The present invention relates to a method for recording data pages in a holographic recording medium, and more specifically to a method for compensating for sensitivity variations of the holographic material of the holographic recording medium. According to the invention, a method for recording data pages on a holographic recording medium has the steps of: modulating a light beam with a spatial light modulator to generate a data page with data to be recorded, and applying a compensation profile to the data pages during recording for reducing contrast variations in the reconstructed data pages, wherein the compensation profile is determined from the irradiation history at the recording position and the sensitivity curve of the material of the holographic recording medium.

A method for compensating for a wavelength mismatch between a readout reference beam and a recording reference beam in a holographic storage system is described. In order to compensate for a wavelength mismatch in a first step the wavelength mismatch is determined. In a second step the direction of at least part of the readout reference beam is adjusted relative to a holographic storage medium in dependence on the determined wavelength mismatch by defocusing the readout reference beam or by adjusting the focal length of an objective lens for focusing the readout reference beam into the holographic storage medium.

The present invention relates to a phase mask for holographic data storage, and to a method and an apparatus for reading from and/or writing to holographic storage media using such a phase mask.According to the invention, the phase mask has a plurality of phase cells, whose size is equal to an integer multiple of the size of the pixels of a spatial light modulator of the apparatus. The phase cells have a phase variation on sub-cell scale, which is inverse for essentially half the number of phase cells.

The present invention relates to a holographic storage system, and more specifically to a method for pixel detection in a coaxial holographic storage system.In a holographic storage system according to the invention, with a coaxial arrangement of an object beam and a reference beam the bright pixels within the object beam have a phase shift of essentially π relative to the reference beam. For readout of a data page contained in a reconstructed object beam a detector detects an interference pattern generated by the interference between the reference beam and the reconstructed object beam.

A data page for use in a holographic data storage system, and to a method and an apparatus for writing to holographic storage media using such a data page are described. The data page has dark zones for each boundary between phase blocks of a phase mask of the holographic data storage system, which consist of switched-off pixels that are not used for encoding data, and which coincide with the boundaries between the phase blocks.

The present invention relates to a method for calibrating a holographic storage system, and to an apparatus for reading from and/or writing to holographic storage media and a holographic storage medium suitable for such method. According to the invention, the method has the steps of: sending a set of test data pages through at least part of the holographic storage system; receiving a set of transmitted test data pages with a detector; comparing the set of transmitted test data pages with the set of sent test data pages; and correcting parameter variations of the holographic storage system based on the results of the comparing step.
