The front photo detector includes a photo diode unit, a current-voltage amplifying circuit, and a voltage amplifying unit. The photo diode unit outputs current proportional to the power of the light emitted from one of a plurality of laser diodes. The current-voltage amplifying circuit converts the current output from the photo diode unit into a voltage. The voltage amplifying circuit amplifies the voltage output from the current-voltage amplifying circuit by a predetermined gain.

    摘要: A semiconductor laser for generating a laser beam and an optical pickup for recording/reproducing information using the semiconductor laser as an optical source are provided. The semiconductor laser includes an aperture member on an emitting end thereof to perform high-density memory recording/reproducing through the reduction of an optical spot. The aperture has a hole whose diameter is smaller than the width of the active region of the semiconductor laser, to thereby restrictively emit the laser beam via the hole so that the optical spot formed on an optical disk is reduced. Thus, high-density memory recording/reproducing, which is useful for miniaturized information processors, can be realized.

The collimating lens is arranged between an edge emitting laser diode having an active layer and a beam splitter, and corrects the astigmatic difference of the light emitted from the edge emitting laser diode. Therefore, a compact optical pickup can be achieved since additional optical elements for correcting the astigmatic difference of the laser beam are not required.

    摘要: In a method and an apparatus for correcting aberration due to optical disk tilt, the apparatus includes a correction plate through which a first light beam passes by an object lens in an optical disk, a light source and a photo detector for generating and receiving a second light beam to detect the magnitude of the optical disk tilt, respectively, and an actuator for inclining the correction plate based on the detected signal. The correction plate has the same optical properties as those of the substrate of the optical disk, irrespective of the optical pick surroundings and offset the aberration due to the optical disk tilt. Therefore, while the best performance of the optical pickup is ensured, adverse effects caused by the aberration due to the optical disk tilt can be eliminated through simple circuitry.
