摘要:
An optical pickup device includes a plurality of laser light sources emitting laser beams of different oscillation wavelengths, and a plurality of objective lenses on which the laser beams in the form of diverging beams emitted by the plurality of laser light sources are incident, and which directly focus the laser beams onto a recording surface of an optical disc. A rising mirror reflects a laser beam in the form of a diverging beam emitted by a laser light source of a predetermined oscillation wavelength among the plurality of laser light sources so as to lead the laser beam to one of the plurality of objective lenses, and transmits the laser beam in the form of a diverging beam emitted by the other laser light source. As the rising mirror transmits the laser beam in the form of the diverging beam emitted by said other laser light source, astigmatism is generated so as to correct existing astigmatism of the laser beam emitted by said other laser light source.

In order to solve the above problem, in the optical multilayer disc according to the present invention, having information layers conforming to a plurality of different optical disc standards, in an area in one of the information layers, information about the other information layers is recorded. The time required to access the other information layers can be reduced by using this information to select a tracking error signal generating method.

A light wavefront measuring apparatus (2, 2a, 42) includes a separating element (7a, 47a) for separating a flux of light which exits from an optical head (1, 31) into a first beam and a second beam, a first interference fringe display section (21, 21a) for displaying interference fringes formed from the first beam, a Dove prism (13, 53) for rotating a wavefront of the second beam around its optical axis (AX2), and a second interference fringe display section (22, 22a) for displaying interference fringes formed from the second beam which passed through it. In adjustment of the light source device, position of a collimator (5) in the optical head (1, 31) is adjusted in optical axis direction so as to approximate the interference fringe patterns displayed in the interference fringe display sections (21, 22, 21a, 22a) each other.

A wide test region is ensured in an optical disk and the number of repeated recording instances is suppressed so that the optical disk is made insusceptible to damage and the test region can effectively be utilized. In an optical disk which includes a plurality of recording layers each having a power adjustment region for performing adjustment of power of a beam emitted while the data is recorded and in which the data can be rewritten in each recording layer, when, in performing the adjustment of power while the data is recorded, a region between a first power adjustment region that is a power adjustment region in a first recording layer and a second power adjustment region that is a power adjustment region in a second recording layer provided at a position that is more apart than that of the first recording layer from a plane from which the light beam enters becomes smaller, along a radial direction of the optical disk, than a predetermined size, a utilized region, in one of the first power adjustment region and the second power adjustment region, which is larger than that in the other is erased.

摘要:
In an optical pickup device, a flexible substrate (FPC) (2) and an auxiliary board (4) are fixed to an optical unit (5) with screws (11) before fixing an optical detector (1) to the FPC (2). After that, the optical detector (1) is pressed to the FPC (2) by probes (12), to bring lead portions (1a) into contact with conductor portions (2a). The optical detector 1 is singly moved by the probes (12) in that state, to perform position adjustment of the optical detector (1). Since the friction between the optical detector (1) alone and the FPC (2) is small, the position adjustment can be performed with high accuracy. Further, since the lead portions (1a) and the conductor portions (2a) are in contact with each other, it is possible to perform the position adjustment while observing an electrical signal outputted from the optical detector (1) through the FPC (2). Then, after determining the optimal position of the optical detector (1), the lead portions (1a) and the conductor portions (2a) are fixed to each other by soldering. Through such a manufacturing method, it is possible to improve the accuracy of position adjustment of the optical detector relative to the optical unit and improve the reliability of position of the optical detector after the position adjustment.
