Hologram recording method and device, hologram reproduction method and device, and optical recording medium

摘要

There is provided a hologram recording method, including generating a signal light which is spatially modulated such that digital data is represented by an image of intensity distribution, irradiating the signal light on an optical recording medium after a Fourier transformation of the signal light such that a zero-order component of the signal light comes into focus at a point removed from the optical recording medium, forming a diffraction grating in the optical recording medium by interference between the zero-order component of the signal light and a high-order component thereof, and recording digital data represented by the signal light as a hologram.
