PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a satisfactory reproduced signal by reducing a spherical aberration to be caused by the error of the thickness of a substrate in the pickup having a two group lens. SOLUTION: A standing wave is generated by supplying a voltage corresponding to the thickness (the error) of the substrate of a disk 2 to the electrodes of the stator 51 constituted of (lead zirconate titanate) and which is fixed to an objective lens 36 via a base 59. The rotator 52 provided on a stator 51 performs revolution on a horizontal plane arround an optical axis by the standing wave. Consequently, since the feed screw 54 fixed to the rotator 52 becomes to rotate the feed screw 54 fixed to a solid emersion lens 37, the solid emersion lens 37 is moved in an optical axial direction with respect to the objective 36. Thus, the spherical aberration to be generated is reduced by changing the distance between the objective lens 36 and the solid emersion lens 37 according to the thickness (the error) of the substrate in such a manner.

Abstract:
PURPOSE:To quickly separate magnets from each other with a small torque by supporting one of a pair of initializing magnets, which can be moved in such directions that they can approach and go away from a magneto-optical disk, by an elastic member which has an elastic force in such direction that magnets are separated from each other. CONSTITUTION:One magnet 12 of a pair of initializing magnets 8 and 12 can be moved in such directions that it can approach and go away from a magneto- optical disk 101, and this magnet 12 is supported by the elastic member which has an elastic force in such direction that initializing magnets are separated from each other. When the disk 101 is set, the magnetic force between initializing magnets causes initilizing magnets to approach each other against the elastic force of the elastic member. When the disk 101 is taken out, the elastic force of the elastic member separates initializing magnets from each other against the magnetic force between them. Consequently, the process to move the initializing magnets is shortened at the time of taking out the disk 101. Thus, initializing magnets are quickly separated from each other with a small torque.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for seamlessly connecting phases of holograms, in initialization processing of a negative type optical recording medium.SOLUTION: A mirror is arranged on a lower surface side of an optical recording medium having a hologram recording material layer. In this state, an upper surface side of the optical recording medium is irradiated with a laser beam having uniform light intensity and phase. The laser beam is interfered with a reflected laser beam obtained by reflecting the laser beam at the mirror, so that a hologram is formed on the hologram recording material layer. Even if the laser beam is not vertically incident on the hologram recording material layer, phases of holograms can be seamlessly connected at initialization processing.

When the third-order spherical aberration SA3(C) of the cover part of the optical recording medium is completely corrected with the third-order spherical aberration SA3(L) which occurs due to the magnification aberration of the objective lens, the objective lens 3 is formed so that a conditional expression -0.035 COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
