Measurement and application of dynamic range for holographic storage media.
An experimental system for measuring the dynamic ranges of holographic storage media is described, along with measurements made on Kodak film types 2498, 2496, 649F, and Panatomic X for spatial frequencies from 10 cycles/mm to 200 cycles/mm. The measured dynamic range tends to grow with the two-thirds power of hologram area, as predicted by theory. Examples of the use of dynamic range to select the most desirable storage medium for holograms with fixed numbers of resolution cells are given.
