A holographic optical information recording/reproducing device is provided with a laser light source 1 and a polarizing beam splitter 8 for splitting a light from the laser light source 1. At the time of recording information, one of light beams split by the polarizing beam splitter 8 is modulated by a spatial light modulating element 2 to form a beam array, which becomes a signal light 25, whereas the other split light beam becomes a reference light 22. Interference fringes generated by the signal light 25 and the reference light 22 are recorded as holograms in a holographic disc 5. At the time of reproducing the information, only the reference light 22 is irradiated to the holographic disc 5 and its diffracted light is detected. At this time, the holographic optical information recording/reproducing device makes the power of the reference light 22 in the holographic disc 5 for information reproduction larger than a sum of the power of the reference light 22 and the power of the signal light 25 in the holographic disc 5 for information recording.

It is aimed to make optical characteristics of a photon mode optical information recording medium difficult to easily degrade with a simple construction. A disc cartridge accommodating a photon mode optical information recording medium is provided with a disc case having an opening section, and a shutter movably disposed between a closing position to close the opening section and an opening position to open the opening section. The disc case includes a light path bending portion for bending a clearance between the shutter at the closing position and the disc case at least at two points. Stray lights propagating in the clearance between the disc case and shutter is bent at least at two points.

An object of the invention is to prevent lowering of a dynamic range of a hologram recording medium without lowering an average data transfer rate, and to provide stabilized recording sensitivity. A scheduler determines a recording interval time from the point of time when light is irradiated to record a certain hologram of holograms to be multiplex-recorded to the point of time when light is irradiated to record a succeeding hologram in such a manner that at least parts of the holograms are recorded one over the other in a certain recording area. A recording interval time controller controls a light source to irradiate the light depending on the recording interval time determined by the scheduler.

A hologram recording/reproducing apparatus includes: a coherent light source; a spatial light modulator which spatially modulates light from the coherent light source; a Fourier transform lens which concentrates light modulated by the spatial light modulator upon a hologram medium; and a two-dimensional light-receiving element array which receives light from the hologram medium. The spatial light modulator is divided into a reference light area and a signal light area, and the divergence angle of reference light emitted from the reference light area is wider than the divergence angle of signal light emitted from the signal light area.

Disclosed is an arrangement that enables to keep a relative positional relation between a beam for servo control and a beam for information recording/reproduction constant concerning focusing control and tracking control, even if the two beams are different from each other. An optical storage medium has a reflection surface for reflecting a first beam having a first wavelength, and reflecting a second beam having a second wavelength different from the first wavelength; and an information storage layer for recording information as an interference pattern by incidence of the first beam, or reproducing the information from a wave surface based on the interference pattern. The reflection surface is formed with plural marks or guide grooves usable in a tracking operation or a focusing operation by irradiation of the second beam. The information storage layer is partially formed, in advance, with a reference interference pattern which is reproduced when the first beam is irradiated, and which is used as a reference for correcting the relative positional relation between the first beam and the second beam.

An information recording/reproducing device irradiates a signal light beam containing arbitrary two-dimensional information and a reference beam emitted from the same light source as the signal light beam to an arbitrary region of a hologram recording medium to record a first hologram. After the first hologram is recorded, the device changes the incident angle of the signal light beam with respect to the hologram recording medium and multiplex-records a second hologram, which is different from the first hologram, in the same region as the region in which the first hologram is recorded by irradiating a signal light beam whose incident angle has been changed and a reference beam substantially the same as the reference beam used when recording the first hologram while the device obtains at least a part of a diffracted beam from the first hologram simultaneously.

A two-dimensional image formation device of the present invention is provided with a spatial light modulation element (7) for modulating light having a linear polarization and emitted from a laser light source (1), and a depolarization means (21) for depolarizing the modulated light before it is incident on an image display surface. The light having a linear polarization is used before and after incidence of irradiated light to the spatial light modulation element (7), and the linear polarization of the irradiated light is depolarized after the modulation, whereby randomly polarized light is projected on a screen (11). Thereby, speckle noise is significantly reduced, and a high-definition image can be formed.
