeki, Osamu Tadanaga +2 more

We developed an apodized multiple quasi-phase-matched (QPM) LiNbO(3) device to reduce the cross talk that occurs during waveband conversion. Since we found that the cross talk arises from ripples between multiple QPM peaks in the phase-matching curve, we reduced the amplitude of the ripples by employing the apodized structure. Using this device, we succeeded in demonstrating waveband conversion with low cross talk.
