A method and apparatus for recording and/or reproducing holographic data and a holographic information storage medium, wherein the apparatus for recording and/or reproducing holographic information includes an optical pickup emitting light onto a holographic information storage medium and receiving the emitted light. The optical pickup includes: a light source unit emitting a signal beam and a reference beam in a recording mode; and a focusing optical system focusing the signal beam and the reference beam on one focal point in the holographic information storage medium so that information can be recorded by using an interference pattern formed along a depth direction of the holographic information storage medium in the vicinity of the focal point, wherein the numerical aperture of the focusing optical system for the signal beam is different from the numerical aperture of the focusing optical system for the reference beam.

An optical deflector includes a driving mirror, which is driven to rotate and has a deflecting surface for deflecting an incident light. Gratings are formed on the deflecting surface, each grating having a shape that makes the intensities of light beams diffracted at a positive order and a negative order different from each other. A main scanning line formed by a trace of the deflected light according to the rotation of the driving mirror is a straight line. The optical deflector is used in an optical scanning apparatus with a light source. The optical scanning apparatus is utilized in an image forming apparatus for forming an electrostatic latent image onto an exposure object.

A defect entry, including position information of a defective block of a reference information layer and state information indicating the defective state of blocks of the other information layers located adjacent to a perpendicular direction at a position of the defective block of the reference information layer, is recorded on a holographic information storage medium. A method of inspecting for a defect includes determining whether blocks in a reference information layer are defective, and determining whether blocks of the other information layers located adjacent to a perpendicular direction at a position of a defective block of the reference information layer are defective, based on a result of the defect determination of the reference information layer.
