An optical pickup device has a DVD/CD laser diode for emitting a DVD/CD laser beam as linear polarized light, and a BD laser diode for emitting a BD laser beam. The optical pickup device has a dichroic mirror that regularly reflects a part of the DVD/CD laser beam, transmits a part of the DVD/CD laser beam, and transmits return light of the BD laser beam. The dichroic mirror is formed so that a product of reflectance of outward light of the DVD/CD laser beam and transmittance of return light of the DVD/CD laser beam becomes 20% or more to 25% or less. A light receiving element receives the return light of the DVD/CD laser beam transmitted through the dichroic mirror or the return light of the BD laser beam transmitted through the dichroic mirror.

An optical pickup includes a wave plate on an optical path to be followed by every light beam emitted from three light sources (with wavelengths λ1, λ2 and λ3, respectively) both on their way toward an optical disc and back from the disc toward a photodetector. The wave plate has two layers with different retardations and different optic axis directions. The sum of the retardations of the first and second layers is defined to be approximately 5/4λ1, 3/4λ2 and 1/2λ3 to the light beams with the wavelengths λ1, λ2 and λ3.

An optical disk processing system having a recording unit and a printing unit is provided. An optical disk processing system comprises a printing unit and a recording unit. An optical disk is driven with a low torque and then with a high torque. Based on reaching times until target rotational speeds are reached when the optical disk is driven with the low torque and the high torque, a type of the optical disk is judged. Loading of a plurality of optical disks is detected when the judgment results for low torque and for high torque do not match.

摘要:
A device for preventing and controlling copying of data from an optical storage disc utilizing physical modifications in or on a storage capable optical disc. Also described is, a method for authenticating and controlling reading or copying of information or data in or on optical discs as, for example, wherein a locus on or in the optical storage disc is initially read to produce a signal and is then re-read by a reader to produce a second signal. The signal detected upon re-reading is different from the signal that is detected upon initial sampling.

There is provided a diffraction grating including a convex portion and a concave portion which are used for lights having different wavelengths λ1, λ2 and λ3 and are alternately disposed on at least one surface of a substrate with a predetermined pitch. An average refractive index of the convex portion is smaller than an average refractive index of the concave portion. A phase difference in the lights having the wavelength λ1 which transmit the convex portion and the concave portion and a phase difference in the lights having the wavelength λ2 which transmit the convex portion and the concave portion are both substantially the integral multiple of 2π, and a phase difference in the lights having the wavelength λ3 which transmit the convex portion and the concave portion is substantially the non-integral multiple of 2π.
