White light micrograting multiplexing for high density data storage

Abstract

Recording of multiplexed microholographic gratings with improved recording volume for high density optical data storage is proposed and demonstrated. By using a hybrid diffractive–refractive objective lens with extended depth of focus, we have achieved a recording beam size of approximately 1μm and a focal depth of 20μm. Multiple gratings corresponding to spectral lines within the 400650nm spectral band have been successfully multiplexed in a single recording spot or pit of size 1.25μm on a DuPont photopolymer film using a white light source along with narrowband filters or dispersion elements, thus demonstrating the storage of multiple bits in a single pit. Simultaneous readout of multiple bits in a single storage pit is accomplished with a microspectrometer-type readout head using a white light source.
