Abstract
A photo-to-photo transducer is composed by laminating a photoconductive layer member and a photo-modulation layer member including liquid crystals of scattering type each other and disposing the members between two transparent electrodes. The transducer is operated as follows: a specified voltage is applied across the electrodes to operate the photo-modulation layer member in the vicinity of operation threshold level thereof; an electro-magnetic radiation beam for writing information is projected onto the photoconductive layer member through the electrode at the side thereof; and an electro-magnetic radiation beam for reading the information is projected onto the photo-modulation layer member through the electrode at the side thereof, thus the electro-magnetic radiation beam for reading the information is modulated accordingly with intensity of the electro-magnetic radiation beam for writing the information.
