Abstract

A method of recording holograms includes: generating a first signal-beam from a signal-beam source and a first reference beam from a reference-beam source; recording a first hologram in a holographic medium from an interference between the first signal beam and the first reference beam; shifting the reference-beam source after the act of recording the first hologram; generating a second signal beam from the signal-beam source and a second reference beam from the reference-beam source after the act of shifting the reference-beam source following the recording of the first hologram; and recording a second hologram in the holographic medium from an interference between the second signal beam and the second reference beam.
