Abstract

A conjugate recording/readout method is described for volume holographic disk system. The principle of the coupled wave analysis is given for the dynamic processes of the volume holographic gratings. The formation of gratings under the conjugate method and the corresponding diffraction efficiency are studied experimentally with the cationic ringopening photopolymerization (CROP) material. Results show that the method helps to enhance the holographic recording/readout process with a higher speed. It can also reduce the non-uniform exposure along the beam inside the material. With this conjugate structure, low-power semiconductor laser diodes are applicable and the recording speed is greatly increased, which will promote the compact and commercialization of the volume holographic photopolymer disk system.
