APPARATUS FOR RETROREFLECTING REFERENCE BEAM AND HOLOGRAPHIC INFORMATION RECORDING/REPRODUCING DEVICE EMPLOYING THE SAME

摘要

Provided are an apparatus for retroreflecting reference beams and a holographic information recording/reproducing device employing the same. The apparatus for retroreflecting reference beams for use in a holographic information recording/reproducing device for recording/reproducing information on/from a holographic recording medium includes a lens focusing reference beams transmitted through the holographic recording medium at different incident angles with respect to the holographic recording medium to form spots at different positions in a focal plane; and a mirror disposed at the focal plane and retroreflecting the spots created by the lens toward the holographic recording medium.
