摘要:
A hologram record apparatus (100) includes a parameter set device (19), a move device (20), and a control device (18). The parameter set device (19) modifies parameters for multiple recordings such as a record angle and a focal depth in relation to at least one of signal light (L3) and reference light (L2) and can fix the parameters. The move device (20) relatively moves the focus position of the signal light and the reference light in the direction along the record surface of a hologram record medium. The control device (18) performs control so that the parameter for the last recording used for recording at the m-th focus position is used as the parameter for the first recording at the m+1-th focus position.

A hologram recording medium is a hologram recording medium which is irradiated with light for recording information therein or reproducing information therefrom. The hologram recording medium has a recording layer made of a photo-sensitive material capable of preserving an optical interference pattern, a reflective layer disposed on one side of the recording layer opposite to the side on which an light beam impinges, and a quarter wavelength plate interposed between the recording layer and the reflective layer.

A method for holographic recording and reproducing includes a recording process and a reproducing process. In the recording process, a coherent reference beam is spatially modulated in accordance with information to be recorded to generate a signal beam, and the signal beam is converged. The converged signal beam enters and passes through a recording medium made of a photosensitive material. A diffraction grating area according to a light interference pattern is created in a portion where a 0th-order beam and a diffraction beam of the signal beam interfere with each other inside the recording medium. In the reproducing process, a reproduced wave corresponding to the signal beam is generated by illuminating the diffraction grating area with the reference beam.
