Abstract

Various fundamental cross-talk effects that limit the information storage capacity of the spatial-frequency-multiplexed Fourier-transform volume holograms are identified and analyzed. The methods for eliminating the identified cross-talk effects are presented. The signal-to-noise ratio, which determines the actual storage capacity, is derived.
