摘要:
A reflective film is formed over a recording surface of an optical disk on which pits are formed. The reflective film is made of a non-linear optical material which, when light is incident thereon, generates second harmonics of the incident light. In a reproduction optical system for reproducing this optical disk, when a reading beam reflected by the reflective film of the optical disk impinges on a filter for filtering out the basic wave of the reading beam, the filter only transmits the second harmonics which are then incident on a light receiver. Since information signals recorded on an optical disk is reproduced by reading only second harmonics of the reflected beam, the cut-off spatial frequency of the OTF can be made twice higher as compared with a conventional reproducing apparatus. In other words, the recording density of the recording medium can be made higher.

Disclosed is an optical disk having rows of pits, corresponding to information signals, formed on a transparent substrate, and a reflective film formed on this substrate. The reflective film is formed of amorphous silicon (a-Si) or indium antimonide (InSb), which exhibits a third-order non-linear optical effect. Thus, the reflectance of the reflective film formed of this material increases nearly in proportion to the intensity of the irradiated beam spot. The beam spot irradiated on the optical disk has the highest intensity at the center portion and this intensity becomes weaker as a point in the spot approaches the edge. Therefore, the effective spot size of the beam spot can be reduced, making it possible to reproduce from the reflection type optical disk information signals with a spatial frequency above the cutoff spatial frequency defined by the reproducing optical system. In other words, a row of pits recorded at a high density can be reproduced. As a change in the reflectance of the reflective film does not alter the structure of the material, the reflective film has a fast response to the reflectance change and is hardly deteriorated by the repetitive change in reflectance.
摘要:
A reflected beam from a reflective film of an optical disk exhibiting light intensity dependency is efficiently received. In the optical system, a collimator lens, a polarization beam splitter, a quarter wave plate and an objective lens are disposed in turn in an optical path between a laser and an optical disk from the laser side. A light receiver is disposed on another optical path extending from the polarization beam splitter. A light receiving aperture diameter of the objective lens for passing the reflected beam from the optical disk therethrough is made larger than an incident aperture diameter of the objective lens for impinging the reading beam on the recording medium. This structure enables information signals to be recorded at higher density on the recording medium to be reproduced.
摘要:
An information detection light intensity control apparatus in an apparatus reproducing information recorded in an optical disc in which a reflectance has a dependency on an incident light intensity, comprising a light source for emitting an information detection light which enters the optical disc and a control system for controlling an intensity of the information detection light which enters the optical disc so that a ratio of an intensity of the information detection light which enters the optical disc and an intensity of the information detection light reflected from the optical disc is set to a predetermined value. According to the information detection light intensity control apparatus, a spot head value of the information detection light is held to the optimum value by coping with an aberration of a fluctuation such as disc tilt, disc thickness variation, or the like or with a sensitivity fluctuation of a super resolution film so that the information recorded in the super resolution optical disc can be stably reproduced.

An optical disc includes an information recording layer having a record of information as a pit train with a predetermined track pitch and a light-transmissive layer formed on the information recording layer so that the information can be reproduced by a beam of light illuminated through the light-transmissive layer to the information recording layer by an objective lens. The optical disc includes a feature in that a relationship of 0.194(λ/NA)2≦TP ×Tmin≦0.264(λ/NA)2 is satisfied, provided that the track pitch is TP, a pit shortest length is Tmin, a wavelength of the light beam is λ and a numerical aperture of the objective lens is NA. The optical disc also includes a feature in that a pit width is 120 nm or smaller in a range of a track pitch of 0.280 to 0.325 μm.
摘要:
In an information display apparatus such as a head-up display, while safety is being secured, visibility from a user is improved. Image data having an object such as an arrow showing an advancing direction or a road sign drawn on it are generated as information to be given to the user by a display information generating section 12 and is output to a projector 13. When a light beam R1 corresponding to the image data is emitted from the projector 13 to a combiner 14, reflected light of the light beam R1 and transmitted light of external light R2 are combined in the combiner 14, so as to be viewed by the user. At this time, the display information generating section 12 outputs coordinate values showing a display position of the object to a transmittance control section 16, and the transmittance control section 16 specifies a display region of the object based on the coordinate values, and reduces the transmittance in the specified region of the light control panel 15 so as to reduce a transmitting amount of the external light R2.
摘要:
There are obtainable reliable and proper tracking correction and CTC even when fluctuations occur in an irradiation position of a sub-beam in a track at the time of performing tracking correction and CTC using three beams. Five beams (a main beam, sub-beams inA and inB, and sub-beams outA and outB) are generated. Reflection beams of the five beams are received, and a differential push pull signal DPPin corresponding to the sub-beams “in” as ± first-order beams and a differential push pull signal DPPout corresponding to the sub-beams “out” as ± second-order beams are generated. By assigning weights to the differential push pull signals DPPin and DPPout and computing the sum of the weighted signals, a tracking error signal Ste having an amplitude value which can perform tracking correction is generated.

摘要:
An image display system includes a camera that shoots a background, a monitor that displays a shot background image, and an optical lens arranged between a display surface of the monitor and an observer. An imaginary image, obtained due to presence of the optical lens, of the monitor image is made to substantially match with a background surface. As a result, when the observer views the background through the monitor, the monitor image and the background look continuous to him.
