Application of optoelectronic micro-displays for holographic binary data recorder based on computer generated fourier holograms

Аннотация

Present article highlights the researches provided during the development of holographic memory system based on application of computational methods to encode binary data pages as amplitude computer generated Fourier holograms (CGFH). Using electro-optical micro-display and projection optics CGFH can be recorded onto photosensitive medium. The type of display that is used in data recorder determines the specificities of optical scheme architecture with its own limitations and advantages. There are three projection schemes of binary data recorder discussed in the paper. A linear scheme based on transparency-type liquid crystal spatial light modulator (LC SLM), a scheme based on reflection-type liquid crystal on silicon spatial light modulator (LCoS SLM) which uses a beamsplitting cube, and the most compact and simple scheme based on self-emitting OLED-display. The results of experimental implementation of all the three projection schemes for CGFH of binary data pages record onto the holographic carrier and consequent optical reconstruction and analysis of the encoded data are presented.
