    摘要: In a lens array, a multiplicity of condenser lenses, each in a convex lens form, are arrayed in vertical and horizontal directions so as to correspond to pixel regions, respectively, and each condenser lens, when viewed from a direction perpendicular to a condenser lens-arrayed plane, takes a planar shape formed with a four straight sides along four sides of the pixel region and four circular arcs extending between the respective straight sides. A center of the four circular arcs substantially coincides with a center of the corresponding pixel region. This ensures an increase in area covered with the condenser lens in the pixel region, thereby causing more light rays to enter the condenser lens. In addition, a radius of curvature necessary for collecting can be obtained more easily. Consequently, light rays can be efficiently collected and guided to light receiving sections or the like provided in the pixel regions. Accordingly, sensitivity is improved when such a lens array is used in a solid-state imaging element, while luminance of a screen is improved when it is used in a panel display element. Besides, such a lens array is easily manufactured.

    摘要: An objective lens (1) for an optical disk, which focuses a light beam from a light source, is designed so that a third-order coma aberration generated when the objective lens is inclined at a unit angle is larger than a third-order coma aberration generated when the optical disk (2) is inclined at the unit angle, mounted on an actuator for inclining the objective lens according to an inclination amount of the optical disk, and used. With this structure, it is possible to obtain an objective lens for an optical disk that has a large numerical aperture and is easy to manufacture and assemble, and in which the third-order coma aberration generated when the optical disk surface is inclined owing to a warp or the like can be corrected by small inclination of the objective lens, so as to reduce a residual astigmatism, which is generated according to the inclination amount, after the correction.

    摘要: A coupling lens (104) of the present invention is used for coupling a beam of light emitted from a semiconductor laser (101) to an optical fiber (108). The coupling lens (104) is formed of a single lens, and a diffraction lens formed of concentric zones is integrated on an incident surface or an exit surface of the single lens. The diffraction lens has a positive refracting power, a relief function of the diffraction lens has an approximately isosceles triangular shape, and a depth W of the relief function satisfies the following formula: 0.6≦W(n−1)/&lgr;≦1.0 where n denotes a refractive index of a material of the lens and &lgr; represents a wavelength of the semiconductor laser. When the coupling lens is used as a coupling lens for a semiconductor laser module, the intensity of light emitted from the module is allowed to comply with a safety standard without using an attenuation film or a polarizer, or a control circuit for stopping emission of the laser automatically when the optical fiber comes off.

    摘要: An optical system for an optical disk, comprising a light source (61), a collimating optical system (63) for converting a luminous flux from the light source into parallel rays of light, and an object lens (66) for condensing the parallel rays onto the information recording surface (71) of an optical disk. The object lens consisting of two or three lenses and having a numerical aperture (NA) of at least 0.82 enables a high-density recording. Since a third-order astigmatism produced when the object lens is tilted 0.7 degree with respect to an optical axis is as small as up to 10 m lambda, a residual aberration, after a third-order comatic aberration produced when the optical disk is tilted due to warping or the like is corrected by tilting the optical lens, can be reduced. Therefore, a tilted optical disk still can ensure a satisfactory recording and/or reproducing quality.
