Abstract
Holographic data storage holds the promise of data densities of approximately one bit per cubic wavelength of medium.1 In order to achieve this density using angular multiplexing it is necessary to store diffraction-limited holograms at an angular density consistent with the Bragg width of the individual holograms over all allowed angles. In the typical storage geometry employing crystals with flat polished faces, access to all angles is not possible due to refraction effects.
