摘要:
A method and a device for simultaneously reading information from a plurality of data tracks (14) of an optical disc (22) by means of a detector illuminating said plurality of data tracks with laser spots (25), wherein light reflected from the laser spots is collected by means of a servo lens (29), further providing the detector with a plurality of detector elements (28a, 28b, 28c, 31a, 42a, 28bc, 28cc, 32a, 32b, 42ac, 51a, 52a, 52b) spaced apart from each other, arranging each detector element to detect (read) light reflected from a data track allotted to each element, arranging at most two detector elements (28bc, 28cc, 32a, 32b, 42ac, 52a, 52b) to be segmented detectors for providing both a power signal for the allotted track and an output signal for focus error control in a servo system guiding said detector along said tracks, reading only the power signal for each track by means of second detector elements (28a, 28b, 28c, 31a, 42a, 51a) and arranging each one of said second detector elements to be of substantially smaller area than the area of one of said first detector elements.
摘要:
In an optical scanning device (10) capable of scanning an information plane of an optical record carrier (5) of different types such as BD, DVD and CD, the diameter of the radiation spot on the detector (7) is dependent on the numerical aperture of the objective system (4) that is used for scanning the record carrier An optimal design of the optical detection system for scanning a BD, result in a small radiation spot for the other types such as DVD and CD. By implementing an optical element (13) that increases the diameter of the radiation spot in the situation a DVD or CD is scanned, the influence of stray light is reduced and the tracking signals are improved
