INTRODUCTION It is estimated that until now people have produced more than 5 exabytes (5 billion gigabytes) of data, the majority of which is in digital form. Since this figure is always growing and analogue media is constantly being converted to digital, new methods of storing this data are needed. Currently the two main storage methods i.e. magnetic and optical are just about keeping ahead of these needs; unfortunately this is not always going to be the case. Holographic data storage is a potential replacement technology in the area of high capacity data storage currently dominated by magnetic and conventional optical data storage. 3. Different types of Data storage systems They are • Magnetic Data storage • Optical data storage 3.1. Magnetic data storage Magnetic storage and magnetic recording are terms from engineering referring to the storage of data on a magnetized medium. Magnetic storage uses different patterns of magnetization in a magnetizable material to store data and is a form of non-volatile memory. Some of the major storage devices that comes under magnetic data storage systems are • Magnetic disk • & Floppy disk 3.1.1 Magnetic Disk: Hard disks were invented in the 1950s. They started as large disks up to 20 inches in diameter holding just a few megabytes. Magnetic disk is a plastic disk coated with magnetic material and used for storing computer programs and data as a series of magnetic spots. Most computers contain a hard disk unit for general storage. Hard magnetic disks can store larger amounts of data and come in cartridges that slot into a special drive unit. Structure and working On a hard disk (magnetic disk), data is stored in the magnetic coating of the disk‟s platters. The platter is a flat disk of either alloy or glass, with a spindle at the centre. Modern platters generally have a diameter of 3.5” in desktops or 2.5” in laptops, although smaller drives are available for devices that require a micro-drive. The spindle is rotated by an electric motor, and this cause the platter to spin. The speed at which the platter spins is measured in RPM and a higher speed is usually reflective of a higher performance, disk, in terms of data writing and reading. The magnetic media holds the binary data as with tapes and floppy disks. The data is read from the surface of the platter by a set of „heads‟ which are fixed so that they can only move between the centre of the platter and the outside edge. The heads are held just above the magnetic media by actuator arms that facilitate this movement across the disk‟s platter surface. The heads are not designed to touch the platter surface as physical contact can cause damage to the magnetic media. Each platter has a top side and an underside, and there is usually a head for both. Therefore, a hard disk drive with 5 platters would have 10 heads. When the disk is not in use, the heads are „parked‟, usually at the outside edge of the platter. Data in the magnetic media is organized into cylinders - concentric tracks on the media that are further divided into sectors. A sector is the smallest allocatable logical unit on a drive and usually, but not always, is 512 bytes in size. Next, the drive moves the heads over the appropriate track on a platter. The time it takes to move the heads is called the seek time. Once over the correct track, the drive waits while the platters rotate the desired sector under the head. The amount of time that takes is called the drive's latency. The shorter the seek time and latency, the faster the drive can do its work. When the drive electronics determine that a head is over the correct sector to write the data, the drive sends electrical pulses to that head. The pulses produce a magnetic field that alters the magnetic surface of the platter. The variations recorded there now represent the data. Reading data complements the recording process. The drive positions the read portion of the head over the correct track, and then waits for the correct sector to orbit around. When the particular magnetic specks that represent your data in the right sector and track pass under the read head, the drive's electronics detect the small magnetic changes and convert them back into bits. Once the drive checks the bits for errors and fixes any it sees, it sends the data back to the operating system. Below is the diagram of the hard disk with platters, spindle and the head. 3.1.2 Floppy disks Floppy disks are smaller, simpler, and cheaper disk units that consist of flexible, removable, plastic, diskette coated with the magnetic material. The diskette is enclosed in plastic jacket, which has an opening where the read/write head makes contacts with diskette. A hole in the centre allows a spindle mechanism in the disk drive to position and rotate the diskette. Information recorded on floppy disks by combining the clock and data information along each track using Manchester encoding. Disks encoded in this way are said to have single destiny. The main features of floppy disks are small physical size and low cost. But this is offset by smaller storage capacity longer access time and higher failure than hard disk. The floppy disks have been superseded by the emergence of rewritable compact disks having higher capacities. 3.2. Optical data storage Today's meaning of optical data storage refers to storage systems that use light for recording and retrieval of information. Optical recording systems potentially have much greater reliability than magnetic recording systems since there is a much larger distance between the read/write element and the moving media. Therefore, there is no wear associated with repeated use of the optical systems. Another advantage of the optical recording systems over the best performing magnetic recording systems - hard drives - is their removability. The main disadvantage of optical storage when compared to magnetic is slower random data access. This partially comes from the design of the relatively large (and heavy) optical heads. Optical drives of all kinds operate on the same principle of detecting variations in the optical properties of the media surface. CD and DVD drives detect changes in the light intensity, MO drives - changes in the light polarization. All optical storage systems work with reflected light. Some of the major optical data storage technologies are • CD Technology. • DVD Technology. • Blue ray disk Technology. • Holographic data storage technology. 3.2.1 CD Technology: The first generation of CD was developed by sony and Philips corporations, for audio systems. To provide high quality audio production and reproduction, 16-bit samples Of the analog signals are taken at 44100 samples per second. The CDs were required to hold at least an hour of music. Structure of a CD A CD is a fairly simple piece of plastic, about four one-hundredths (4/100) of an inch (1.2 mm) thick. During manufacturing, this material is impressed with microscopic bumps arranged as a single, continuous, extremely long spiral track of data. Latera thin, reflective aluminium layer is sputtered onto the disc, covering the bumps. The CD can store up to 600Mbs of data.

This CHDS system consists of laser diodes, photorefractive crystal, spatial light modulator, photodetector array, and I/O electronic interface. In operation, pages of information would be recorded and retrieved with random access and high-speed. The non-volatile, rad-hard characteristics of the holographic memory will provide a revolutionary memory technology to enhance mission capabilities for all NASA’s Earth Science Mission. JPL is investigating an innovative angular multiplexing scheme for the holographic data storage to maximize the storage capacity, data transfer rate, and minimize the system volume. An experimental Liquid Crystal Beam Steering Spatial Light Modulator has been developed, with a industrial collaborator, to enable high-speed, high angular- resolution, random access beam steering for storing tens of thousand of page of holographic data in a cubic photorefractive crystal. In this paper, recent technology progress in developing this CHDS at JPL will be presented.

  • Introduction to Advanced Semiconductor Memories
    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO ADVANCED SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORIES 1.1. SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORIES OVERVIEW The goal of Advanced Semiconductor Memories is to complement the material already covered in Semiconductor Memories. The earlier book covered the fol- lowing topics: random access memory technologies (SRAMs and DRAMs) and their application to specific architectures; nonvolatile technologies such as the read-only memories (ROMs), programmable read-only memories (PROMs), and erasable PROMs in both ultraviolet erasable (UVPROM) and electrically erasable (EEPROM) versions; memory fault modeling and testing; memory design for testability and fault tolerance; semiconductor memory reliability; semiconductor memories radiation effects; advanced memory technologies; and high-density memory packaging technologies [1]. This section provides a general overview of the semiconductor memories topics that are covered in Semiconductor Memories. In the last three decades of semiconductor memories' phenomenal growth, the DRAMs have been the largest volume volatile memory produced for use as main computer memories because of their high density and low cost per bit advantage. SRAM densities have generally lagged a generation behind the DRAM. However, the SRAMs offer low-power consumption and high-per- formance features, which makes them practical alternatives to the DRAMs. Nowadays, a vast majority of SRAMs are being fabricated in the NMOS and CMOS technologies (and a combination of two technologies, also referred to as the mixed-MOS) for commodity SRAMs. 1 2 INTRODUCTION TO ADVANCED SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORIES MOS Memory Market ($M) Non-Memory IC Market ($M) Memory % of Total IC Market 300,000 40% 250,000 30% 200,00U "o Q 15 150,000 20% 2 </> a. o 100,000 2 10% 50,000 0 0% 96 97 98 99 00 01* 02* 03* 04* 05* MOS Memory Market ($M) 36,019 29,335 22,994 32,288 49,112 51,646 56,541 70,958 94,541 132,007 Non-Memory IC Market ($M) 78,923 90,198 86,078 97,930 126,551 135,969 148,512 172,396 207,430 262,172 Memory % of Total IC Market 31% .

  • A Study About Non-Volatile Memories
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 29 July 2016 doi:10.20944/preprints201607.0093.v1 1 Article 2 A Study about Non‐Volatile Memories 3 Dileep Kumar* 4 Department of Information Media, The University of Suwon, Hwaseong‐Si South Korea ; [email protected] 5 * Correspondence: [email protected] ; Tel.: +82‐31‐229‐8212 6 7 8 Abstract: This paper presents an upcoming nonvolatile memories (NVM) overview. Non‐volatile 9 memory devices are electrically programmable and erasable to store charge in a location within the 10 device and to retain that charge when voltage supply from the device is disconnected. The 11 non‐volatile memory is typically a semiconductor memory comprising thousands of individual 12 transistors configured on a substrate to form a matrix of rows and columns of memory cells. 13 Non‐volatile memories are used in digital computing devices for the storage of data. In this paper 14 we have given introduction including a brief survey on upcoming NVMʹs such as FeRAM, MRAM, 15 CBRAM, PRAM, SONOS, RRAM, Racetrack memory and NRAM. In future Non‐volatile memory 16 may eliminate the need for comparatively slow forms of secondary storage systems, which include 17 hard disks. 18 Keywords: Non‐volatile Memories; NAND Flash Memories; Storage Memories 19 PACS: J0101 20 21 22 1. Introduction 23 Memory is divided into two main parts: volatile and nonvolatile. Volatile memory loses any 24 data when the system is turned off; it requires constant power to remain viable. Most kinds of 25 random access memory (RAM) fall into this category.

  • Holographic Memory (Holomem) Introduction & Tutorial
    Holographic Memory (Holomem) Introduction & Tutorial by Dr. Richard G. Zech1 My CeBIT 20012 Report contains a substantial analysis of holographic memories. The motivation for this effort was a claim by a German startup Optostor AG3 that it had essentially invented the "perpetual motion machine" of data storage. The company provided a read-only demonstration of its technology at CeBIT 2001, which, of course, came no where near matching its claims for storage density and capacity. Although I had not been expecting an actual operating holomem at CeBIT 2001, I was pleased to see it. I spoke at some length with Optostor's technology director to learn as much as possible. My intent was to give them a full and positive write up. However, I quickly realized he knew little about the technology, and, worse, the numbers he was quoting were impossible to obtain. I shared my concerns, and showed him how to calculate the correct numbers. I must have made an impression, because, Optostor reduced its claim for storage density (although the proposed new capacity still could not be achieved for other than a "write-only" holomem). After researching the matter carefully, I concluded that as research scientist and engineer who helped pioneer this field, I had duty to speak up. Rather than simply condemning what I thought might be a fraud, I decided to simply present the facts carefully analyzed, proceeded by an introduction and tutorial to holomems. The reader can then decide. The bottom line is a detailed exposition of the basics of holomems, supported by specific data provided by the excellent Holomem research of IBM.

To accommodate new demands and applications, there has been an improvement in the storage capacity of such devices. However, limitations in the optics have hindered the growth of these devices. The demand for bigger, faster memories has led to significant improvements in conventional memory technologies—hard disk drives & optical disks. But there is strong proof that these two-dimensional storage technologies are approaching fundamental limits- as the wavelength of light and the thermal stability of stored bits. Such limitations may be difficult to surmount. Storing data in three dimensions is a suitable approach to overcome these limitations and to also increase the storage level by a large amount.

  • Data Storage: Pushing the Physical Limits
    Report Number 2 January, 2003 Data Storage: Pushing the Physical Limits Executive Summary The gap between data storage research and the market has never been smaller. In the next five years, data storage technology is likely to advance along the familiar course of electronic memory chips, magnetic disk drives and CD-like removable media. Meanwhile, research in materials science and nanotechnology is paving the way for future storage media with huge capacities. Patterned media, which should be ready for applications in five years, is likely to bridge the gap between today’s magnetic disks and future technologies. There are several new media that could be ready for practical application in five to ten years: What to Look For • Arrays of nanowires Disk drives: • Patterns of electric charges or magnetic Patterned media particles stamped into thin films of plastic Terabit-per-square-inch patterned media • Holograms Very large, extraordinary or ballistic magnetoresistance • Single or small groups of molecules, including carbon nanotubes Optical devices: Twenty gigabytes on a CD-size disk via blue lasers Superfast microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) Practical near-field technology storage devices that use thousands of read/write heads, Practical holographic technology each positioned over a small area of recording media, could also be ready within the five to ten year time frame. Memory devices: The future storage media with the potential to store the Molecular layers most data per square inch is the atom. A prototype from the Nanowire transistors University of Wisconsin records bits as the presence or Bits in single carbon nanotubes absence of individual atoms, and has a capacity of 250 Bits in single molecules terabits per square inch, enough to store 10 DVDs worth of data on a pinhead.

Abstract:- Nowadays due to pervasiveness of using digital devices throughout all the world and Dramatic increase of digital data storage speed, transfer rate, quality of data, etc. these devices need to new infrastructures for handling and supplying data with high speed and volume. One of these devices that will change market of optical disks is HVD. HVD disk uses holographic technology for reading/writing data that causes higher volume of storage and data transfer rate toward other optical storages. Keywords:- Holography, laser, servo data, HVD, optical Storage I. BRIEF HISTORY OF HOLOGRAPHY Holography was first used by Denis Gabor in the 1940s with a mercury arc lamp. His discovery did not immediately attract much attention due to the „incoherent‟ nature of the mercury light, and the resulting low quality results.With the 1960s invention of the laser (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation), holography now had the „coherent‟ light source needed to produce high-quality images. Coherent light is monochromatic, of a single wavelength, and from a single point source. In 1962 Emmett Leith and Juris Upatnieks create first laser transmission holograph of 3D objects. In 1962 Dr.
