摘要： An optical head device includes a light source for emitting a light beam having a predetermined wavelength, an optical system for converging the light beam emitted from the light source on an information medium, and a light detector for receiving the light beam reflected from the information medium and detecting a focus error signal based on the received light beam. The light detector includes a plurality of pairs of photodetectors. The light detector generates the focus error signal based on a differential signal generated by each pair of the plurality of pairs of photodetectors. The plurality of pairs of photodetectors are arranged so that a fluctuation in the differential signal generated by at least one of the pairs of the plurality of pairs of photodetectors is cancelled by a fluctuation in the differential signal generated by at least another of the pairs of the plurality of pairs of photodetectors.

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.
