Aluminum oxide single crystals doped with magnesium and carbon and having aggregate vacancy defects are proposed
for volumetric fluorescent bit-wise data storage. A unique optical recording technique, which utilizes sequential two-photon
absorption and incoherent confocal fluorescence detection, is utilized for nondestructive readout. The new
medium is exceptionally environmentally and temporally stable and can be recorded with diode lasers. Recent static and
dynamic test stand results are reported, including demonstration of 20 layers of data and random mark-length recording
with a clear "eye pattern" and satisfactory carrier-to-noise ratio.

We proposed a concept of a roll-type optical advanced memory (RoCAM). RoCAM is a multilayered optical
memory, in which recording layers are wound onto a shaft. Multilayered media are fabricated easily by winding
a two-layered filmlm, which is composed of a photosensitive layer and a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) layer.
We showed certain advantages of RoCAM and also demonstrated a prototype of RoCAM and the recording and
reading results for two layers.

The special shape of the optical disk tracking grooves is proposed. These tracking grooves are similar to the blazed
diffraction grating grooves. The grooves structure can be read by the standard optical disk reading equipment. The
multilayer optical disk with slant tracking grooves is proposed. These grooves have different planes and angles of
inclination for different data layers. This allows to direct the signals reflected from the different data layers to the
different photodetectors. The optical disk capacity increases due to excluding space between tracking grooves and due to
increasing the number of data layers. Sequential and parallel optical disk reading options are possible. The technique of
information pits arrangement is proposed for parallel reading of information from several data layers. For protecting of
the optical disk against its illegal use the disk is made partly recordable and an initialization procedure is performed at
the user's recording/reproducing device. During the initialization procedure identifying parameters of the user's device
are recorded onto recordable layer of the disk. Also, the unique combination of the bits pairs containing both information
prerecorded on the optical disk and information about the user's recording/reproducing device is remembered in the
special flash memory of the user's device.

This paper reviews the analyses and the experimental results of Micro-reflector optical disc system. In Micro-reflector
optical disc, data are recorded on multiple virtual planes in a monolithic holographic medium. We have demonstrated
the possibility of huge capacity from our analyses of readout characteristics of the Micro-reflector. In addition, we have
developed the five-axis servo control system in order to achieve precise control of two counter-propagating light spots in
recording media. Using this system, we succeeded in four-layer recording/readout.

In Lippmann photography, the interference of the image with its reflection onto a mirror in contact with the photographic
emulsion allows, for each pixel of the image, the recording of Bragg gratings. Removing the mirror, processing the plate
and reading out these Bragg gratings with a white light source diffracts the very colours used for recording and thus
reproduces the images in colours. Using Lippmann photography as a data storage technique was proposed in the 1960th:
for a given pixel, and to each recording wavelength is associated one bit of data, several bits being recorded at the same
pixel. In this paper, we revisit this data storage technique and we propose and demonstrate an homodyne detection to
improve the efficiency of Lippmann data storages. The proposed homodyne geometry also presents the advantage to
simplify the architecture: the Lippmann mirror required for recording is kept in place for data retrieving. Such an
homodyne readout could also be applied to enhance the detected signals in other holographic approaches.

A stress-induced curved \micro actuator with a grating attached at the end is demonstrated for recordable optical
storage applications. The actuator and the grating were fabricated using a two-layer poly-silicon and one-layer silicon
nitride micro-machining process. Three diffracted beams with equal intensity from the grating were generated when a
voltage is applied to the actuator to switch its position. The single-beam and multi-beam configurations can be used for
writing and reading data in the disc, respectively.

In an optical pick-up head, the objective lens actuator is a key component used to move the objective lens to the exact
position for focusing the laser spot on the disc recording layer and keeping the laser spot following certain track on the
disc. In order to be used in a compact pick-up head for high density drives, the objective lens actuator must be compact
and controllable in focusing, tracking, and radial tilt directions. In this paper, an electromagnetic three-axis-controllable
actuator with a novel structure was designed and verified. The read tests done by using a pick-up head with the actuator
designed in this work proved the feasibility of this design.

In this paper the focusing effect of flat metallic-slit array in micro-meter scale area is discussed and the role of
surface plasmons waves inside slits is recognized. A proximate relationship between the equivalent focal length
and slit material, slit geometrical parameters is built. The theoretically derived focal length and that from Finite
Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulation is proved to be in good agreement. Additionally, FWHM of focal
point, focal depth and intensity of focal point for the slit array with invariant slit width and the slit array with
variant slit width are compared as well. The slit array with varied slit width is found to have the better
performance than slit array with invariant slit width.

Scaling the areal density, while maintaining a proper balance between media signal-to-noise,
thermal stability and writability will soon require an alternative recording technology. Heat
Assisted Magnetic Recording (HAMR) can achieve this balance by allowing high anisotropy
media to be written by heating the media during the writing process (e.g. by laser light) to
temporarily lower the anisotropy. Three major challenges of designing a HAMR head that tightly
focuses light and collocates it with the magnetic field are discussed: 1) Magnetic Field Delivery,
2)Optical Delivery, and 3) Integration of Magnetic & Optical Field Delivery Components.
Thousands of these HAMR heads were built into sliders and HGAs, and optical and scanning
electron micrograph images are shown. Scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM)
characterization of the HAMR head shows that the predicted ~λ/4 full-width half-maximum
(FWHM) spot size can be achieved using 488 nm light (124 nm was achieved). SNOM images
also show that wafer level fabricated apertures were able to effectively eliminate sidelobes from
the focused spot intensity profile. An MFM image of HAMR media shows that Non-HAMR
(laser power off) was not able to write transitions in the HAMR specific media even at very high
write currents, but transitions could be written using HAMR (laser power on), even at lower write
currents. A cross-track profile is shown for a fully integrated HAMR head where the magnetic
pole physical width is ~350 nm, but the written track is ~200nm, which demonstrates HAMR. A
HAMR optimization contour shows that there is an optimum write current and laser power and
that simply going to the highest write current and laser power does not lead to the best recording.
Lastly, some prospects for advancing HAMR are given and a few key problems to be solved are
mentioned.

An efficient and compact method of introducing light into a magnetic recording head
for use in Heat Assisted Magnetic Recording (HAMR) is proposed. The technique uses a polymer
waveguide to source light into a novel metallic structure consisting of a sub-wavelength C-aperture
waveguide with a 90° bend and a tapered section. The structure is modeled using Finite
Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulations and it is shown that the 90° bend allows for low loss
near-field optical access into a conventional magnetic recording head while the tapered C-waveguide
allows for maximum input coupling and a minimum spot size at the recording media.

The modeling for investigating the thermal effect on slider in heat assisted magnetic recording is built and its verification
is conducted by comparing the simulation results and experiment results. The temperature distribution on the slider
induced by locally heated media in 1Tb/in2 is simulated and the results show that the effect is within a very small zone
on the bottom surface. The temperature changes on other surfaces are less than 0.1°C, which can be negligible.

Differential phase detection (DPD) is the most popular tracking error detection method for read-only optical discs (ROM
discs). However, DPD tracking-error signals deteriorate for high-density discs such as over 30-GB Blu-ray discs (BDs)
where zero-cross detection becomes inaccurate. To solve this problem, we propose a new zero-cross-detection-free DPD
(ZF-DPD) method by applying the least-mean-square (LMS) algorithm adaptive equalizer. We experimentally confirmed
its effectiveness for a high-density (33.3 GB/layer) four-layer BD-ROM disc.

The high gain servo controller with complex zeros was proposed1. The controller can realize a much higher gain with the
same servo bandwidth. We applied the controller to Blu-ray disc drives, and confirmed decrease of servo error and
improvement of resistance to vibration. On the other hand, we observed the controller increased an overshoot of an initial
response. We applied the initial value compensation2, and confirmed suppression of the overshoot.

High data transfer rate has been demanded for data storage devices along increasing the storage capacity. In order to
increase the transfer rate, high-speed data processing techniques in read-channel devices are required. Generally, parallel
architecture is utilized for the high-speed digital processing. We have developed a new architecture of Interpolated
Timing Recovery (ITR) to achieve high-speed data transfer rate and wide capture-range in read-channel devices for the
information storage channels. It facilitates the parallel implementation on large-scale-integration (LSI) devices.

Using metal/Si materials as a recording layer, we have achieved good results for a SR (super resolution) WORM (write-once
read many) disc. Mainly by controlling metal composition and the ratio of metal to Si of recording layer, signal
qualities were greatly enhanced. At the mark length of 75nm, the best CNR (carrier to noise) was about 45dB, write
power was reduced down to 6.5mW, and minimum LFN (low frequency noise) was about 11.7dB. Jitters of single tone
pattern mark for every length marks from 2T through 8T were below 10%. Readout signal was stable over 2.25×105
times reading. So-called "3T-problem" was not observed.

Super-resolution near-field optical disk is one of the solutions to overcome diffraction limit and achieve high
density optical recording. In this paper, a structure of super-resolution near-field phase-change optical disk with
a thin thermal shield layer behind the recording layer is proposed. The optical disks with the new structure were
studied theoretically and experimentally. Thermal simulation shows that the thermal shield layer can reduce the
phase change layer temperature, thus improve the thermal stability of the disks. The disks with this structure
were fabricated and characterized. The experiment results are in good agreement with the simulation results.

Copying speed is an important characteristic for optical read-only memory (ROM) replication systems. The copying
speed of holographic ROM replication is, however, limited by small energy efficiency of the optical system due to the
small diffraction efficiency of multiplexed holograms. In this paper we propose new holographic ROM replication
systems with a photorefractive amplifier, and analyze the speed gain performance. We improve energy efficiency
significantly and speed up replication by amplifying weak diffraction signal beams using photorefractive wave mixing.
Our new theory and numerical calculations revealed that achievable speed gain can be evaluated from only a single
dimensionless parameter that is the product of the three as follows: (i) the pump beam intensity ratio in the amplifier, (ii)
the ratio of the photopolymer and photorefractive sensitivities, and (iii) the dynamic range per hologram of the copy
medium. In current holographic recording systems, a practical copying speed gain of more than 10 is achievable with
currently available photorefractive materials.

Holographic Storage Characteristics of PQ/poly(methyl methacrylate) have been significantly improved by
doping metallic ion Yb+3 and Er+3. The hybrid materials display significant enhancement in the holographic
characteristics. The diffraction efficiency promote to 59% with Yb+3, to 47% with Er+3 from the undoped sample
is 40%. The increment is up to 47% in Yb+3 sample; the dynamic range enhance to 2.12 and 1.58 on Yb+3 and
Er+3 containing sample individually in comparison to 1.16 for the undoped copolymer. The increment of
dynamic range is up to 82% for Yb+3 containing sample. The related mechanism of these changes is preliminary

A holographic data storage simulator for the combined multiplexing method which consists of spatial shift, peristrophic,
and focus-shift multiplexing has been developed. In the combined multiplexing method, wedge prisms were used to
realize the focus-shift multiplexing, so we gave linear phase modulations on the reference beams to represent the effect
of wedge prisms in the simulation and successfully got a good agreement between the simulated and experimental results
on the diffraction efficiency characteristics. The diffraction efficiency decreases rapidly as the focal position of the
reference beams are shifted, which indicates that it is possible to enlarge the capacity of the holographic data storage by
the focus-shift multiplexing.

Asymmetric shift selectivity control is studied based on the collinear holographic information storage system. Pixel
patterns for asymmetric shift selectivity of holograms were designed. Characteristics of the shift selectivity were
calculated and tested using a static collinear system. The shift selectivity control was performed and the asymmetric shift
selectivity was proven successfully. The hologram with asymmetric shift selectivity was applied to the precision
alignment process for realizing media interchangeability. Here the position sensing beam should be aligned with the
holographic recording beam. It played a significant role as a calibration hologram in the demonstration of the process
using a dynamic collinear system including rotating holographic recording disk media fully equipped such as the pit
layer.

We analyzed the effects of an external shock on a collision problem in a solid immersion lens (SIL) based near-field
recording (NFR) through a shock response analysis and proposed a possible solution to this problem with adopting a
protector and safety mode. With this proposed method the collision between SIL and media can be avoided. We showed
possible solution for contamination problem in SIL based NFR through a numerical air flow analysis. We also
introduced possible solid immersion lens designs to increase the fabrication and assembly tolerances of an optical head
with replicated lens. Potentially, these research results could advance NFR technology for commercial product.

We demonstrated a high-intensity bowtie-shaped nano-aperture Vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL). A
maximum power of 188μW is achieved from a VCSEL with an 180nm bowtie aperture at a wavelength of 970nm.
Simulation shows the near-field full width at half maximum intensity spot size 20nm away from the bowtie aperture is
64×66nm2. The peak near-field intensity from the bowtie-aperture VCSEL is estimated to be as high as 47mW/μm2. This
intensity is high enough to realize near-field optical data storage and the small spot size corresponds to storage densities
up to 150Gbits/in2.

An improved concept of the advanced SIL and its compensation OL of composite effective NA over 1.7 has
been designed and manufactured to achieve wider assembling tolerances, higher data capacities and better signal quality.
Very clear readout signals were measured from a 25 GB BD-like ROM media with 3 um cover layer and the applying
feasibility of the advanced SIL system in near field optical storage was confirmed. With this novel advanced SIL system
and multilayer media concept, total capacity over 500 GB per disc was expected to be accomplished.

A solid immersion lens (SIL) is described with NA = 2.64 that is fabricated
from a two-step process using a large BK7 glass hemisphere and a small GaP hemisphere.
The Gallium Phosphide (GaP) hemisphere has a radius 114μm, and is cemented in the
center of BK7 SIL with index-matching epoxy. The BK7 SIL thickness is accommodated
to have both BK7 SIL and GaP SIL in an image centric configuration. The two-step GaP
SIL is tested on an induced polarization imaging system. Induced polarization pupil
images, the native polarization image and induced polarization image of a DVD RW
sample are given in this paper.

A single meniscus aspherical lens and air-spaced spherical lenses having negative and positive
powers are identified as minimum aberration configurations for page-based holographic recording
systems. Further correction of pupil aberrations makes the lens system usable both for holographic and
for surface recording, and the lens is realizable by using two air-spaced apsherics. Two air-spaced
apsherics can attain high an imaging NA of 0.7 for holographic recording only, and an NA of 0.45 for a
combination of holographic and surface recording.

We present a new class of modulation codes based on permutation coding which satisfy the channel coding constraint
suitable for the digital holographic data storage, and which simultaneously provide strong error correction at high code
rates. The channel decoding scheme is based on the true maximum likelihood detection realized using a newly
developed efficient algorithm. The sparse permutation codes of large block sizes closely approach the information
theoretic limits for the binary channel data capacity.

We have developed a single-side dual-layer rewritable HD DVD media having a larger capacity of 40 GB
(20 GB per layer) for the optical system with the NA of 0.65 and the wavelength of 405 nm, and achieved the
good recording characteristics. For both layers, the same track pitch of 0.34 μm as HD DVD-RAM was used.
We applied more accurate thermal analysis to the dual-layer rewritable media. It was expected that the effect
of the cross-erase was very small. By optimizing thermal balance of dual-layer media, the good recording
characteristics were obtained for both layers with enough tilt margins. The feasibility of the dual-layer
rewritable media of 40 GB user data capacity was shown for HD DVD system.

High speed HD DVD-R disc with low-to-high polarity organic dye was developed. For development of organic
dye, Type A and Type B having different properties in sensitivity and read stability were examined. 4x speed
recording is possible with both Type A and Type B. Furthermore, in type B, the sufficient signal characteristics
were obtained at 5x speed recording for single layer disc and 2x speed recording for dual layer disc.

The relation of the local structure of the phase-change recording material and the interface layer has not been
clarified while we already reported that the interface layer affects the electronic state of recording material by
using the HX-PES method. It is necessary to understand more detailed physical phenomenon for crystallization
mechanism of recording layer in order to develop the high-speed and higher density rewritable optical
recording media. The influence of the interface layer to the local structure for atomic arrangement of a GeBiTe
phase-change material was investigated by using XAFS on the actual rewritable HD DVD media. The XAFS
signal and EXAFS oscillation from the actual media is obtained nondestructively. It has been shown that the
interface layer influence slightly the local atomic arrangement of the recording layer, while the electronic state
of recording layer is changed by the presence of the interface layer.

Phase-change wet-etching technology using GeSbTe phase-change films are developed. Selective etching between an
amorphous and a crystalline phase can be carried out with an alkaline etchant of NaOH. The degree of etching was
investigated by optical images using an optical microscope and the transmittance between the crystalline and amorphous
films coated on transparent substrate during an etching process. Etching selectivity is dependent not only on the
concentration of the alkaline etchant but also on a film structure. Specifically, metal films for a heat control cause
marked effects on the etching properties of GeSbTe film. Surviving amorphous pits can be obtained with Al metal layer,
however etched amorphous pits are seen with Ag metal layer. An opposite selective etching behavior can be observed
between samples with two different metal layers.

This work demonstrates the feasibility of composite thin film containing nano-scale recording particles to
high-density optical data storage. For an HD-DVD format "nano"-optical disk containing such a nano-composite
layer, modulation higher than 0.5 was achieved when 11T and 4T signals were respectively written into the disk
by using a blue-laser dynamic tester. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) characterization attributed the
recording mechanism to the grain coalescence/coarsening and crystallinity change of nano-recording particles
which, in turn, results in sufficient reflectivity difference for signal readout. The utilization of nano-composite
recording layers may drastically simplify the optical disk structure and thus is a promising alternative for
next-generation write-once data recording.
