Abstract
The effect of incoherence of the readout light on the level of crosstalk in wavelength-division multiplexing of reflection holograms is studied. The l evel of crosstalk is determined theoretically as a function of the spectral width of the readout light, the total number of multiplexed holograms, and the frequency difference between neighboring holograms. Good agreement is obtained between the theory and experiment for the case of two sinusoidal g ratings. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S1063- 7842(99)02409-5].
