摘要:
The invention presents an optical element with which an optical head can be configured, in which there is little deterioration of the correctional effect when the objective lens shifts, as well as an optical head and an optical recording/reproducing apparatus using such an optical element. The invention also presents a novel optical recording/reproducing apparatus and optical recording/reproducing method. The optical element, includes a first voltage application electrode 13, a first opposing electrode 17 arranged in opposition to the first voltage application electrode 13, and a first phase changing layer 15 arranged between the first voltage application electrode 13 and the first opposing electrode 17. By changing a voltage between the first voltage application electrode 13 and the first opposing electrode 17, a phase that converts plane waves into spherical waves is imparted on light that is incident on the first phase changing layer 15.

摘要:
An optical head for recording or reproducing a signal with respect to an optical recording medium, which includes an optical element disposed between a light source and an optical recording medium. The optical element has an optically active polymer film in which an optical rotation property changes with respect to an applied voltage, a pair of conductive transparent thin films for applying a voltage to the optically active polymer film, and a transmittance polarization anisotropic part having a different transmittance with respect to a polarization direction, which is disposed on one of the conductive transparent thin films. By changing the applied voltage to the optically active polymer film, a light quantity of a linearly polarized light transmitted through the optical element can be changed substantially instantaneously. Therefore, the power of light reaching the optical recording medium can be switched substantially instantaneously at the time when switched between recording and reproduction.
