HOLOGRAPHIC DATA STORAGE
Contents
Introduction Magnetic and conventional optical data storage
technologies are approaching physical limits beyond which individual bits may be too small or too difficult to store.
Holographic data storage is an approach of storing information throughout the volume of a medium—not just on its surface.
With the rapidly increasing demand for increased storage capacity in a smaller space, this technology offers an economy in price.
Features Next – Next generation Technology 1 HVD = 5800 CDs = 830 DVDs = 160 Blu-ray Media type : Ultra-high density optical disc Encoding : MPEG-2, MPEG-4 AVC (H.264), and VC-1 Capacity theoretically up to 3.9 TB Developed by HSD Forum Usage : Data Storage, : High-defination video and the possibility of Ultra-high defination video permits over 10 Kbits of data to be read and written in parallel with a single flash
What Is Hologram ?
A hologram is a recording of the optical interference
pattern that forms at the intersection of twocoherent optical beamsSignal beamReference beamon the holographic medium.
Types of Holograms
• Transmission Hologram– Can be used to store data– Uses coherent light
• Reflection Hologram– The kind you find on credit cards– Uses white light
Holography vs Photography
Black and white photograph– Intensity
Color photograph– Intensity and wavelength
Hologram– Intensity, phase, and sometimes wavelength

Recording Data
Spatial Light Modulator(SDM) Translates electronic data (0’s
and 1’s) into optical pattern of light and dark pixcels
Data is arranged in an array similar to a checker board of usually 1 million bits
By varying the angle of the reference beam ,wavelength or media position, many holograms can be stored in the same volume of storage material

HVD Technology
HVD uses a technology called ‘collinear technology’ Two Laser rays one blue-green and one red are used The role of blue-green laser is to read the data
encoded the form of laser interference fringes from the holographic layer
The red laser serves the purpose of a reference beam and also to read the servo info from the aluminum layer
Read only HVD Read\Write HVD
supports some irreversible photochemical reaction triggered by the bright regions of the optical interference pattern
Material diffuses from darker to brighter regions so that short monomer chains can bind together to form long molecular chains
uses inorganic photorefractive crystals
Electrons get photo-excited at the bright fringes, diffuse or drift and are re-trapped at a dark fringe
Trapped charge can be rearranged by later illumination, so it is possible to erase recorded holograms
Current State of Technology Storage and Cost
– CD-ROM: 783 MB to 1.3 GB – 10 cents– DVD+DL: 5 GB to 30 GB - $3– Blu-Ray DL: 25 GB to 50 GB - $30– InPhase Tapestry: 300 GB - $250– Hard disk: 1 TB - $300– HVD (future): 4 TB
Current State of Technology Tansfer rates and Recordable Player Approx Cost
– CD-ROM 52x: ~ 5 MB/second --$200– DVD 16x: ~ 20 MB/s --$ 2000– InPhase Tapestry: 20 MB/sec– Blu-Ray and HDDVD: ~ 30 MB/sec --$2000– 7200 rpm Hard disk: 80 MB/sec – HVD: 1 GB/sec --$3000
Interesting Facts It has been estimated that books in the U.S. Library
of Congress, the largest library in the world, could be stored on 6 HVD’s
The pictures of every landmass on Earth – like the one shown in Google Earth can be stored on two HVD’s
With MPEG4 ASP encoding , a HVD can hold anywhere in between 4,600 to 11,900 hours of video, which is enough for non-stop Playing for a year
