Abstract

This paper presents the results of a two-year Phase II SBIR program investigating a number of the key aspects of the use of Spectral Hole Burning media in a high capacity holographic optical digital computer memory. Factors which were experimentally examined include data longevity and unintentional erasure, and fundamental capacity issues relating to data densities and crosstalk. An experimental memory system was constructed and tested which had all the key elements of a digital memory system. Our experimental results confirm our previous analyses which indicate useful storage densities of 10¹² bytes/cm³.
