The deposition of reflector after writing (DRAW) process has been proposed for the fabrication of reflective-type holographic read-only memories. In the DRAW process, a reflector is deposited on a recording medium after signal writing, resulting in the reduction of noise holograms written by reflected beams from a reflector in the write process. Significant improvements are experimentally confirmed in read and write (R/W) performances in DRAW-processed holographic media. The combination of the DRAW process and an aromatic photopolymer recording material realizes low noise, high signal-to-noise ratio, and low symbol error rate characteristics at large multiplexing numbers up to 1020. In conventional reflective-type holographic media, ghost noise is superimposed on the readout signal, causing deterioration in R/W characteristics. The wave vector analyses clarify the mechanism by which the noise holograms are written and ghost noise is superimposed on the signal beam in the conventional media.
