摘要:
When the DVD provided with the DVD substrate 2 having thickness t2 of 0.6 mm is installed in the optical disc apparatus, the light beam 4 having wavelength λ1=655 nm is used as luminous flux of numerical aperture NA=0.63 to be condensed on the information surface 2a on the DVD substrate 2. When the CD provided with the CD substrate 3 having thickness t2 of 1.2 mm is installed in the optical disc apparatus, the light beam 5 having wavelength λ2=790 nm is effectively used as luminous flux of approximate numerical aperture NA=0.45 to be condensed on the information surface 3a on the DVD substrate 3. The wavefront aberration caused by a thickness difference between the DVD substrate 2 and CD substrate 3 is canceled out by the chromatic aberration caused by a wavelength difference between the light beams 4 and 5. Therefore, in spite of the difference in the transparent substrates, the light beams are suitably condensed respectively on the information surface 2a and 3a.

The multi-wavelength lens for condensing a plurality of kinds of monochromatic light by refraction is disclosed. The lens comprises a common use area for all monochromatic light on at least one lens surface, the area sectioned into a plurality of aspherical zones each of which having a different refractive power; and step portions, each of which formed between adjacent aspherical zones of the plurality of aspherical zones and having a step height Dj (j=1,2,3,4, and so on, in order of closeness to a lens optical axis) in a direction parallel to the lens optical axis. At least half of the step portions satisfy a following formula when a minimum value and a maximum value of Aij for each wavelength λi are MIN(Aij) and MAX(Aij), respectively: MAX(Aij)/MIN(Aij)

The present invention aims at focusing a light beam on each of a plurality of kinds of optical recording media having different thicknesses of transparent substrates with a suitable wave-optic optical spot shape. In an objective lens optical system according to the present invention, at least one surface of an aberration correction plate is sectioned into five or more zones, including a first zone closest to an optical axis serving as a common zone, and four or more zones as a second and subsequent zones respectively having a lens surface shape corresponding to the thickness of each transparent substrate.

摘要:
The present invention comprises an arrangement with removable optical element having a predetermined focal distance in the light path between a light source and an objective lens, so as to insert said optical element into the light path between the light source and the objective lens for playing back or recording onto one type of thickness of disk plates, as well as to remove it therefrom for playing back or recording onto another type of thickness of disk plates. Alternatively, by retaining variably the distance between the light source and the collimator lens, the distance between the light source and the collimator lens along with the light path is variably changed according to the thickness of the disk plate being inserted. Then by determining the type of the disk inserted and accordingly selectably inserting/removing the optical element, only one objective lens may be used to conform to the disk plates having different thicknesses.
