Description

Light picker and the optical recording/reproducing device that uses this light picker
Technical field
Optical recording/the reproducing device that the present invention relates to light picker and use this light picker specifically, is the optical recording/reproducing device about being suitable for handling the light picker of dissimilar optical recording medias and using this light picker.
Background technology
Because the innovation of optical recording technology has recently obtained high record density and big recording capacity.For example mini disk (CD) pits size is about 0.83 μ m.Yet, exploitation recently can commercial Digital Television or multi-purpose disk (DVD) in the dimple size taked only be about 0.4 μ m.It is 1.6 μ m that CD uses the optical track spacing, and DVD to take the optical track spacing be 0.74 μ m.Be the dimple size of DVD and half that the optical track spacing is less than CD.The recording density of optical recording and playback depends on the diameter of luminous point, described luminous point is the object lens that light focuses on the recording medium to be focused on the recording medium by being used for, and the spot diameter of focusing depends on employed optical source wavelength and numerical aperture of objective (NA).In other words, the big NA of shorter optical source wavelength and object lens can obtain less focal spot diameter, therefore can reach than high record density and big recording capacity.
Organic dyestuff (organic dye) recording materials only be used to constitute CD-R (can write down CD) are used in plan, with only reach the light source that is approximately 785nm with wavelength just can obtain being equivalent to the CD reflectivity greater than 70% reflectivity.Therefore, use the light picker of the light source of single wavelength 785nm not write or sense data from the CD sense data with at CD-R.Yet, common light picker uses object lens and all such light sources of semiconductor laser with optimal wavelength that if can be provided for specific light recording medium with optimum N A, therefore, light picker is difficult to read or writing information on the optical recording media that differs from one another aspect recording density and the organic dyestuff recording materials.
For example, DVD requires to provide and has 635 or the light source of 650nm wavelength light.This light source can be used for forming the focal spot as on the CD-R recording layer.Yet recording layer can not reflect the light of this wavelength with enough reflectivity, and in other words, sufficient intensity writes on recording layer or the reflected light of sense data thereby be difficult to obtain to have.In other words, the light picker of the dissimilar optical recording medias of plan processing needs a plurality of emissions to be suitable for the light source of each optical recording media wavelength light.
And, for the correct reflected light that detects each optical recording media that comfortable recording density and recording method aspect differ from one another, in light picker, equipped photodetector with the light test pattern that conforms to each optical recording media.
In addition, being used for a plurality of light sources of each the light test pattern of optical recording media and emission different wave length light beam should be mutually with hi-Fix.Need the optical pickup that satisfies these requirements.Also have, need the optical recording/reproducing device that uses this optical pickup, the design of miniaturization promptly will be arranged and reach and on every kind of optical recording media, to write in high quality and read output signal.
