Abstract
A method of improving the holographic storage of data by yielding brighter olograms with higher densities which comprises recording an interferogram of an object wave and a reference wave into a holographically recordable medium consisting of an ionic crystal initially with a random distribution of anisotropic centers, and mutually off-set at an angle of at least sin.sup..sup.-1 10.lambda./d wherein d is the crystal thickness and .lambda. the wavelength of the coherent source; and then consecutively exposing the crystal to the object wave and the reference wave, each with a .pi./2 rotation in the plane of polarization but without any change in light intensity, wavelength, or crystal temperature.
