A hologram reproducing apparatus includes a first reference light path leading laser light from a laser light source so that a hologram recording medium is irradiated with first reference light; a diffracted light path leading diffracted light, generated from the hologram recording medium by irradiation with the first reference light, to a light receiving element having a plurality of pixels; and a second reference light path leading second reference light, having the same polarization direction as that of the diffracted light, from the laser light source to the light receiving element. The second reference light path is provided with a phase modulating element so that the phase difference between the diffracted light and the second reference light in a light receiving surface of the light receiving element is adjusted within a predetermined range.

A thermomagnetic recording method is disclosed using a thermomagnetic recording medium where first, second and third magnetic thin films (1-3) each formed of rare-earth and transition metals are sequentially superposed to form layers in a magnetically coupled manner. The recording is carried out by heating the thermomagnetic recording medium under a predetermined magnetic field perpendicular to the film plane thereof while selectively modulating, in accordance with data to be recorded, a first heating state at a first temperature T1 substantially above the Curie point Tc1 of the first magnetic thin film (1) and adequate to hold the sublattice magnetization of the transition metal of the second magnetic thin film in a predetermined direction, and a second heating state at a second temperature T2 substantially above the Curie point Tc1 and adequate to invert the sublattice magnetization of the transition metal of the second magnetic thin film (2) to the reverse of the predetermined direction. In a cooling step subsequent to the first and second heating states, maintaining the sublattice magnetization of the third magnetic thin film in a predetermined direction while orienting the sublattice magnetization of said second magnetic thin film to be directionally coincident with that of the third magnetic thin film at a temperature below the first temperature T1 without directionally inverting the sublattice magnetization of the first magnetic thin film (1).

In the method, real-time overwriting information can be achieved without using a modulated external magnetic fieled.

摘要:
A hologram recording/reconstructing apparatus includes a spatial modulator (19) in which a reference beam region and a reconstruction beam region are formed, and a controller (100) configured to control a range of the reference beam region and a range of the reconstruction beam region. According to a temperature of a hologram recording medium (48) during recording, the controller sets the range of the reference beam region to a first predetermined range and thereby sets a range of an incident angle of a reference beam on the hologram recording medium to a first predetermined angle range. According to a temperature of the hologram recording medium during reconstruction of recorded data, the controller sets the range of the reconstruction beam region to a second predetermined range and thereby sets a range of an incident angle of a reconstruction beam on the hologram recording medium to a second predetermined angle range.
