Quasi-nonvolatile storage in Ru-doped Bi12SiO20 crystals by two-wavelength holography

Opt Express. 2012 Aug 27;20(18):19628-34. doi: 10.1364/OE.20.019628.

Abstract

Prolonged read-out process of a hologram recorded at near infrared with simultaneous green light exposure is measured in Ru-doped Bi12SiO20 crystal. The experimental results are confirmed by numerical simulations, suggesting two different traps involved in the space-charge transport mechanism. In addition, quasi-permanent holographic recording of image with fast updating speed by using two-wavelength recording is demonstrated.
