摘要:
An optical head has a semiconductor laser for emitting light, a collimator lens for converting the light from the laser into a parallel light beam, a semiconductor substrate for reflecting the light beam, and an objective lens for focussing the light beam reflected from the substrate on the optical disk. A 1/4 wavelength plate is situated between the substrate and the objective lens. A beam splitter which transmits the light from the laser and reflects the light returning from the disk is provided between the collimator lens and the substrate. Following the beam splitter, a collective lens, a cylindrical lens and an optical detector are arranged in this order on an optical path for the returning light. A light receiving element for outputting a signal corresponding to the intensity of the light received is formed on the semiconductor substrate, and a polarizing film is formed on the surface thereof.

In a process for the production of an electrode for cell, a three-dimensional porous metal substrate is filled with an active material filler containing an active material. Then, heat and ultrasonic vibration is applied in order to denature or deform the active material filler to the substrate at a predetermined point where a collector leading portion is formed to remove the active material filler.

An optical recording and reproducing apparatus includes a first semiconductor laser for emitting a recording laser beam whose intensity is modulated in accordance with an information signal to be recorded and a second semiconductor laser for emitting a reproducing laser beam having a constant intensity. The recording and reproducing semiconductor lasers are commonly mounted in a supporting member which is mounted on a pick-up plate arranged movably in a radial direction of a rotating optical disc. The recording and reproducing laser beams are composed with each other by means of a substantially parallelogram shaped prism having a reflection surface for reflecting the reproducing laser beam and an optical surface upon which the reproducing laser beam is made incident at an incident angle larger than a critical angle and the recording laser beam is made incident at an incident angle near Brewster's angle. The composed recording and reproducing laser beams are commonly focussed by a single objective lens onto the optical disc in such a manner that the recording laser beam is made incident upon an information track to be formed and the reproducing laser beam is made incident upon a guide track or a previously recorded information track.

A light source degradation detecting apparatus for a laser device monitors drive currents and output laser beams. The degradation detecting apparatus includes drivers for supplying three drive signals to the laser, a photodiode for detecting laser outputs produced in response to the drive signals, a memory for storing measured values and the drive signals, and a discriminator for calculating ratio P from storage data (laser outputs W.sub.n, W.sub.n+1, and W.sub.n+2 produced in response to drive currents I.sub.n, I.sub.n+1, and I.sub.n+2) as follows:P={(W.sub.n+2 -W.sub.n)/(I.sub.n+2 -I.sub.n)}/{(W.sub.n+1 -W.sub.n)/(I.sub.n+1 -I.sub.n)}and for discriminating that the laser has reached an end of its life when the ratio P falls outside a predetermined range.
