Frequency Domain Optical Storage.

Abstract

The phenomenon of photochemical hole burning makes it possible to utilize optical frequency as an additional dimension for the organization of an optical data store. Storage densities of 10 to the 11th power bits/cm squared may ultimately be achieved. The basic principles of photochemical hole burning are reviewed in this paper and recent research results are presented. (Author)
