摘要:
It is an object of the invention to provide a holographic laser and an optical pickup, with which it is possible to read from and write to a plurality of types of optical disks with different read wavelengths, and to achieve a more compact apparatus. The holographic laser includes for example a package, two semiconductor laser elements and a photodiode for reading out signals accommodated within the package, a holographic element positioned proximate to or in close contact with the top of a glass window, and a wavelength separating element positioned proximate to or in close contact with the top of the holographic element. The holographic laser is integrally formed as a single component.

A lens-side grating diffracts, in a direction of an emitter-side grating, two laser beams passed through the lens-side grating from an optical disk side. The emitter-side grating substantially passes the laser beam having a longer wavelength than the other laser beam, and directs it to a desired region of the light receiving element. The emitter-side grating diffracts the laser beam having a shorter wavelength than the other laser beam to direct a +1st diffracted beam of the laser beam thus diffracted to the same light receiving region as a 0th diffracted beam of the other laser beam. Such a structure may be employed that a −1st diffracted beam of the laser beam of the longer wavelength is directed to the same light receiving region as the 0th diffracted beam (passed beam) of the laser beam of the short wavelength.

An object of the invention is to provide a splitter, a light emitter, and an optical pickup apparatus which can realize a stable track servo. Because of the structure of an optical system including an objective lens (27) and a hologram pattern (25), even when the hologram pattern (25) is irradiated with a reflected light from one recording layer other than another recording layer in a focused state, first and second TES splitting portions (35, 36) are not irradiated with the reflected light from the one recording layer, but the reflected light is led to an axis vicinity portion (38) only. Accordingly, light reception by first and second TES light receiving portions (45, 46) is prevented, accurate track position information and deviation information can be positively acquired, and troubles such as the objective lens (27) being driven beyond a movable range can be eliminated.

An optical pickup can be provided, the optical pickup being capable of recording and playback of a plurality of optical disks having different specs by using light beams of different wavelengths, and further being suitable for integrating the semiconductor lasers and light receiving elements into a single package, by including: first and second semiconductor lasers adjacently disposed; a three-beam diffraction grating for generating three beams for tracking control; a second hologram element for diffracting light of the second semiconductor laser to guide it to a photosensor; a complex polarization beam splitter (PBS) for reflecting only light from the first semiconductor laser; and a first hologram element for diffracting light of the first semiconductor laser to guide it to the photosensor.

To read information from a target information recording surface reliably by canceling DC offsets in tracking-signal detection signals is provided. In effecting tracking servo by 3-beam method, auxiliary light receiving domains D3—1, D3—2, D8—1, D8—2 are provided. The auxiliary light receiving domain receives images formed by the light returned from a different information recording surface from the one targeted for reading. Sub beams of ± first-order diffracted light enter the light receiving domains D3, D8, D1, D10. With respect to the diffraction direction of the hologram, the auxiliary light receiving domains D3—1, D3—2 (D8 1, D8—2) are provided on both sides of the light receiving domain D3 (D8). Since signals are computed as: D8-(D8—1+D8—2); and D3-(D3—1+D3—2) with the internal connection, DC offsets can be canceled in RES signals (D1+D3, D8+D10) used in the DPP method.
