Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent aberration deteriorated due to an area not having a satisfactory lens function by limiting the optical beam cross-sectional shape of an incident optical beam to an electro-optical medium to the area where a lens function can be effectively applied with the aperture of a masking means. CONSTITUTION:A thin plate mask M as the masking means is directly provided fixedly at the incident side end face of the electro-optical medium 30. The mask M is provided with light shielding property, and is provided with the aperture AP, and the aperture AP is formed in circular shape, and the diameter of it is set fitting in the size of the area where an effective lens function can be applied to the optical beam transmitting the electro-optical medium 30. The optical beam cross section of the incident optical beam BM is formed larger than the aperture AP, however, a peripheral optical beam part is shielded with the mask M, and the optical beam goes to the one with diameter corresponding to the area where the satisfactory lens function is applied, and is made incident on an optical device. In such a way, it is possible to block a beam which makes worse the aberration against the lens function by the optical device, and to realize the satisfactory lens function.
