Abstract
Three-dimensional shift selectivity of a reflection-type hologram with speckle shift recording is investigated experimentally and numerically. We build an experimental setup consisting of lenses with numerical apertures of 0.28 and an iron-doped LiNbO3 with a thickness of . The experimental results show that three-dimensional selectivity has a size of in diffraction efficiency. We also develop a volume holographic memory simulator to evaluate the experimental results. The simulator can quantitatively evaluate bit error rate, signal-to-noise ratio, and diffraction efficiency. Numerical results are in good agreement with the experimental results. The experimental and numerical results indicate that three-dimensional shift multiplexing can increase the storage capacity.
