摘要:
Laser beams respectively emitted from a SHG blue laser unit and a red semiconductor laser unit that have photo detectors respectively are turned into parallel lights by a collimator lens and then coupled by a dielectric multi-layer film mirror so as to be propagated on the same optical axis. The dielectric multi-layer film mirror is configured so as to transmit light with a wavelength of 500 nm or shorter and reflect light with a wavelength of 500 nm or longer for both P wave and S wave. The lights that are transmitted and reflected by the dielectric multi-layer film mirror pass through a polarizing hologram and a phase variable wave plate and are focused on an optical disk by an objective lens. In this manner, a simple configuration can realize a compatibility with many types of optical disks and a stable signal detection even when using a polarizing optical detection system.

摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide a coherent light source with limitations on the wavelength of emitted light being relaxed. The coherent light source of the present invention is a coherent light source for simultaneously emitting a first light (3) and a second light (4) having a wavelength shorter than that of the first light (3), including: a light source main body emitting at least the first light (3); a mirror (5) which transmits or reflects the first light (3); and a functional film (6) provided on at least a part of the mirror (5). The functional film (6) has a photocatalytic effect to be induced by the second light (4).

A light source device can attain a stable output of a harmonic even when there occurs a change in the ambient temperature or fluctuation in the output power. The light source device is provided with a semiconductor laser source (4), an optical waveguide-type QPM-SHG device (5) for generating a second harmonic from light emitted from the semiconductor laser source (4), a wavelength control means (7) for controlling a wavelength of light emitted from the semiconductor laser source (4), a means for slightly fluctuating wavelength (8) for changing a wavelength of light emitted from the semiconductor laser source (4) and a means for detecting a change in output light power of the optical waveguide-type QPM-SHG device (5) that occurs when a wavelength of light emitted from the semiconductor laser source (4) is changed. In this case, a wavelength of light emitted from the semiconductor laser source (4) is controlled to an optimum wavelength of the optical waveguide-type QPM-SHG device (5) based on a change in output light power of the optical waveguide-type QPM-SHG device (5) that occurs when a wavelength of light emitted from the semiconductor laser source (4) is changed.
摘要:
An optical information recording/reproducing device reproduces digital data recorded in a form of interference fringes produced by two coherent beams in a hologram disk, by projecting a coherent beam to the hologram disk and receiving a reproduction signal beam obtained by diffraction by means of a two-dimensional photodetector array. The holographic optical information recording/reproducing device includes a tunable coherent light source that emits the coherent beam, and a control section controls and optimizes a wavelength of the tunable coherent light source according to position information of the reproduction signal beam on the two-dimensional photodetector array. Thus, a holographic optical information recording/reproducing device is provided that is capable of maintaining a sufficient reproduction signal intensity and reproducing signals stably while undergoing a minimum of cross-talk, even in the case where the optimal reproduction wavelength varies due to a variance of media, a change of a temperature of a recording medium, etc.

摘要:
An optical pickup and an optical information recording/reproducing device are provided, each of which is capable of forming a super-resolution spot to conduct micro-mark recording, and does not undergo signal degradation due to an increased sidelobe in a reproducing operation. A variable phase filter having three regions to produce a phase difference in a radial direction is used, to provide a phase difference of π between the center region and the side regions in a recording operation, so that a super-resolution spot is formed on a recording layer of the optical disk. In a reproducing operation, a phase difference is nullified between the regions of the variable phase filter, so that a normal light spot at a diffraction limit having a smaller sidelobe is formed. The variable phase filter can be formed with a homogeneous-alignment liquid crystal element.
