    摘要: An information reading apparatus can detect the coupling state of the input light to a waveguide of a laminated recording medium in a simple manner, so as to enable to focus the input light on a target recording layer to access the information recorded in the target recording layer quickly. The apparatus is compact and is economical to produce. The apparatus has a light source for injecting a light on an input edge of a lamination recording section, assembled into the recording medium containing a lamination of recording layers. Each recording layer has data represented by scattering centers which diffract an input light generated by a converging lens. An input light directing device directs the light source and the converging lens as a unit to focus the input light on a desired location. An image recording device records an informational image generated by guided waves produced within a laminated waveguide. An optical power detector detects output light emitted from an output edge of a specific recording layer as well as scattered light generated from recording layers other than the specific recording layer. An optical power discrimination circuit determines whether an optical power detected by the optical power detector is associated with the output light or the scattered light. Data recorded in any specific recording layer can be accessed quickly and simply by focusing input light on a core layer of a multi-layered hologram recording data storage medium. Because the absolute positional information stored in the storage medium is minimized, data storage capacity of the storage medium is almost unaffected while making the apparatus compact and low cost.

    摘要: The present invention provides a data readout apparatus and method using optical beams by which high data-recording density for optical recording media and high transfer rate for regenerated data can be realized. The data readout method of the present invention comprises the steps of: making a first optical beam incident on an optical recording medium in a manner such that in three successive tracks n-1, n, and n+1, n being an integer of two or more, on the recording medium, the center of the beam spot of the first optical beam lies, in a transverse direction of the tracks, between the boundary point of tracks n-1 and n and the center of track n-1; making a second optical beam incident on the optical recording medium in a manner such that the center of the beam spot of the second optical beam lies, in the transverse direction of the tracks, between the boundary point of tracks n+1 and n and the center of track n+1; detecting reflected beams of the first and second optical beams from the optical recording medium; and regenerating data recorded on the three tracks in accordance with levels of the detected reflected beams. According to this, data sequences recorded on three successive tracks can be regenerated simultaneously by using two optical beams; thus, even if the track pitch is narrowed, it is possible to detect signals without the influence of crosstalk, and the data transfer rate can be increased. The apparatus for implementing this method allows simpler circuit arrangement.

    摘要: A holographic medium is formed of an optical waveguide including at least one core layer positioned between at least one portion of a material having a lower refractive index, a diffraction grating layer formed at a boundary between the core layer and the material of lower refractive index or in the core layer, and a storage layer outside the optical waveguide. Upon storing information in the storage layer a reference beam and an object are input into the optical waveguide and in retrieving stored information the reference beam is emitted to an end face of the core layer and transmitted through the core layer to be transformed into a diffracted beam in a diffraction grating layer that is emitted outside the core layer and transmitted through the storage layer, where the object beam is retrieved as a retrieved beam.
