An optical pickup includes a light source emitting a laser beam and an optical path changing unit altering a traveling path of an incident beam. An objective lens, disposed on an optical path between the optical path changing unit and an optical disk, focuses the incident beam from the light source to form a light spot on the optical disk of the objective lens. The optical pickup further includes a photodetector and an detecting-correcting unit, arranged on the optical path between the optical path changing unit and the objective lens, performing at least one of detecting the thickness of the optical disk and correcting aberration caused by thickness variations of the optical disk. The objective lens includes a first transmitting portion divergently transmitting an incident beam, where the first transmitting portion is at a relatively near-axis region from an optical axis of the objective lens. A second transmitting portion transmits the incident beam, where the second transmitting portion is arranged facing the first transmitting portion. A first reflecting portion condenses and reflects the incident beam from the first transmitting portion, where the first reflecting portion is formed around the second transmitting portion. A second reflecting portion condenses and reflects the incident beam from the first reflecting portion towards the second transmitting portion, where the second reflecting portion is formed around the first transmitting portion.

A swing-arm type optical recording and reproducing apparatus and an optical disk applicable to the same. The optical disk includes a substrate having an information recording surface to record and reproduce an information signal, and a protective layer which is provided on the information recording surface and whose surface facing a slider is a flat even surface so that variations in a floating height of the slider can be reduced. The optical recording and reproducing apparatus further includes, an optical head having a light source provided at a swing arm to emit light of a predetermined wavelength; an optical path changing means provided in the optical path of the light emitted from the light source for changing the proceeding path of incident light; a collimating lens installed at the slider to preliminarily converge the light emitted from the light source and entering via the optical path changing means; an objective lens installed at the slider to converge the light which is emitted from the light source and enters via the optical path changing means to form an optical spot on the optical disk; and a photodetector to receive the light which is reflected from the optical disk and enters via the objective lens, the collimating lens, and the optical path changing means. The optical head detects an information signal and an error signal in order to reduce defocus due to variations in ambient temperature and variations in the wavelength of the light of the light source.

An optical pickup of an optical disk drive. The optical pickup includes a laser beam source for generating a laser beam; a pickup base having an objective lens for projecting the laser beam generated from the laser beam source to an information recording surface of an optical disk; a variation adjusting plate which is movably disposed on the pickup base to be moved in vertical and lateral directions, and has a rotational hole formed at a central portion thereof; and a rotation adjusting plate including a rotational section having a predetermined curvature which is inserted into the rotational hole of the variation adjusting plate, and with a laser beam source fixed therein, the rotation adjusting plate being rotated with respect to the variation adjusting plate. An optical system including a collimating lens and a reflective mirror is fixed to the pickup base. Since the light path with respect to the field angle and the beam shift is adjusted by moving and/or rotating the light emitting point of the laser beam source with respect to the light axis of the collimating lens, the size of the optical pickup becomes smaller. Further, since the collimating lens and the light source are fixed to the respective structures, the light path is controlled regardless of the focal distance of the collimating lens. Accordingly, if the focal distance of the collimating lens has to be lengthened, the beam shift and the field angle can be precisely adjusted without enlarging the optical pickup.
摘要:
An optical focusing system which uses a light beam emitted from a light source, includes a refractive surface on one side of the optical focusing system and having a first radius of curvature, a first reflection surface on the above one side, surrounding the refractive surface and having a second radius of curvature being different from the first radius of curvature, a transparent beam focusing surface on the other side of the optical focusing system, and a second reflection surface on the above other side and surrounding the beam focusing surface. The refractive surface refracts an incident light beam, the second reflection surface reflects a light beam refracted by the refractive surface toward the first reflection surface, and the first reflection surface focuses a laser light beam reflected from the second reflection surface on the beam focusing surface as a focused beam spot. The optical focusing system can be used in an optical pickup. The optical pickup uses the optical focusing system to generate, from a light beam e.g. laser light emitted from a light source, a beam spot used for recording or reading information to a recording medium. The optical pickup uses a near field effect provided by an optical focusing system according to the present invention, to allow a superior density of recording or reading. Further, the optical focusing system according to the invention can use a light beam having a beam diameter smaller than that of the laser beam used for an existing optical focusing system for forming a near field. Thus, the optical pickup according to the invention can record or read information on an optical disk having a surface recording density of 10 Gbit/inch2 or more. Even if an incident light beam inclination occurs due to movement of the disk or the optical pickup, information can be recorded on or read from a disk accurately. Also, the assembly of the optical focusing system and the adjustment of the assembled optical focusing system are easily performed.

The elliptically curved surfaces have different radii of curvature arranged symmetrical with respect to a central axis for focusing the incident light to form a tight beam spot on a recording plane of the recording medium.
