いわゆる非点収差法が主流になっている。2. Description of the Related Art In an optical head that optically reads or writes a signal on a signal recording medium such as a disk by using a light beam, the light beam is focused on a signal surface of the signal recording medium. In order to perform focus control, astigmatism is given to the light beam reflected by the signal recording medium, and the light beam is divided by a cross-shaped dividing line whose direction is set according to the direction in which astigmatism occurs. Light is received by the divided light receiving areas, and the light receiving level of each light receiving output of each divided light receiving area is added to each light receiving area of each light receiving area arranged on a diagonal line. Signal, and performs focus control by displacing the objective lens in the focus direction according to the focus error signal level.
The so-called astigmatism method has become mainstream.

形となるように設定される。[0003] Incidentally, an astigmatism pattern affected by astigmatism appears in a light receiving spot formed by receiving a light beam having astigmatism on a photodetector. The direction of the major axis of the ellipse differs by 90 degrees depending on whether the focal point of the light beam is forward or rearward with respect to the plane, and is set so as to be substantially a perfect circle at the focal point where the focal point of the light beam coincides with the signal plane.

特性となり、この場合、電圧レベルが「0」の点が光ビ
ームの焦点と信号面との合焦点に設定される。As is well known, the voltage level of the focus error signal increases and decreases depending on the distance between the focal point of the light beam and the signal surface, and the polarity of the signal is reversed depending on whether the focal point of the light beam is ahead or behind the signal surface. In this case, the point where the voltage level is "0" is set as the focal point between the focal point of the light beam and the signal surface.

る。That is, when the focal point of the light beam is in focus with respect to the signal surface, the light receiving spot on the photodetector is set to a substantially perfect circle, and the voltage level of the focus error signal is set to "0". In this case, the adjustment is performed such that the center of the light receiving spot coincides with the intersection of the dividing lines arranged in a cross shape so as to form a four-divided light receiving area of the photodetector.

In some cases, the position of the projected light receiving spot is shifted.

ずれる。In the case of an optical head employing the astigmatism method, the positional deviation of the light receiving spot is determined by dividing the light receiving spot by dividing lines arranged in a cross shape so as to form a four-divided light receiving area of the photodetector. 2. As shown in FIG. 2, each state of the focal position of the light beam with respect to the signal surface, that is,
A state in which the focal position of the light beam is ahead of the signal plane (shown in FIG. 2A), and a focused state in which the focal position of the light beam matches the signal plane (shown in FIG. 2B) And the state where the focal position of the light beam is behind the signal plane (FIG. 2).
(Shown in (c)), the center of the light receiving spot is shifted from the intersection of each dividing line in each astigmatism pattern of the light receiving spot.

フォーカス制御が行われるという問題が発生する。When the center of the light receiving spot deviates from the intersection of the dividing lines, the voltage level of the focus error signal does not become "0" in the in-focus state shown in FIG. This causes a problem that focus control is performed in a state where the focus position of the light beam is shifted.
