摘要:
Long term optical memory includes a storage medium composed from an array of silicon nanoridges positioned onto the fused silica glass. The array has first and second polarization contrast corresponding to different phase of silicon. The first polarization contrast results from amorphous phase of silicon and the second polarization contrast results from crystalline phase of silicon. The first and second polarization states are spatially distributed over plurality of localized data areas of the storage medium.
