    摘要: An apparatus for converting optical information into an electrical information signal includes a plurality of one-dimensional conversion arrays arranged in parallel form. Each one-dimensional conversion array has first and second photoelectric conversion structures integrally formed. The first photoelectric conversion structure has photoelectric conversion elements each having a light receiving surface onto which an information light is projected. The second photoelectric conversion structure has photoelectric conversion elements each having a sweep light receiving surface onto which a sweep light is projected. The sweep light has a cross section which simultaneously scans the sweep light receiving surface of one of the photoelectric conversion elements included in each of the one-dimensional conversion arrays. The electrical information signal is read out from the photoelectric conversion elements provided in the first photoelectric conversion structure when the sweep light is projected onto the photoelectric conversion elements provided in the second photoelectric conversion structure.

    摘要: In a laser printer or the like, for the purpose of increasing a recording speed, the number of revolutions of a laser beam deflector is not increased but a plurality of scanning lines are simultaneously scanned. To this end, a plurality of laser beams with an angle of incidence slightly varied are simultaneously incident upon one and the same laser beam deflector. In the event that places for installation of a plurality of light sources are hindered each other by other light sources, light sources different in polarization surface from each other are used, and when beams are combined by means of a polarization beam combiner, a combined beam which is different in angle of emergence through a fine angle each other can be obtained without loss of light.

    摘要: A velocity detecting device includes an image-pattern acquiring unit that includes a laser light source and an area sensor that acquires a one-dimensional or a two-dimensional image. The image-pattern acquiring unit includes a lens between a moving member and the area sensor, irradiates a beam emitted from the laser light source to the moving member to make a scattering light of the moving member scattered from the moving member on the area sensor by using the lens, and acquires an image pattern at a predetermined time interval in association with movement of the moving member. A velocity calculating unit calculates the velocity of the moving member by computing the image pattern acquired by the image-pattern acquiring unit. The lens is a reduced optical system that projects a reduced object onto the area sensor.

    摘要: An optical scanning apparatus for scanning a beam of light from a light source over a target surface by a scanning mechanism to form an image on the target surface. The optical scanning apparatus includes an electro-optic lens provided in an optical path between the light source and the scanning mechanism, a plurality of electrodes being provided on top and bottom surfaces of the electro-optic lens for producing an electric field in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the optical path, and a voltage applying unit being connected to the electrodes. The electro-optic lens is made from an electro-optic medium, and has an ingress surface and and egress surface which are ground to exhibit an adequate electro-optic effect. The beam is cast on the target surface to produce a dot having an enlarged diameter in the vertical scanning direction and in the horizontal scanning direction due to the electro-optic effect of the electro-optic medium when the electric field is produced within the electro-optic lens.
