    摘要: A focus controller for focusing a light beam and positioning the focused light beam onto a signal recording layer of a signal recording media is disclosed. The controller comprises a light beam focusing means having a numerical aperture of 0.6 or more; a focus controlling means for positioning the light beam focused by the light beam focusing means onto the signal recording layer of the recording media; and an offset adjusting means for adjusting an offset between the focused light beam positioned by the focus controlling means and the signal recording layer of the recording media. The controller positions the light beam focused by an objective lens onto the signal recording layer of a recording media; moves the objective lens within a predetermined optical-axial range, detects an amplitude of a signal read from the recording media at either end of the optical-axial range, and adjusts an offset between the focused light beam positioned by the objective lens and the signal recording layer, depending on a difference between the amplitudes of the detected reproduced signal.

    摘要: An optical recording medium recording and reproducing apparatus for recording information on an optical recording medium and/or reproducing information therefrom by irradiating the optical recording medium with laser light by the use of a two-group objective lens composed of at least first and second lenses. This apparatus is provided with: a light source for emitting laser light; a first lens for converging laser light emitted from the light source; a second lens interposed between the first lens and the optical recording medium; a detecting unit for detecting a kind of the recording medium; and a movement unit for changing the distance in the direction of an optical axis between the first and second lenses by causing a relative movement between the first and second lenses. Further, the distance between the first and second lenses is changed by the movement unit, which causes the second lens to move, according to a result of a detection, which is performed by the detecting unit. Thereby, the numerical aperture NA of the objective lens is increased. Moreover, the influence of aberration is mitigated. Consequently, the high-density recording and reproducing of information signals can be achieved.

    摘要: There is provided an optical pick-up device capable of eliminating a spherical aberration due to a thickness error of an optical disc. The optical pick-up device includes a convex lens having a flat surface opposed to a surface of an optical recording medium, and having a predetermined refractive index, and an objective lens disposed such that the convex lens is interposed between said optical recording medium and the objective lens. A position-detecting means detects a position relation between the light-incident surface of the optical recording medium and the flat surface of the convex lens, based on first and second detection signals. A drive means drives the convex lens along an optical axis thereof such that the convex lens is caused to move in the opposite directions toward the optical recording medium or the objective lens, whereby a distance between the light-incident surface of the optical recording medium and the flat surface of the convex lens is controlled based on the first and second detection signals.

    摘要: An image pickup apparatus capable of improving the image quality of a picked-up image at the time of closely picking up an image is provided. In an image processing section 14, after a process of clipping a central region 31 and an image reversing process are performed in each of image pickup regions 3 of microlenses on image pickup data D1 obtained by an image pickup device 13, an image synthesizing process using images is performed to obtain image-processed data (image pickup data D2). In the image pickup data D2, the process of clipping the central region 31 is performed in each of the image pickup regions 3 of the microlenses, so even if a living organism 2 as an object subjected to image pickup is closely placed, an overlap region 32 between the image pickup regions 3 by adjacent microlenses is removed. In addition, the range of the central region 31 may have a fixed value which is set in advance, or may be changed depending on a distance between the object subjected to image pickup (living organism) 2 and a microlens array 12.

A biometrics authentication system 1 includes a light source 10, a light guide section 11A, a diffraction section 11B, a microlens array 12, an image pickup device 13, an image processing section 14, a pattern storing section 15, an authentication section 16, a voltage supply section 17, a light source driving section 181, an image pickup device driving section 182 and a control section 19. When light L0 emitted from the light source 10 propagates through the light guide section 11A by total reflection, and then enters the diffraction section 11B, light L1 diffracted at a different angle from an incident angle is generated. Thereby, the light guide section 11A functions as a surface-emitting light source, and total reflection conditions in the light guide section 11A are not satisfied, and the light L1 is guided to the outside of the light guide section 11A, thereby light is sufficiently applied to the inside of the living body 2.
