Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To produce a mold for forming a lens having two different curved surfaces with high precision at a low cost. SOLUTION: The mold for forming a lens having different curved surfaces 5, 3, in which the outer peripheral part and the inside part are continued through inflection points 4, is produced by moving a tool while rotating molding material and by cutting or grinding the same. In the production method, after the curved surface of the outer peripheral part is cut or ground up to the inflection points 4, the above-mentioned tool is retracted from the predetermined cutting or grinding face of the curved surface of the inside part. After the tool is made to again pass the inflection points 4, the curved surface of the inside part is cut or ground.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain optical parts having excellent optical characteristics and excellent mechanical characteristics by devising the position of a gate at the time of molding of the optical parts which are integrally molded by resin molding and have an optically effective portion and a part to be supported. SOLUTION: The optical parts 1 are integrally molded with an objective lens 2 (optically effective portion) and a holder 3 (part to be supported) of the objective lens 2 by a transparent resin material. The shape over the entire part thereof has an axisymmetrical shape and the gate 11 at the time of molding is disposed on a symmetrical axis S and the injection direction of the resin is set to a symmetrical axis direction. As a result, the uniformity of the flow of the resin in the cavity of molds, the packability of the resin into the cavity, the transmittability of pressure retaining force, the residual strain in products, etc., may be maintained. The optical parts having the good optical characteristics of the optically effective portion and the good mechanical characteristics of the part to be supported may be obtained.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To preclude luminous flux of the outside of an optical effective surface, without impairing an optical performance by allowing a projection shaped spherical surface whose surface is rotationally symmetric to be a curved surface having no difference in level as to its radial direction and to have places, where differential coefficients are discontinuous at prescribed radial positions. SOLUTION: An objective lens 24 converges a light beam from a beam splitter on a desired tack on the signal recording surface of an optical disk, which is rotationally driven. Here, the lens 24 is movably supported in biaxial directions, that is, in the focus direction and the tracking direction. Relating to the objective lens 24, the surface 24a of a light source side is a projection shaped spherical surface, whose surface is rotationally symmetric and the surface is given by a function concerning distances (radii) from its optical axis. In this function, differential coefficients are continuous in a domain and coefficients become discontinuous at prescribed positions y0 in the radial direction. Moreover, since these positions y0 are in the domain and rays of light passing here become marginal rays, these positions are determined, so that the numerical aperture of the lens becomes a prescribed value (necessary numerical aperture).

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make the recording and reproducing of an information signal satisfactory with respect to plural kinds of optical recording mediums whose thicknesses of transparent substrates are different by changing the numerical aperture of an objective lens as to the luminous flux of one wavelength and the luminous flux of other wavelength with a wavelength selective film. SOLUTION: The aperture for the luminous flux B1 of a first wavelength is the whole surface of a surface part and the luminous flux B1 is converged on the signal recording surface of a first optical disk 101a. The aperture for the luminous flux B2 of a second wavelength is an area where an antireflection film 2 is formed and where is in the surface part and the luminous flux B2 is converged on the signal recording surface of a second optical disk 101b. Since the numerical aperture is changed according to the difference of wavelengths by changing wavelengths of incident luminous fluxes in an objective lens 1, an optimum condition for recording and reproducing the information signal is realized with respect to the plural kinds of optical recording mediums whose thicknesses of transparent substrates are different.
