Abstract

PURPOSE:To miniaturize the outside shape of the objective lens and to sufficiently assure the quantity of reflected light by integrally providing a collar having the plane orthogonal with the optical axis of the objective lens on the peripheral edge of the objective lens and forming a light reflecting film on the plane of the collar. CONSTITUTION:The objective lens 1 is constituted of a lens part 4, the collar 5 which is integrally provided on the peripheral edge of the lens part 4 by having the plane orthogonal with the optical axis 3 of the lens part 4 and the reflecting film 10 formed on the plane part of the collar 5. The higher reflectivity of the reflecting film 10 is more preferable. Multilayer vapor deposited films of, for example, nonmetals are used in order to obtain nearly 100% reflectivity. The vapor deposited films formed by using the ground surface of an optical material as a substrate and alternately depositing a material having the refractive index nH of the substrate material, for example, cerium oxide and the material of a low refractive index nL, for example, magnesium fluoride by evaporation thereon so as to attain the optical thickness (the product of the refractive index and thickness) of 1/4 wavelength are used for the above- mentioned film.

The present invention relates to an objective lens for an optical disc device. The objective lens in the optical head of an optical disk device is
Trunking drive and focusing drive are performed while the optical axis is always held precisely perpendicular to the recording surface of the optical disk. If the inclination of the optical axis with respect to the recording surface of the optical disc becomes large, optical aberrations (astigmatism, coma, etc.) will occur and various information signals will be disturbed, so the mounting position can be adjusted to maintain precision. Development of a means is desired.

For details on the measurement method, please refer to the Asakura Shoten publication August 5, 1984.
I will not omit it because it is described in "Optical Measurement Handbook" by Toshiharu Tako and two others, but since it is easy to measure the tilt angle with high precision when used in conjunction with a micrometer, etc., optical measurement using this autocollimator is possible. The positioning of objective lens 1 relative to the head was being adjusted. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Generally, the outer diameter of the conventional objective lens 1 is approximately 3 mm in diameter at the lens portion, and approximately 5 mm in diameter at the flange, and the autocollimator has an area of the flat portion of the flange and the diameter of the flange. The inclination is measured by detecting the reflected light that depends on the reflectance (previously about 5%). Recently, there has been a strong demand for miniaturization of optical heads, that is, miniaturization of objective lenses, and studies are underway on the possibility of reducing the diameter of the lens portion to approximately 1++n. However, as the lens diameter becomes smaller, the diameter of the tsuba also becomes smaller, and as a result, the area of the flat part of the tsuba becomes smaller, and as a result, the luminous intensity of the reflected light detected by the autocollimator falls below the detectable limit. The problem is that the function no longer works, making it difficult to tilt the objective lens #Jj4. The present invention was created in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems.
The objective is to provide an objective lens that allows easy adjustment of the optical axis inclination when attaching the objective lens to an optical head. [Means for Solving the Problems] Figure 1 is an external view of the objective lens of the present invention. A flange 5 having a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of an objective lens 1 used in an optical head of an optical disk device is integrally provided on the peripheral edge of the objective lens 1, and a light reflecting film 1 is provided on the plane of the flange 5.
Form and configure O.

FIG. 1 is an external view of the objective lens of the present invention, and FIG. part 4, a flange 5 having a plane orthogonal to the optical axis 3 of the lens part 4 and integrally provided on the peripheral edge of the lens part 4, and a reflective film 10 formed on the plane part of the flange 5. The higher the reflectance of the reflective film 10, the better. In order to obtain a reflectance close to 100%, for example, a non-metallic multilayer deposited film (dielectric multilayer deposited film) is used. This uses a polished surface of an optical material as a substrate, and a substance with a refractive index n higher than the refractive index ns (for example 1.51) of the substrate material (for example, cerium oxide) and a substance X with a low refractive index ntO ( For example, magnesium fluoride) has an optical thickness (product of refractive index and thickness) of 1/4.
It is known that the layers are alternately deposited to match the wavelength.

If the reduction rate of the flat part of the tsuba 5 is small, the purpose can be achieved even with an inexpensive vapor-deposited aluminum film. [Effects of the Invention] As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, even if the outer shape of the objective lens becomes smaller and the area of the flat part of the lens flange becomes smaller, a sufficient amount of reflected light can be ensured. Therefore, the inclination of the lens optical axis can be detected using an autocollimator or the like, which greatly contributes to improving the ease of assembling the optical disc device.
