Holographic printer using mechanical shutter having adjustable exposure time and no vibration

Abstract

Provided is a holographic printer using a mechanical shutter having adjustable exposure time and no vibration. The holographic printer according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a light source; a modulator for generating a holographic fringe pattern in hogel units; a stage on which a hologram recording medium is placed; a driving part for moving the position of the stage in hogel units; and a shutter for periodically exposing an object light due to the holographic fringe pattern generated by the modulator to the hologram recording medium. The shutter comprises: a rotation plate having formed therein an arc-shaped opening which exposes the object light due to the holographic fringe pattern; and a motor for rotating the rotation plate. Therefore, the exposure period and exposure time of the shutter can be variously adjusted by adjusting the rotational state of the rotation plates having the arc-shaped opening formed therein.
