2. What Are Data Storage Devices
All device Using for storing data. Recording
can be done Mechanically, Magnetically, or
Optically
3. HVD : Holographic Versatile Discs
Hold 300 Gigabytes Of Data
10 Times Faster Than A Normal DVD
Little Wider Than Conventional DVDs
And Also Slightly Thicker.
Completely Based on concept of
Holographic-memory
Developed By InPhase Tech. & Optware
Tech.
4. Basics Of Holographic Memory
Phenomena of storing information in a
light-sensitive crystal material using the
interference of laser light.
The recorded patterns of light are called a
hologram.
Hologram Is Creating By A Focused Beam
– A Laser Light
This Beam Is Split Into Two Parts
1) Reference beam
2) Information beam
5. Basics Of Holographic Memory
Reference Beam Remains Unchanged
Information Beam Passes Through An Image
Then Carries That Image In Its Waveforms
When Both Beams Intersect, It Creates Pattern Of
Light Interference.
Data Stored In Hologram
Holograms Can Theoretically Store Equal To 1
Bit/cubic block The Size Of The Wavelength
6. Holographic Versatile Discs
This Is 40 year old concept. Initially Difficult To Make
Because Systems Send Reference Beam & Info.
Beam Into Recording Medium On Diff. axes
HVDs Can More Than 1 Terabyte (TB).
Accessed Entire Page At A Time Instead of
Sequentially .
HVD Stores Info. In Almost The Entire Volume Of
The Disc.
Stores 60,000 Bits Info. In One Pulse Of Light.
9. Structure Of HVDs In Thickness
1. Green writing/reading laser
(532 nm)
2. Red positioning/addressing
laser (650 nm)
3. Hologram (data)
4. Polycarbon layer
5. Photopolymeric layer (data-
containing layer)
6. Distance layers
7. Dichroic layer (reflecting green
light)
8. Aluminium reflective layer
(reflecting red light)
9. Transparent base
P. PIT
10. The HVD System
A simplified HVD system consists of the
following main components:
Blue or green laser
Beam splitter/merger
Mirrors
Spatial light modulator (SLM)
CMOS sensor
Photopolymer recording medium
14. HVDs Comparison
Storage Medium Access Time Data Transfer Rate Storage
