In this paper, we introduce modified parity coding methods to reduce the errors caused by spatial beam intensity variations in a holographic data storage system. We explained the encoding and decoding process of the conventional parity coding and the modified parity coding techniques. We compared the bit-error-rate (BER) performances of the conventional parity coding and the modified parity coding techniques from experimental evaluation.

A holographic demultiplexer aimed at producing low polarization dependence loss using a long period volumetric diffraction grating inside photopolymer has been reported and experimentally demonstrated. To obtain the long period gratings, two kinds of gratings are recorded by angle of $4^{\circ}\;and\;6^{\circ}$ corresponding to the polarization dependence property of below 0.5 dB. From the experimental results, we demonstrate the 0.8 nm-spaced 21 channel holographic demultiplexer with the polarization dependence loss of less than -0.38 dB, the channel uniformity of 0.495 dB, and the channel crosstalk of -13 dB.

Holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystals (HPDLCs) have fabricated by irradiating an Ar-ion laser ( ${\lambda}$=514nm) at various intensity on LC/acrylate monomer mixtures which were sandwitched between two ITO coated glass plates. Monomer systems were composed of dipentaerythritol-hydroxy penta acrylate (DPHPA, f=5)/monofunctional acrylate monofunctional monomers. The LC used in this system was E7 (BL001, Merck). Gratings were fabricated by periodic interference of twobeams. Reflection efficiency-irradiation intensity-monomer type relationships were obtained from the UV-visible spectra of the HPDLC films. Peaks were found at a bit smaller wavelength than 514nm, due to the shrinkage of mixture volume upon polymerization. Real time measurements of diffraction efficiency have been obtained according to monomer types and LC contents.

Holographic data storage system is one of next generation high density optical memories. Thereby storing multiple data pages using multiplexing method in one spot, we can achieve high store density and fast access time. However, for uniform writing, we must control exposure time properly by the change of writing material characteristics. Many studies have been investigated about exposure time scheduling. However, once it is decided, we cannot change the scheduled time. Therefore, it is hard to obtain uniform data intensity. In this study, we propose exposure time control method using additional red beam as the monitoring signal. Through reconstructed red beam intensity in real time, we can adjust exposure time by the writing condition change. We construct compensation method mathematically and verify the feasibility of proposed method through the experiments.

In this paper, we investigate the polarization multiplexing for micro holographic storage. The proposed multiplexing method is performed by using crystal media that use photorefractive materials such as Fe-doped $LiNbO_3$. We discuss the feasibility of fast recording, high capacity and transfer rate for polarization multiplexing method. Finally, we experimentally verify the proposed method using polarization selectivity.

Holographic Data Storage System (HDSS), one of the next generation data storage devices, is a 2-dimensional page oriented memory system using volume hologram. HDSS has many noise sources such as crosstalk, scattering and inter pixel interference, etc. The noise source is changing intensity of the light used for carrying the data signal in HDSS. The inter pixel interference results in decrease of Signal to Noise Ratio and increase of Bit Error Rate. In order to improve these problems, this paper proposes to compensate the inter pixel interference with simple interference mask.

Reflection holographic filters are developed. Dichromated gelatin films are used for the recording material, and a modified processing method of obtaining high-quality filters is developed. The diffraction efficiency and bandwidth of the fabricated holographic filter is 93% and 17 nm, respectively. The effect of exposure on the spectral bandwidth and center wavelength of the developed filters are measured, and the characteristics of the dichromated gelatin film are investigated from these results.

EHZP is a kind of holographic optical element, which is generated by the interference of two divergent spherical waves from point sources on the same axis. It has the spherical aberration that the focal power increases as the radial distance r increases. By using this property, optimal design of EHZP was performed for f-$\theta$ lens. As the result of optimization, the f-$\theta$ condition and the field flattening condition were well satisfied when EHZP has f0=0.803f, faR=4.076f, 1=0.406f. It was assumed for calculation of field flattening condition that the incident wave was a plane wave with the diameter of 1mm.

In this paper, a new 2-step quadrature phase-shifting digital holographic optical encryption method using orthogonal polarization is proposed and tolerance errors for this method are analyzed. Unlike the conventional technique using a PZT mirror, the proposed optical setup comprises two input and output polarizers, and one ${\lambda}$/4-plate retarder. This method makes it easier to get a phase shift of ${\pi}$/2 without using a mechanically driven PZT device for phase-shifting and it simplifies the 2-step phase-shifting Mach-Zehnder interferometer setup for optical encryption. The decryption performance and tolerance error analysis for the proposed method are presented. Computer experiments show that the proposed method is an alternate candidate for 2-step quadrature phase-shifting digital holographic optical encryption applications.
