In an objective lens actuator of an optical disk drive and the like, variations in the fixed end positions of wires serving as suspensions are reduced and tilt characteristics are improved. Terminal plates 20 fixed to a lens holder are tilted relative to wires 13 for supporting the lens holder with elasticity, and are soldered at the edges of the terminal plates 20, so that variations in the fixed end positions of the wires 13 are reduced.

An objective lens (1) for an optical disk, which focuses a light beam from a light source, is designed so that a third-order coma aberration generated when the objective lens is inclined at a unit angle is larger than a third-order coma aberration generated when the optical disk (2) is inclined at the unit angle, mounted on an actuator for inclining the objective lens according to an inclination amount of the optical disk, and used. With this structure, it is possible to obtain an objective lens for an optical disk that has a large numerical aperture and is easy to manufacture and assemble, and in which the third-order coma aberration generated when the optical disk surface is inclined owing to a warp or the like can be corrected by small inclination of the objective lens, so as to reduce a residual astigmatism, which is generated according to the inclination amount, after the correction.

An optical scanning device for scanning a record carrier (22), the record carrier has an outer face (24) and the optical scanning device comprises a radiation source system (2) arranged to generate a radiation beam; an objective system (20) having an exit face (76) and which is arranged between the radiation source system and the record carrier and provides for evanescent coupling of the radiation across a gap between the exit face of the objective system and the outer face of the record carrier; and a radiation detector arrangement for detecting radiation after interaction with the record carrier. The radiation detector arrangement is arranged to produce a tilt error signals (α, β) representing a tilt misalignment between the exit face of the objective system and the outer face of the record carrier. The radiation detector arrangement is arranged to produce the tilt error signal by detecting information in the radiation which is indicative of a variation in efficiency off the evanescent coupling across the exit face.

The tracking coil is wound with wire, is disposed at a central portion on both sides of the lens holder, and includes a horizontal width at a top thereof that is less than a horizontal width at a bottom thereof. The focusing coil is wound with wire, is disposed at a left and a right on both sides of the lens holder, and includes a horizontal width at a top thereof that is greater than a horizontal width at a bottom thereof. The magnet faces the tracking coil and the focusing coil.

According to one embodiment, when a focus servo goes off and the distance between an objective lens and a recording layer of an optical disc does not coincide with a focal length of the objective lens, a control voltage or current corresponding to an optical disc wobble stored in a memory is superimposed on a control voltage or current supplied to a driving mechanism to move an objective lens along an optical axis for re-focusing, and the superimposed voltage or current is supplied to the driving mechanism. Therefore, pull-in of a focus servo for re-focusing is possible in a short time.

An optical pickup inspection device 3 sends to an actuator drive circuit 16 a command for changing defocus offset amount to set defocus offset amounts, and calculates jitter values for each of the defocus offset amounts based on a reproduction signal from a reproduction signal generation circuit 14. Then, the device 3 determines a quadric approximating curve of jitter values relative to the defocus offset amounts and calculates a correlation coefficient R2 of the quadric approximating curve and measured values. If the correlation coefficient R2 is lower than a threshold value, the setting of defocus offset amounts and the calculation of jitter values are executed once again, otherwise, a defocus offset amount corresponding to a bottom value of jitter in the quadric approximating curve is determined as an optimum value of the defocus offset amount. Thus, a less-error, high-accuracy optimum value of the defocus offset amount can be obtained.

When recording or reading an optical disc having plural data recording layers, which data recording layer the light spot is focused on is detected to improve playback signal quality and signals written to the layer on which the light spot is focused are read more reliably. A convergent lens converges the laser beam on the optical disc, and a focus controller controls the focal point of the laser beam on the data layer. A tracking controller positions and tracks the focal point of the laser beam converged by the convergent lens on a track of the optical disc. A photodetector detects the reflected laser beam from the disc. A convergence detector then detects the convergence state of the laser beam emitted to the plural data recording layers. Based on output from the convergence detector, the laser driver is controlled to separately set beam power appropriately for each of the plural data layers of the disc during playback.

An object of this invention is to achieve a hologram information recording and recovering device using an angle multiplexing method capable of reducing crosstalk from an adjacent hologram. When a set of incident angles of reference light on a disc in recording a hologram using the angle multiplexing method is expressed by {θ}=[θ1, θ2, . . . , θM], an incident angle {θ} of reference light is changed according to a position on an optical information recording medium or a track position.

In an optical head (10) used for an optical disc (30) in which light-transmitting layers largely change in thickness, a degree-of-diversion/convergence enlarging member (20) fixed between a collimating lens (4) and an objective lens (6) is arranged. With this configuration, a moving range of the collimating lens can be reduced, and the optical head can be miniaturized.
