元スポットが金属膜と照射されることになる。As shown in FIG. 1, the recording medium (hereinafter referred to as an optical disk) of a source disk device that optically records or reproduces information uses a base material 11 made of glass or PMMA, and has a surface coated with tellurium, for example. It has a structure in which a film 12 made of a metal or the like is thinly deposited. In this case, in order to prevent deterioration of the recording surface 13 due to oxidation of the metal film, etc., two base materials are pasted together with the 51C1 recording surface inside with spacers 23 and 24 in between, as shown in FIG. 5.6, a sandwich structure is known, and a structure in which a protective film such as acrylic film is directly provided on the surface of the metal film 12 as shown in FIG. 3 is known. Therefore, in order to record or reproduce information on a metal film in a -01 original disk, the original spot that has passed through the base material 11 is irradiated with the metal film.

The light beam irradiated from 1 passes through a collimator lens 42, a dimming beam splitter 43, and a 1/4 wavelength plate 44, and is focused by an objective lens 45 to form an original spot. When the wavelength of the semiconductor laser 41 is 8300 nmO, the objective lens 4
5 and the numerical aperture is 0.5, the original spot diameter is approximately 1.5.
It becomes 6μIn.

信号で焦点ズレを検出する。Many methods have already been proposed for detecting the deviation of the original spot from the recording film.As an example, Figure 4 shows the arrangement of optical components in the astigmatism method. The light beam reflected by the recording surface 13 is passed through the objective lens 45 and the quarter-wave plate 4 shown in FIG.
4, changes direction at a right angle by a polarizing beam splitter 43, passes through a convex lens 46 and a cylindrical lens 47, and reaches a photoelectric conversion element 4. The photoelectric conversion element 4 is divided into 51, 52, 53, and 54 as shown in FIG. The signal is input to a dynamic amplifier 55, and the difference signal is used to detect a focal shift.

is converted into a change in shape. When the incident light on the recording surface is focused on the recording surface, the reflected light on the photoelectric conversion element 48 becomes circular as shown by the dotted line in Figure 5(b), and each received light beam is Since the elements 51 to 54 are uniformly irradiated, the output of the equal-motion amplifier 55 is zero. When the incident light is focused behind the recording surface, that is, when the distance between the objective lens 45 and the recording surface 12 is short, the reflected light is reflected on the photoelectric conversion element 48 as shown in FIG. 6 IC).

Conversely, when the incident light is focused in front of the recording surface 12, that is, when the distance between the objective lens 45 and the recording surface 12 is large, the reflected light on the photoelectric conversion element 48 is:
The output of the differential amplifier 48 has a vertically elongated shape as shown by the dotted line in FIG. 6(d).

5の位置制御を庁なうことは困難である。However, before starting to read signals from the optical disk, the objective lens 45 is usually placed at a position as far away from the optical disk as possible due to reasons such as mounting the optical disk. From this state, the focus control system described above is operated, and the position of the objective lens 45 is controlled to the appropriate position, 1. At the initial position of the objective lens 45, the output signal of the differential amplifier 56 is as shown in FIG. It is in the nonlinear part of the figure 8 characteristic shown in e). In other words, since it is outside the control operation range of the focus control system, the objective lens 4 is turned on at the same time as the entire circuit is turned on.
It is difficult to manage the position control of 5.

ある。However, as mentioned above, if the objective lens 45) starts moving from a position sufficiently far away from the optical disc, the character 8 characteristic ((, the original disc's original Since the figure-8 characteristic appears due to reflection from the material surface or the protective film surface of the recording surface, there is a drawback that the objective lens is erroneously automatically focused on a position other than the recording surface.

とする。In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention (in order to prevent the focal position of the objective lens 45 from crossing the original disk substrate surface when retracting to automatic focusing), the # moving town dark blue range of the objective lens 45 is This is defined in relation to the thickness of the disk base material.In other words, in the present invention, the focal position of the objective lens at the time of retraction is within the y6 disk base material. It is characterized by a stopper.

外には出ることがない。Further, 61 is a stopper that determines the lower limit position of the objective lens 45, and 62 is a stopper that determines the upper limit position of the lens 45. Figure (a) shows a state where one focal point of the anti-acid lens 45 coincides with the recording surface 12, and the center of the movable range of the objective lens is located at the center of the objective lens movable range. It shows a state in which the nose tines 45 have descended to a downward slope. For example, in a case where 1.2M thick glass is used for the base material 11 and the vertical movement amount of the objective lens 45 is set to 0.6, which is half of 1c1.2+a+, the distance between the original disk mounting surface (not shown) and the objective lens is Even considering the positional error of the stopper 61 that determines the lower limit,
The focal position of the objective lens 45 does not go beyond the blank 1173λ of the original disk during the retracting operation for focus and control described above.
