~ EVOLUTION IN DATA STORAGE ~

~INTRODUCTION~

• Hologram is a 3D image reproduced from a

pattern of interference.

• Several Terabyte level mass storage .

• Uses a combination of laser and optical

material to achieve this.

• 3D optical data storage is related to

holographic data storage.

DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 4

~The Beginning~

• Pieter J. van Heerden first proposed the idea of holographic (three-dimensional) storage in the early 1960s.

• A decade later, scientists at RCA Laboratories demonstrated the technology by recording 500 holograms in an iron-doped lithium-niobate crystal.

DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 5

~WHY DO WE NEED THIS?~

• To increase data storage capacity by

using the space within the crystal

that is been used in 1-D and 2-D

storage device.

• Speed retrieval, transfer and search

of data.

• To avoid multiple read/write head

complexity. DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 6

~THE PRACTICAL SETUP~DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 8

DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 9

What is SLM ?• SLM- Spatial light

modulator.

• SLM consists 1-D or 2-D arrays of light modulating elements.

• SLM converts the digital data 1’s or 0’s into a 2-D array of bright & dark spots.

• SLM is used to imprint the data on the object beam.

~About Lithium Niobate Crystal~

• Chemical Formula- LiNbO3.

• It has high photorefractive sensitivity

& stability.

• It has trigonal structure.

• Molecular weight - 147.9

• Band gap - 4eV

DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 11

What is CCD ?• CCD - Charge

Coupled Device.

• Its structure was proposed in 1969 by Boyle & Smith.

• CCD is a light sensitive device.

• CCD converts pixels in images into electric charge.

• CCD contains a separate value for each color.

~INTERESTING FACTS~

• It has been estimated that all the books in the U.S. Library of Congress, could be stored on six (6) HVD's.

• The pictures of every landmass on Earth (Google Earth for example) can be stored on two (2) HVD's.

• With MPEG4 ASP encoding, a HVD can hold between 4,600 to 11,900 hours of video, which is enough for non-stop playing for a year.

DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 23

~PERFORMANCE & ADVANTAGES~

• The multi-layer system is optically transparent and homogeneous .

• Unlike other technologies that record one data bit at a time, holography allows a million bits data to be written and read in parallel with single flash of light.

• It allows 1 million bits of data to be written or read in a single flash of light through SLM.

DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 24

~CHALLENGES~

• No suitable recording media existed.

SOLUTION:Tapestry, a high-performance, proprietary material with proven high-density storage capabilities, was invented by In Phase Technologies.

DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 25

~CHALLENGES~

• Lasers were costly and unreliable.

SOLUTIONDVD recording technologies require the availability of high-quality, price-competitive lasers. In Phase Technologies takes advantage of available red and blue lasers which are used in other high-volume products.

DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 26

~ STILL EXISTING CHALLENGES~

• If too many pages are stored in one crystal, the strength of each hologram is diminished. 

• Align all of the HVD components in a low-cost system.

DEPT OF ECE, CBIT KOLAR 27

~CONCLUSION~

• Holographic Data Storage is a convenient , effective and secure way of data storage.

• Holographic memory will most likely be used in next generation super computers where cost is not as much of an issue.
