Performance trade-offs in holographic recording in LiNbO_3 crystals

摘要

We use the quantitative measures for dynamic range, sensitivity, and persistence in holographic recording to compare the performance of singly-doped and doubly-doped LiNbO_3 crystals. We explain the trade-offs among the performance measures in both singly-doped and doubly-doped crystals. We show that the range of performance that can be obtained using doubly-doped crystals is much larger than that obtained using singly-doped ones.
