Abstract
A reference beam telescope, which is also referred to as a relay imaging system for a reference beam, using reflection optics is disclosed. The relay imaging system according to the present invention comprises at least one concave mirror and one convex mirror. A reference beam is reflected at least twice by the concave mirror and once by the convex mirror. The output reference beam is collimated if the input reference beam is collimated. This relay imaging system is used in a holographic storage system to deliver the reference beam to the holographic storage medium. In particular, this system can be used for angular multiplexing in a holographic storage system.
