[0056] The recording unit is configured for generating a signal light beam 62 and a reference light beam 61, which are introduced into the storage medium 6 at a certain angle respectively to generate a hologram by interference and exposure on a recording layer 120 of the storage medium 6. The recording unit includes an optical path for signal light beam, an optical path for reference light beam, and a relay lens group. The relay lens group includes a fixed first Fourier lens 201 and a movable second Fourier lens 202. The irradiation positions and angles of the signal light beam and the reference light beam can be adjusted by moving the second Fourier lens 202.

[0057] The imaging unit 5 includes a camera 130, which is used for collecting a reproduced data page and monitoring the diffraction efficiency and the signal-to-noise ratio of the reproduced data page. If the diffraction efficiency and the signal-to-noise ratio are lower, the positions of the second Fourier lens 202 and the storage medium 6 are adjusted until the diffraction efficiency and the signal-to-noise ratio reach a maximum value. In order to convert the frequency-domain light field of the data page reproduced by the reference light beam into a spatial-domain light field for imaging, a fourth Fourier lens 103 is disposed prior to the camera 130 to perform an inverse Fourier transform on the frequency-domain light field and project a spatial-domain image onto the image sensor target surface of the camera.

The servo laser 10 is used for generating a servo light beam 70. The beam splitting module is used for transmitting the servo light beam 70 entering the storage medium 6 from the laser and reflecting the servo light beam 70 returned by the storage medium to the signal detection module 40. The calibration lens 50 is used for adjusting the positions of a servo light spot in the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0083] In the data reading process, the holographic storage optical system in the above-mentioned embodiments achieves the calibration of the relative positions of the servo light spot, the reference light spot and the signal light spot in the following manner.

[0084] Referring to FIG. 8, before recording the hologram, the calibration hologram and the data hologram are burned, which including the following steps.

[0086] In step S12, the calibration lens 50 and the second Fourier lens 202 are fixed, and the storage medium 6 is moved so that the servo light spot is located at the calibration holographic positioning mark, and one calibration hologram is recorded at the calibration holographic positioning mark.

[0087] In step S13, the storage medium 6 is moved so that the servo light spot is located at another calibration holographic positioning mark, and a next calibration hologram is recorded at the calibration holographic positioning mark.

[0088] In step S14, step S13 is repeated several times to ensure successful recording of multiple calibration holograms.

[0089] In step S15, the storage medium is moved so that the servo light spot is located at the data holographic positioning mark, and one data hologram is recorded at the data holographic positioning mark.

[0090] In step S16, the storage medium is moved so that the servo light spot is located at another data holographic positioning mark, and a next data hologram is recorded at the data holographic positioning mark.

[0091] In step S17, step S16 is repeated to record all data holograms.

[0092] A method for determining the initial position of the calibration lens 50 and the second Fourier lens 202 in step S11 is as follows. The servo light spot is ensured to be on a plane where the optical track of the storage medium 6 is located by optical path simulation design, at the same time an interference region of the reference light beam and the signal light beam is able to effectively cover the storage medium 6, at this moment, the position where the calibration lens 50 and the second Fourier lens 202 are located is thus the initial position.

[0094] In step S21, the storage medium 6 is moved so that an optical head 4 is moved to a position near the calibration holographic positioning mark, then the calibration lens 50 is fixed;

[0095] In step S22, the wavelength of the reference light beam 61 is adjusted and the second Fourier lens 202 and the storage medium 6 are fine-tuned, and the position of the second Fourier lens 202 and the wavelength of the reference light beam 61 is fixed when the diffraction efficiency and the signal-to-noise ratio of the calibration hologram at the calibration holographic positioning mark are optimal.

[0096] In step S23, the calibration lens 50 is moved so that the servo light spot is located at the calibration holographic positioning mark, then the position of the calibration lens 50 is fixed.

[0097] In step S24, the storage medium 6 is moved so that the servo light spot is located at the next calibration holographic positioning mark, and the calibration hologram is then reproduced at the calibration holographic positioning mark.

When the servo light spot is located in the middle of the calibration holographic positioning mark or the data holographic positioning mark, the track locking error signal and the tangential push-pull signal are both located at a zero value between positive and negative maximum values.

[0102] The track locking error signal is used for detecting the case that the servo light spot deviates from the optical track. When the servo light spot is located at the center line of the optical track, the track locking error signal is 0, when the servo light spot gradually deviates from the optical track, the track locking error signal gradually tends to a maximum or minimum value, and when the servo light spot completely deviates from the optical track, the track locking error signal becomes 0.

[0103] The tangential push-pull signal is used for detecting the holographic positioning mark of the optical track. The holographic positioning mark may be a notch. When the servo light spot is located in the middle of the notch, the tangential push-pull signal is 0, when the servo light spot gradually deviates from the notch, the tangential push-pull signal gradually tends to the maximum or minimum value, and when the servo light spot deviates completely from the notch, the tangential push-pull signal becomes 0.
