Volume polarization holographic recording in thick phenanthrenequinone-doped poly(methyl methacrylate) photopolymer

Volume polarization holographic recording in phenanthrenequinone-doped poly (methyl methacrylate) photopolymer is obtained. Photoinduced birefringence in a 2 mm thick sample is measured by a phase-modulated ellipsometry. The birefringence induced in this material by linearly polarized beam at 514 nm reaches 1.2×10(-5). In addition, ability for recording volume polarization grating using two different polarization configurations is demonstrated and compared. The experimental results show that the diffraction efficiency of the hologram reaches to ～40% by using two orthogonal circularly polarized beams.     

Analysis of temperature change effects on hologram recordingand a compensation method

For commercialization of holographic storage drives, the effects of temperature changes on holographic medium is critical. There has been no systematic study on the effect of temperature change on hologram recording properties. We believe that the monomer-diffusion speed and polymerization rate changes are critical for hologram-recording properties and estimate those parameters on each temperature using the photopolymer medium process simulation we have developed. We describe how these parameters affect actual recording properties such as sensitivity, M=# and so on. Moreover, we propose a method for compensating temperature changes, and confirm the success of this.

Holographic storage of three-dimensional image and data using photopolymer and polymer dispersed liquid crystal films

We present holographic storage of three-dimensional(3D) images and data in a photopolymer film without any applied electric field.Its absorption and diffraction efficiency are measured,and reflective analog hologram of real object and image of digital information are recorded in the films.The photopolymer is compared with polymer dispersed liquid crystals as holographic materials.Besides holographic diffraction efficiency of the former is little lower than that of the latter,this work demonstrates that the photopolymer is more suitable for analog hologram and big data permanent storage because of its high definition and no need of high voltage electric field.Therefore,our study proposes a potential holographic storage material to apply in large size static 3D holographic displays,including analog hologram displays,digital hologram prints,and holographic disks.     

Nonlocal polymerization-driven diffusion-model-based examination of the scaling law for holographic data storage

For the first time to our knowledge, a detailed theoretical basis is provided for the well-known inverse-square scaling law of holographic diffraction, which states that replay diffraction efficiency eta = gamma/M2, where M is the number of gratings stored and gamma is a constant system parameter. This law is shown to hold for photopolymer recording media governed by the predictions of the nonlocal polymerization-driven diffusion model. On the basis of the analysis, we (i) propose a media inverse scaling law, (ii) relate gamma to photopolymer material parameters and the hologram geometry and replay conditions, and (iii) comment on the form and validity of the diffraction efficiency inverse-square scaling law for higher-diffraction-efficiency gratings.     

Recording media that exhibit high dynamic range for digital holographic data storage

A general strategy for fabricating thick, optically flat photopolymer recording media with high dynamic range (M/#) that exhibit low levels of recording-induced Bragg detuning for holographic data storage is presented. In particular, media with M/# values as high as 42 in 1-mm-thick formats are obtained. We believe that these results are the first demonstration of a holographic storage medium with a dynamic range of this magnitude. In addition, we report the holographic recording and recovery of high-capacity (480-kbit) digital data pages in these media, further illustrating their data-storage capabilities.     

Holographic recording in a photopolymer by optically induced detachment of chromophores

We demonstrate holographic recording in a new photopolymer system. The recording material is created by copolymerization of an optically inert monomer, methyl methacrylate, and a second monomer that is optically sensitive. On exposure of the recording material to light, a portion of the optically sensitive component detaches from the polymer matrix and causes hologram amplification through diffusion of the free molecules. We measured postrecording grating amplifications as high as 170% by this process. The recorded holograms are persistent at room temperature under continuous illumination at the recording wavelength.     

Material saturation in photopolymer holographic data recording and its effects on bit-error-rate and content-addressable search

Fourier transform of an amplitude modulated data page gives rise to high intensity at the zero-spatial frequency. Recording such high intensity requires a large-dynamic range on the part of the recording material and leads to material saturation. Moving the recording plane away from the Fourier plane is often used for spectrum uniformity and thereby improving the quality of reconstruction. In the present paper, we have investigated the effect of photopolymer material saturation on the bit-error-rate, the signal-to-noise ratio, and content-addressable search of a holographic data storage system. We have performed numerical simulation of the process of hologram recording and corresponding reconstruction, and show an improvement in the BER and the SNR values of the reconstructed data page for the defocused recording. A multi-layer thin-slice approach to take into account the thickness of recording material is used to simulate the volume hologram. The numerical simulation model can be used as an efficient tool for system optimization.

Fabrication and characterization of poly(methyl methacrylate) photopolymer doped with 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (PQ) based derivatives for volume holographic data storage

We present our studies on the photopolymer of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) doped with 9,10-phenanthrenequinone based derivatives for volume holographic storage. By introducing different functional groups on the side-chain of 9,10-phenanthrenequinone molecule, the holographic characteristics of the material can be modified. The photoreaction involved with the holographic recording in the samples was investigated by measuring UV-Vis absorption spectrum and mass spectrum. The experimental results show that the similar behaviors were exhibited in these photopolymers. It is found that phase hologram recording in our PQ derivatives doped PMMA photopolymer involves a structure change of the quinone based molecule, which induces a strong change of the refractive index. Experimental characterizations on holographic data storage, including material sensitivity, dynamic range (M#) and bit-error-rate have been performed. We found that, by selecting appropriate functional groups, an improvement in sensitivity and M# for holographic data storage can be achieved.     

Dynamics of pulsed recording of holographic diffraction gratings in photopolymer materials

The dynamics of recording holographic diffraction gratings in photopolymer material using 10-ns pulses of Nd:YAG laser radiation (532 nm) was investigated. The formation of permanent and intermediate gratings was observed. Optimization of the photopolymer composition for pulsed recording was performed. The kinetic photopolymerization models taking into account the mechanisms of radical destruction due to recombination and by impurities are verified. Measurement of the recording kinetics at different recording angles showed that diffusion does not affect the hologram formation for times of the same order of magnitude as the recording duration (0.1 s) at a length of the grating half-period. Samples of the photopolymer composition in triethanolamine were investigated and diffusion of oligomeric acrylamide molecules was revealed. The diffusivity was found to be 1.1 × 10^?9 cm²/s.

Improvement of the optical signal-to-noise ratio in common-path holographic storage by use of a polarization-controlling media structure

A holographic storage arrangement with common-path optics is likely to suffer from degradation of the optical signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) owing to scattering of the reference beam. Instead of the conventional method of spatial separation between the reference beam and a reconstruction beam, adoption of a combined spatial and polarization separation is proposed. To achieve polarization separation by using a photopolymer as the recording material, a media structure including retardation films and a reflection layer is proposed such that the polarization states of the two beams are the same inside the material but orthogonal outside. Preliminary experiments to show the feasibility of this idea for improving optical SNR are also demonstrated.     

Experimental study of multiplexed holographic gratings recorded in a photopolymerizable silica glass

Recently the capability of photopolymerizable sol–gel materials to angular multiplex holographic gratings has been demonstrated [1, 2]. In this study, holographic transmission gratings were recorded using angular multiplexing in a silica glass doped photopolymer holographic recording material. The time interval between exposures and the angular selectivity were analyzed, in particular their effects on the dynamic range. By using the optimal parameters gratings of similar response were achieved with values of M/#=4.8, as well as good values of diffraction efficiency with high photosensitivity.

Technique for characterization of dimensional changes in slanted holographic gratings by monitoring the angular selectivity profile

A method has been developed for retrieving the complete angular selectivity profile of transmission holographic gratings in one step. The method is applied to study in real time the shrinkage and changes in the effective optical thickness of a slanted holographic grating recorded in an acrylamide-based photopolymer. It can form the basis of a holographic sensor of analytes that cause a thickness change in the holographic medium. It can also be useful for the study and optimization of holographic recording materials and for quality control during production of holographic optical elements.
