摘要:
An optical head comprises a photodetector 8 having divided photosensitive areas to detect light 13 reflected from an optical disk 7, means 10, 11, 12 for obtaining track error signal by operating signals from the photosensitive areas. The photodetector 8 has a first division line 9a parallel to an information track on the optical disk and second and third division lines 9b, 9c perpendicular to the first division line 9f and symmetrical to the optical axis. Further, a light-shielding area 8i is provided for shielding a part of the reflected light between the division lines 9b and 9c. The signals are operated to reduce offset of the tracking error signal due to a shift of object lens and a tilt of the optical disk. Accordingly, the optical head of the present invention has a small offset of tracking error signal with a simple structure.

A magneto-optical pick-up for recording and reproducing information to an information recording medium comprises an optical module comprising an integral light emitting element and receptor element having plural light reception areas, and a diffraction grating on the light incident/emission plane, an objective lens, a polarizing prism provided integrally to the optical module in the light path between the light-emitting element and an objective lens and having the reflectivity and transmittance differing for P-polarized and S-polarized lights, and a polarizing element provided internally or integrally to the optical module which divides the light reflected by or passed through the polarizing prism into light having at least two mutually-perpendicular polarization components to guide the divided lights to the receptor element.

An optical head that detects a tilt in an optical disk. The optical head includes a condensing means, a light receiving means, a tracking error signal detection means, and an optical tilt detecting means. The light receiving means includes at least first and second light receiving areas, the first light receiving area being a rectangle having long sides that extend in a direction perpendicular to information tracks on the optical disk. The tracking error signal detection means detect error signals corresponding to light signals received in the first and second light receiving areas. The optical disk tilt detection means compare the tracking error signals to detect a radial tilt in the optical disk. In an alternative embodiment, the long sides of first light receiving area extend in a direction parallel to the information tracks, and the optical disk tilt detecting means detect a tangential tilt in the optical disk.

An optical head is composed of an objective 2, a composite diffraction element 3 having six areas divided by three parting lines 3a to 3c; and a substrate 5 on which a light-emitting element and a plurality of light-receiving elements are arranged. A focus and a tracking error signals are generated based on signals from the light-receiving elements that receive those of a plurality of luminous fluxes divided by the composite diffraction element 3 which result from passage through the portion between the parting lines 3b and 3c. In generating the tracking error signal, signals from the light-receiving elements that receive luminous fluxes resulting from passage through the outside of the parting lines 3b and 3c are used to correct an offset in the tracking error signal caused by the movement of the objective.

When information about weight of a sheet indicates weight less than a predetermined weight, a sheet stacking apparatus configured to align sheets to be stacked on a stacking tray discharges the sheet onto the stacking tray while overlapping the sheet with another sheet by an overlapping unit, and, when the information about the weight of the sheet indicates weight not less than the predetermined weight, the sheet stacking apparatus discharges the sheet onto the stacking tray without overlapping the sheet with another sheet by the overlapping unit.

An optical pickup device includes a first laser element that emits first laser light, a second laser element that emits second laser light of which the wavelength is longer than that of the first laser light, an optical path composition element that composes the first laser light and the second laser light to one optical path, a wavelength selective element that acts on the composed first or second laser light; and an objective lens that condenses the first laser light and the second laser light on an optical disk. The magnitude of the power of the wavelength selective element as a lens with respect to the second laser light is larger than the magnitude of the power of the wavelength selective element as a lens with respect to the first laser light. Accordingly, it may be possible to reduce the optical pickup device and the optical disk apparatus in size.

The invention provides a tracking control device, a tracking control method, and an optical disc apparatus that enable to stably perform the tracking control, and reduce an influence of stray light from the other layer on the tracking control. A sub push-pull signal correcting section corrects a sub push-pull signal to be generated from returning light of a sub beam in such a manner that a track crossing component of a main push-pull signal to be generated from returning light of a main beam, and a track crossing component of the sub push-pull signal to be generated from the returning light of the sub beam are canceled. A low pass filter reduces a high frequency component of the sub push-pull signal corrected by the sub push-pull signal correcting section. A subtractor subtracts a sub push-pull signal passing the low pass filter from the main push-pull signal to thereby generate a tracking error signal.

An optical head includes a plurality of light receiving areas, which receive a first type of reflected rays where zero-order and first-order components of the light diffracted by a track are superposed one upon the other to generate a light quantity signal representing the quantity of light of the first type of reflected rays, and a non-light-receiving area, which is provided between the light receiving areas so as not to receive a second type of reflected ray consisting essentially of the zero-order components. As measured in a first direction in which the light receiving areas are arranged, a gap between the light receiving areas is longer than the width of the non-light-receiving area. The optical head further includes a tracking error signal generating section for generating a tracking error signal based on the light quantity signal.

An optical information apparatus of the present invention includes: an optical pick-up head including: a light source; a diffraction unit; a condensing unit; a beam splitter; a photodetector; and a tracking error signal generator. An optical recording medium has tracks arranged substantially at a constant pitch. An average of a pitch is tp. When a main beam is placed on the track, a first sub-beam and a second sub-beam are placed between the tracks. The tracking error signal generator performs a differential arithmetic operation with respect to signals output from a light-receiving portion receiving the main beam to generate a first push-pull signal, performs a differential arithmetic operation with respect to signals output from the light-receiving portions receiving the first sub-beam and the second sub-beam to generate a second push-pull signal, and performs a differential arithmetic operation with respect to the first push-pull signal and the second push-pull signal to generate a tracking error signal, in a case where an amplitude of the first push-pull signal obtained at the pitch tp is fluctuated when the light beam is scanned in a direction orthogonal to the tracks of the optical recording medium.
