摘要:
A CD-DVD compatible optical pickup in which both on-axis and off-axis light form a circular light spot on a recording surface of an optical recording medium, and an optical recording and/or reproducing apparatus using the same. The CD-DVD compatible optical pickup includes an optical output module, an objective lens, an optical path conversion unit, a photodetector, and an actuator. The optical output module has a mount and light sources emitting light of different wavelengths. The objective lens focuses the emitted light onto two types of optical recording media. The optical path conversion unit between the optical output module and objective lens, converts incident light. The photodetector receives beams emitted from the light sources, reflected from the optical recording media, and then passed through the optical path conversion unit, detecting data and error signals. The actuator has a movable member, moving the objective lens and compensating focusing and tracking error signals.

A diffraction element for an optical pick-up apparatus is capable of precisely controlling the tracking of the pick-up apparatus. The diffraction element includes a diffraction grating divided into a first, a second, and a third region. The second region is located between the first and third regions. Any one of the first region and the third region is inclined at a predetermined angle θ with respect to the second region.
摘要:
A photo detector for use in an optical pickup apparatus that detects a beam reflected from the disc, and includes a substrate for transmitting one main beam and two sub beams reflected from the optical disc; a liquid crystal for refracting the two sub beams, that are transmitted through the substrate, at different refractive indexes according to the wavelength of a laser beam outputted from the laser diode; an electrode material for supplying power to the liquid crystal; a switch for adjusting the magnitude of an applied voltage to the electrode material; and a photodiode on which the main beam and the refracted sub beams while transmitting the substrate and the liquid crystal are projected, and transformed into electric signals. By refracting the beams refracted from the disc at a proper refractive index, the ±1st-order beams can be projected onto the same position, irrespective of the wavelengths.
