Technical Field

Background
Holographic optical storage uses interference of optical waves to record data page information in a form of hologram in a photosensitive medium, and compared with the conventional optical storage technology, the holographic optical storage has the advantages of large storage capacity, high data transmission rate, short addressing time and the like. In the holographic optical storage technology, a laser beam is divided into two beams, namely reference light and signal light, wherein the signal light carries data page information after being transmitted or reflected by a spatial light modulator, and the signal light and the reference light are interfered in a photosensitive material layer of a storage medium and exposed to form a hologram, so that the information is recorded.
The holographic storage medium is internally provided with an address layer, and annular or spiral grooves or ridge-shaped light paths are distributed on the address layer; the annular groove or the convex ridge is detected by the servo light sensing system to realize accurate positioning, so that quick and convenient data access and storage are realized. The introduction of the servo light path into the holographic optical storage light path system can effectively improve the storage and retrieval efficiency of data.
When reading the hologram, it is necessary to irradiate the same reference light as that used in recording to reproduce the hologram in the storage medium; when the grating stripes in the storage medium are slightly deformed due to external factors, the incident angle and the irradiation position of the reproduced reference light should be slightly changed, so that the wave vectors of the reproduced reference light meet the Bragg matching condition of the hologram, and the signal light is effectively reproduced. In addition, in order to ensure that the data can be completely read when the holographic optical disk recorded with data is read on the same holographic optical drive or other holographic optical drives, the servo beam and the reference beam must be calibrated. Therefore, it is necessary to establish an effective calibration system for calibrating the servo beam and the reference beam so that the head can read the data from the hologram completely during high speed movement.

The signal light 3 and the reference light 2 are both spherical waves, and the holograms are recorded by using the spherical waves to perform shift multiplexing and wavelength multiplexing, so that the capacity of the holograms stored on the same track can be improved, and the storage capacity of the storage medium is improved.
Preferably, the signal optical path and the reference optical path both include a common read-write laser 70 and a common beam expander 80, where the read-write laser 70 is configured to generate read-write light, and the beam expander 80 is configured to perform beam expansion on the read-write light.
Preferably, the signal optical path and the reference optical path include a nyquist filter 200 located on a spectrum plane of the signal light 3, the nyquist filter 200 being for intercepting unnecessary spatial frequency components on the spectrum plane of the signal light 3 to control a hologram size.
In the present scheme, the beam expander 80 expands the beam of the reading/writing light to overcome the problem that the reading/writing light emitted from the reading/writing laser 70 is non-uniform.
Preferably, the relay lens group includes a fixed first fourier lens 130 and a movable second fourier lens 131, and the irradiation positions and angles of the signal light 3 and the reference light 2 are adjusted by moving the second fourier lens 131. The signal optical path and the reference optical path share a first Fourier lens 130 and a second Fourier lens 131, the position of the first Fourier lens 130 is fixed, and the position of the second Fourier lens 131 is movable.

In the present embodiment, most of the signal optical path and the reference optical path share the same propagation path in the process from the laser light source to the storage medium. The signal light 3 and the reference light 2 are split by the third polarization beam splitter 32 at the end of the optical path thereof, near the storage medium, and then irradiate the storage medium at the same or different angles. The specific optical path propagation path is as follows:
the read-write laser 70 generates read-write light, and the read-write light is adjusted to be read-write light with a certain polarization direction by the second half-wave plate 21 after being expanded by the beam expander 80. The read-write light passes through the second polarization beam splitter 31 and is converted into signal light 3 in the P polarization direction and reference light 2 in the S polarization direction. The reference light 2 and the signal light 3 are orthogonal in the off-normal direction, and the ratio is 1:1. The signal light 3 in the P polarization direction carries data information after passing through the spatial light modulator 90. The signal light 3 in the P-polarization direction and the reference light 2 in the S-polarization direction sequentially pass through the first fourier lens 130, the nyquist filter 200, the second fourier lens 131, and the third half-wave plate 22 to be converted into the reference light 2 in the P-polarization direction and the signal light 3 in the S-polarization direction.

The second fourier lens 131 that moves the signal optical path can adjust the irradiation position and angle of the signal light 3. The irradiation position and angle of the reference light 2 can be adjusted by moving the second fourier lens 131 of the reference light path.

s17, repeating the step S16, and recording the whole disc of data hologram;
in step S11, the method for moving the collimating lens 140 and the second fourier lens 131 to the initial positions is: the light path simulation design ensures that the converging light spot of the servo light 1 is on the plane of the track of the storage medium (i.e. the address layer 121), and meanwhile, the interference area of the reference light 2 and the signal light 3 can effectively cover the storage medium, and the positions of the collimating lens 140 and the second fourier lens 131 at this time are initial positions.
