摘要:
In the manufacture of an array total internal reflection hologram for printing a pattern of high-quality microfeatures over a large area, a mask defining just a part of the pattern is used to record an array of sub-holograms, the holographic recording medium or the mask being moved with respect to each other subsequent to the recordal of each sub-hologram, thereby building up a hologram of the complete pattern to be printed.

A method is disclosed for replicating (copying) a master hologram into a photosensitive layer to produce a copy of the hologram in a manner such that the copy of the hologram is an accurate and true replication of the master hologram with minimum interface-related defects. A holographic element containing a master hologram for use in contact copying is also disclosed.

The present invention makes it possible to reduce the size of an optical system for multiplex recording or reproduction of information utilizing holography. A pick-up (11) of an optical information recording/reproducing apparatus generates information light by spatially modulating laser light emitted by a light source device (25) with a spatial light modulator (18) depending on the information to be recorded and generates reference light for recording having a spatially modulated phase by spatially modulating the phase of laser beam emitted by the light source device (25) with a phase-spatial light modulator (17). The information light and the reference light for recording are projected upon an optical information recording medium (1) such that they converge in different positions, and information is recorded in the hologram layer (3) in the form of an interference pattern as a result of interference between the information light reflected by a reflecting film (5) and the reference light for recording. The positioning of the information light and the reference light for recording is carried out based on information recorded in address servo areas (6).

The invention provides a hologram plate which is used with the double-focus replication process, and which is integrated with a spacer to impart marring resistance thereto, and is integrated with a light absorbing layer to allow zero-order light and first-order light to have substantially the same intensity. This hologram plate 42 comprises an array of collective element holograms for diffracting parallel light incident thereon at a specific wavelength and a specific incident angle in such a way that the light is converged onto a specific focal length position. The hologram plate 42 is a multilayer structure made up of a first transparent substrate 31, a hologram layer 32, an adhesive layer 33 and a second transparent substrate 41. The second transparent substrate 42 defines a surface in contact with a hologram photosensitive material 53 during hologram replication.

The present invention offers increased efficiency and quality in the duplication of a master hologram utilizing an improved method of contact printing. This improved method of contact printing employs a polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) recording medium as the duplication blank and/or the master hologram material. The optical qualities of the PDLC material described herein provide an improved method of duplication using single beam contact printing regardless of the material comprising the master hologram. Thus, master holograms originally recorded using highly complex optical geometries (e.g., computer generated holograms) are capable of duplication without the need for multiple beam power/intensity balancing and long recording times. The improved hologram contact printing method described herein works with virtually any type of master hologram, including both reflection and transmission holograms.

When a master hologram is to be formed in this method, a diffusing screen image is output as object light onto a first recording surface 12 via a lens 8null. When a slave hologram is to be formed, a second recording surface 12null is placed in a position where an image of the object light is formed by the lens 8null. In this method, the distance between a diffusing screen 7null and the first recording surface 12 when a master hologram 12null is recorded can be made different from the distance between the master hologram 12null and the second recording surface 12null when a slave hologram 12null is recorded. By varying these distances as needed, a hologram can be formed using a small optical system.
摘要:
A system of reproducing multiplexed holographic information from one master medium (100, 300, 400, 500, 600, 720) to another replicate medium (200, 310, 410, 510, 610, 730) simultaneously reads out the information from all multiplexed master holograms within the master medium. The replica has different phase and amplitude distributions from the master medium containing a plurality of multiplexed holograms (420, 520) though both the replica and the master contain the identical holographic information of the original objects.

摘要:
A simplified method is provided for recording identification information, such as a serial number or the like, in a hologram-recorded film simultaneously with hologram duplication. The method includes the steps of coupling a hologram recording film with a master hologram plate having a master hologram, the master hologram plate having a reflective area adjacent the master hologram; and directing laser beams towards the master hologram plate to induce interference between incident laser light and diffraction laser light from the master hologram in the recording film, at least some of the laser beams radiating the reflective area through a transmission type controllable display device to record a pattern in the hologram recording film corresponding to a pattern displayed at the transmission type controllable display device.
