Large-scale Holographic Memory: Experiment Results

Abstract

We describe a holographic optical memory capable of storing up to 10^12 bits of information. The stored information is retrieved in blocks or pages, each consisting of 10^3 x 10^3 bits. Each page can be accessed randomly in approximately 100 µsec with an experimentally measured SNR of 816.8, and a projected probability of error of 10^(-28)
