摘要： An objective optical system focuses light from a light source onto at least two different types of optical recording media having different substrate thicknesses in order to record or reproduce information on the optical recording media by using a variable refractive power element and an objective lens. The variable refractive power element may be a liquid crystal element with concentric zones that serves as a transparent plate having no convergence effect when no voltage is applied when selecting an AOD, DVD, or CD and as a converging lens when a voltage is applied when selecting a BD. Alternately, the variable refractive power element may electrically vary the refractive index of a nanoparticle dispersion or at least one liquid of a two-liquid lens element. A diffractive optical element may be used to assist in focusing light to four recording media. An optical pickup device includes the objective optical system.

摘要： An objective optical system is formed of a diffractive optical element with a diffractive surface formed on a planar ‘virtual surface’ (i.e., a surface that would be planar but for the diffractive structure) and an objective lens for focusing three collimated light beams of three different wavelengths at three different numerical apertures onto desired positions of three different recording media with substrates of different thicknesses, such as an AOD, a DVD, and a CD, that introduce different amounts of spherical aberration in the focused beams. The objective optical system provides compensating spherical aberration to the three light beams while keeping equal the distance between the diffractive optical element and the objective lens, and focuses second-order diffracted light of one wavelength and first-order diffracted light of the other two wavelengths. An optical pickup device includes the objective optical system, the recording media, and a light source supplying the three light beams.

摘要： An objective lens is formed as an objective lens element with a diffractive surface on one side. The objective lens focuses a collimated light beam of a first wavelength diffracted by the objective lens onto a first recording medium, a collimated light beam of a second wavelength diffracted by the objective lens onto a second recording medium, and a diverging light beam of a third wavelength diffracted by the objective lens onto a third recording medium. The three light beams are focused at three different working distances from the objective lens and the diffraction orders of the diffracted light of two of the light beams is the same. The objective lens satisfies certain conditions related to the shortest of the three different working distances, the focal length of the objective lens element at the shortest of the three wavelengths, and the thickness of the objective lens.

摘要： An objective lens consists of two lens elements of different materials that are cemented. The lens surfaces that are cemented includes a phase function so that the cemented surface forms a optical diffractive surface that enables the objective lens to focus incident light of three different wavelengths with different numerical apertures onto different optical recording media. Three conditions are satisfied so as to achieve optimum imaging. The optical diffractive surface may be shaped so that the order of the diffracted light of the shortest wavelength λ1 having the largest diffracted intensity is different from the order of the diffracted light of the second wavelength λ2 having the largest diffracted intensity, and the order of the diffracted light of the first wavelength λ1 having the largest diffracted intensity is also different from the order of the diffracted light of the third wavelength λ3 having the largest diffracted intensity.
