The present invention relates to an objective lens for optical disks (high-density information recording media). As is already known, the objective lens used to read high-density information recorded on optical disks must have a resolution of about 1 μm because it must read high-density signals. Therefore, the numerical aperture (NA) of the objective lens is required to have a brightness of about 0.48. Moreover, this objective lens is often movable for tracking or focusing, and is required to be small and lightweight. In addition, as this objective lens is increasingly movable, the distance between the objective lens and the disk surface, that is, the working distance, must be larger than a certain level otherwise the objective lens will hit the disk surface. This may cause practical inconvenience. The lens according to the present invention takes the above points into consideration, has a bright NA of 0.48, and has a working distance of 0.39F.
Although it is sufficiently large at ~0.40F, compact and lightweight, it successfully corrects various aberrations, especially spherical aberration. The present invention consists of a lens composed of two elements in two groups, and the first
The group consists of a positive meniscus lens with its convex surface facing the light source, and the second group also consists of a positive meniscus lens with its convex surface facing the light source. The following conditions are satisfied when the focal length of the second group, r i is the i-th radius of curvature, d i is the i-th lens thickness or lens spacing, and N j is the refractive index of the j-th lens. This is an objective lens for an optical disk characterized by the following. (1) 2.0F<F 2 <2.4F (2) 10F<r 2 <20F (3) 0.5F<r 4 <0.7F (4) N 1 , N 2 >1.83 Each condition will be explained below. The condition (1) is for good correction of spherical aberration, and since the lens of the present invention is composed of two lenses in two groups, if the focal length of the second group lens is determined, the focal length of the first group lens is The focal length of the lens is also almost fixed, and the power distribution of each lens is all fixed. now,
When F 2 exceeds the upper limit and is large, the focal length of the first group lens becomes too small, and the amount of negative spherical aberration generated in the first group lens increases, making it difficult to correct the spherical aberration. Furthermore, when F2 is small beyond the lower limit, the focal length of the second group lens becomes too small, and the amount of negative spherical aberration generated in the second group lens increases, making it difficult to correct the spherical aberration. Conditions (2) and (3) are conditions for correcting coma aberration by adjusting the sine condition, and correction of aberration of an objective lens for optical disks basically improves the image performance on the optical axis of the lens. In order to improve the image quality, it is sufficient to correct spherical aberration, but misalignment of the optical axis due to lens setting is unavoidable, and a certain degree of off-axis image performance must be corrected. To achieve this, it is necessary to improve the sine conditions and correct coma aberration. Now, when r 2 in condition (2) exceeds the upper limit and is large, the amount of unsatisfactory sine condition becomes too large and positive, leading to an increase in coma aberration, which is undesirable. Furthermore, when r 2 is smaller than the lower limit, the amount of unsatisfactory sine condition becomes negative and too large, leading to an increase in coma aberration, which is undesirable. When r 4 in condition (3) is larger than the upper limit,
The amount of unsatisfactory sine condition becomes too large and positive, which leads to an increase in coma aberration, which is undesirable. Furthermore, when r 4 is small beyond the lower limit, the amount of unsatisfactory sine condition becomes negative and too large, leading to an increase in coma aberration, which is undesirable. Condition (4) is a condition for good correction of spherical aberration, and when N 1 and N 2 are small beyond the lower limit, the radius of curvature of each lens becomes small in order to obtain the same focal length. , the amount of spherical aberration generated on each surface increases, making it difficult to correct the amount of spherical aberration to the desired amount. The lens according to the present invention satisfies the conditions (1) to (4) above and provides an objective lens for an optical disk in which various aberrations are well corrected. Next, numerical values of Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3 of the lenses of the present invention are shown. However, Wt is the air distance (working distance) between the objective lens and the disk cover glass, t is the thickness of the disk cover glass, and Nt is the refractive index of the disk cover glass. Also, the refractive index is all about the wavelength
This is the value at 800nm.
