We introduce a holographic data storage system for intermediating between small data sets and mass holographic data recording. It employs a holographic sequentially superimposed recording technique. We discuss a time scheduling technique for making uniform reconstruction of sequentially recorded holograms and we show experimental results. We also discuss the Bragg selectivity of sequentially recorded holograms. The maximum storage density of our system is estimated to be 224kbit/$mm^2$. Our system is useful as an intermediate recording system before recording mass holographic data in a larger system.

A photo-reactive methacrylate monomer having triazine as a core component was examined for photochromic diffractive image formation. Photochromic photopolymer films as a recording media contained a monomer mixture of triazine difunctional metharylate (DT) and ethylene glycol phenyl ether acrylate, binder polymer, photo initiator, and a photochromic spiro-oxazine dye. The content of photochromic dye was changed to examine the effect of photochromophore on diffraction efficiency and real holographic image formation. Holographic recording was performed on the photopolymer film by the combination of reference and probe beam. The diffraction efficiency of the photopolymer film in real-time measurement reached a maximum of $\sim90%$ within 30s. It was highly dependent on the photochromophore contents. After holographic recording, the color of the recorded area was changed under UV light (365 nm) and reversibly bleached to original color upon exposure to a visible light source. Films containing only photochromophore without monomer mixture were not reactive under the recording beam (491nm). Diffractive image formation and mechanism of the holographic recording in the presence of photochromophore will be presented.

There are various holographic recording materials, such as Dichromated Gelatin, Silver Halide, Thermoplastic, Photoresist. In this paper especially, we used Photoresist to make the phase holographic grating. Deep-groove diffractive grating formed in relatively thin holographic recording material is to express high diffraction efficiency. Phase holographic grating recorded In photoresist can be used very practical because it has the high diffraction efficiency, and it is possible to make a replication easily. So, it has the merit in recording the optical holographic grating than any other materials.

Holography technology which was developed by Dennis Gabor (1900~1979) in 1948 is a technology to record wave planes of actual 3D objects. It is known as the only technology which can express 3D information most perfectly close to human-friendly. Holography technology is widely used in advertisement, architecture and arts as well as science technology areas. Especially, digital holographic print which is an applied area is greatly used in military map, architecture map and cultural asset restoration by printing and reproducing 3D information. Holography is realized by recording and reproducing the amplitude and phase information on high resolution film using coherent light like laser. Recording materials for digital holographic printer are silver halide, photoresist and photopolymer. Because the materials have different diffraction efficiency according to film characteristics of each manufacturer, appropriate guide lines should be suggested through efficiency analysis of each film. This paper suggests appropriate guide lines through the diffraction efficiency measurement of silver halide which is a holographic printer recording medium. And the objective of this study is to suggest appropriate guide lines through diffraction efficiency analysis of Ultimate 08-C and PFG-03C which are commercially used. The experiment was prepared by self-diffraction efficiency system which measures the strength with the defector by penetrating RGB recording medium and concentrating diffracted beams through collimating lens. The experiment showed Geola's PFG-03C which is a silver halide for full color has price/performance advantage in optical hologram recording, but recording angles and reproduction angles are irregular for digital holographic printer recording. Ultimate's Ultimate08-C for full color shows its diffraction efficiency is relatively stable and high according to recording angles and laser wavelength.

Holography is generally known as a technology that records and reconstructs 3D images by simultaneously capturing the intensity and phase information of light. Two or more interfering beams and illumination of this interference pattern onto a photosensitive recording medium allow us to control both the intensity and phase of light. Holography has found widespread applications not only in 3D imaging but also in manufacturing. In fact, it has been commonly used in semiconductor manufacturing, where interference light patterns are applied to photolithography, effectively reducing the half-pitch and period of line patterns, and enhancing the resolution of lithography. Moreover, holography can be used for the manufacturing of 3D regular structures (3D photonic crystals), not just surface patterns such as 1D or 2D gratings, and this can be broadly divided into (i) holographic recording and (ii) holographic lithography. In this review, we conceptually contrast two seemingly similar but fundamentally different manufacturing methods: holographic recording and holographic lithography. We comprehensively describe the differences in the manufacturing processes and the resulting structural features, as well as elucidate the distinctions in the diffractive optical properties that can be derived from them. Lastly, we aim to summarize the unique perspectives through which each method can appear distinct, with the intention of sharing information about this field with both experts and non-experts alike.

A method for fabrication of holographic optical elements (HOE) using dichromated gelatin (DGG) as a recording material is presented. we describe the holographic properties of the DGG and the processing techniques. Holographic characteristics of the DGG including exposure characteristics, diffraction efficiency and angular sensitivity are also discussed. The diffraction efficiency of the obtained holographic grating is about 84%.

This study investigated the photochromic properties and characterization of acetyl-substituted diarylethene (DAMBTF6)-doped fluoroacrylates media for holographic storage. For the rewritable holographic recording media, we prepared photochromic polymer films using an acrylate matrix by simple photocuring methods. Switching light sources from a visible (532 nm) to an ultraviolet (365 nm) produced transparent films that changed from pale yellow to red. Holographic recording was performed on the photochromic films by two interfering collimated plane wave beams. Excitation with a visible or ultraviolet light completely erased the records, and the film was rewritable either by 532 nm laser or by 325 nm laser within 2 seconds. Images were recorded onto a pixelated spatial light modulator with rectangular pixel apertures and reconstructed on the photochromic films to show recovery of the original images with high resolution.

We designed and fabricated a monocolor holographic reflector for reflective LCDs with DuPont holographic photopolymer as a holographic recording media. By recording at 514 nm as holographic operating wavelength, it was possible to get the brightest image in green color. High contrast ratio is possible due to misalignment of the images with surface reflection and we achieved on/off contrast ratio of 6:1 by applying the fabricated holographic reflector to a TN-LC cell.

In the present work, we investigated the holographic grating erasing method by means of the optical method. It was formed the grating under the interference of holographic recording He-Ne laser beams on chalcogenide $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ thin film with various film thickness and erased the holographic grating by non-polarized He-Ne laser beam. As the results, the recording grating erased the 80 % of formed grating by non-polarized He-Ne laser beam. It was confirmed that the erasing characteristics by non-polarized laser beam need to improve the focusing of beam and the control of beam intensity. And then it can be expected as the application possibility of rewritable holographic memory technology.
