Summary

Story summary

Fujian Normal University researchers in China developed a holographic data storage system that stores information in three dimensions using light's amplitude, phase, and polarization.
Xiaodi Tan of Fujian Normal University in China led the team and used a convolutional neural network to decode the data.
The approach increases data density and speeds transmission.
Findings were published in Optica on March 27, 2026.
