An optical pickup apparatus which can be designed compact while having a plurality of semiconductor lasers. The optical pickup apparatus, which reads recorded information from an optical recording medium, comprises an optical system including light intensity detection element having a quarter-split light receiving surface, two semiconductor lasers for emitting light beams of different wavelengths, an objective lens for directing each of the light beams onto an optical recording medium to form a light spot on a recording surface, and a holographic optical element located between the quarter-split light receiving surface and the objective lens, whereby the holographic optical element eliminates coma aberration and spherical aberration of light beams launched from the two semiconductor lasers and traveled through the recording surface and the objective lens, thereby generating a predetermined amount of astigmatism. The holographic optical element further has a lens performance for converging light beams, launched from the two semiconductor lasers and traveled through the recording surface and the objective lens, onto the quarter-split light receiving surface.

The near-field light device is provided with: a light source; a quantum dot structure which is laminated on the light source; a plurality of quantity dots which are included in the quantity dot structure and each of which generates near-field light on the basis of light emitted from the light source; and an output end which is configured to output at least one portion of energy of the near-field light to the exterior of the quantity dot structure. The control unit of the recording apparatus controls the light source to emit the light upon recording the information, thereby increasing temperature of a region of the recording medium based on a size of the output end.

A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system obtains an MR image of an object. The system detects an ECG signal and performs a pulse sequence of RF gradient magnetic fields toward the object. Imaging defined by the pulse sequence is longer in temporal length than one heartbeat. The system further acquires an MR signal from the object in response to performance of the pulse sequence and produces the MR image based on the acquired MR signal. Also possible are: a plurality of divided MT pulses instead of the conventional single MT pulse, an SE-system pulse sequence having a shorter echo train spacing, and the generation of sounds by applying gradient pulses incorporated in an imaging pulse sequence so as to automatically instruct a patient to perform an intermittent breath hold.

A storage unit stores a parameter list that defines a method of creating scanning conditions for a preparation scan from scanning conditions set for a main scan, with respect to each type of scanning. A scanning-condition edit/scan positioning unit receives an operation of selecting a type of a preparation scan, and when the operation of selecting the type of the preparation scan is received, the scanning-parameter limit calculating unit acquires the parameter list corresponding to the type of the preparation scan, from among the parameter lists stored by the storage unit, creates scanning conditions for the preparation scan from scanning conditions set for a main scan based on the parameter list corresponding to the type of the preparation scan. The pulse-sequence execution-data creating unit then causes execution of the preparation scan based on the created scanning conditions.

A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes an RF coil unit which generates RF pulses toward a subject, and which receives an MR signal from the subject. Gradient magnetic field coils generate a gradient magnetic field for slice selection, a gradient magnetic field for phase encoding and a gradient magnetic field for frequency encoding, respectively. An arithmetic unit generates image data on the basis of the MR signal, and a sequence controller controls phase encoding gradient magnetic field coils in order to generate flow pulses for dephasing or rephasing the MR spin of blood flow within the subject, in the same direction as that of the phase encoding gradient magnetic field.
