  • Abstract
    Results obtained on an exploratory optically read ferroelectric-photoconductor storage device that utilizes the optical activity of domains in a lead-germanate crystal are reported. The device has been fabricated and tested, and good resolution and contrast were obtained. The major weakness of the device is its relatively low optical readout efficiency.
