摘要:
The present invention relates to an optical pick-up head apparatus capable of recording, reproducing, or erasing optical information, and provides an optical pick-up head apparatus which can detect signals in a stable and good condition. A Faraday rotator 20 is disposed on an optical path between a polarized beamsplitter 55 and a polarized beamsplitter 53 so as to rotate polarization directions of a beam 6 emitted from a semiconductor laser source 2 and a beam 6 reflected back at a magneto-optical recording medium 4. A beam passing through the polarized beamsplitter 53 is received by a photodetector unit 83 to detect information signals and a reflected beam from the polarized beamsplitter 53 is received by a photodetector unit 84 to detect focusing- and tracking-error signals. Accordingly, it becomes possible that light quantity supplied to the photodetector unit 83 is adjusted to the optimum amount capable of adequately detecting the information signal and further all the remaining light quantity is supplied to the photodetector unit 84. Therefore, there is no uselessness in the detection of light. That is, both the focusing (or tracking)-error signal and the information signal can be respectively detected with high intensity and excellent S/N ratio. Consequently, it becomes possible to provide an optical pick-up head apparatus assuring very high reliability.

The invention presents an optical element with which an optical head can be configured, in which there is little deterioration of the correctional effect when the objective lens shifts, as well as an optical head and an optical recording/reproducing apparatus using such an optical element. The invention also presents a novel optical recording/reproducing apparatus and optical recording/reproducing method. The optical element, includes a first voltage application electrode 13, a first opposing electrode 17 arranged in opposition to the first voltage application electrode 13, and a first phase changing layer 15 arranged between the first voltage application electrode 13 and the first opposing electrode 17. By changing a voltage between the first voltage application electrode 13 and the first opposing electrode 17, a phase that converts plane waves into spherical waves is imparted on light that is incident on the first phase changing layer 15.
