Abstract
This work proposes a page differential intensity amplification for optical signal amplification in the intensity multiplexing holographic data storage system. The proposed method detects the signals of four cameras and reconstructs the intensity difference between two pages. The reconstructed intensity difference is amplified by the ratio of the readout beam amplitude to the local oscillator beam amplitude. Experiments showed that the proposed method can achieve a more stable signal amplification than the conventional amplification technique. Moreover, signal detection is possible with one third the intensity of the readout beam compared to the conventional direct detection method. This corresponds to 1.8 times the recording capacity increase if the capacity is limited by M/#, or the reduction to one third the readout exposure time.
