- reference numeral 201 denotes a semiconductor laser
- reference numeral 202 denotes a beam splitter
- reference numeral 204 denotes a collimating lens
- reference numeral 205 denotes an objective lens
- reference numeral 206 denotes an optical disk
- reference numeral 206 denotes a relay lens
- reference numeral 208 Is a photodetector.
- the laser light emitted from the semiconductor laser 201 passes through the beam splitter 202, becomes substantially parallel light by the collimating lens 204, and is recorded / reproduced by the objective lens 205 through the substrate of the optical disk 206. It is focused on the surface.

For signal detection The light is led to the light detector 208.
- the light beam incident on the photodetector 208 is received by being divided into six light receiving areas 208a to 208f.
- the first tracking error signal TE1 is detected by using the signals received by the light receiving regions 208e and 208f, and the signals received by the light receiving regions 208d to 208d are used to detect the first tracking error signal TE1.
- the second tracking error signal TE 2 is detected.
- the tracking error signal is a push-pull signal
- the tracking error signals TE 1 and TE 2 are expressed by the following equations.
- Tracking error signal TE 1 Signal received in light receiving area 20 8 e
- Tracking error signal TE 2 (signal received at light receiving area 208a + signal received at light receiving area 208b) 1 (signal received at light receiving area 208c + light received at light receiving area 208d Signal),
- the optical disc tilt can be detected by comparing the phases of the first tracking error signal TE1 and the second tracking error signal TE2.
- FIG. 25B is a diagram in which the range of the light receiving region is superimposed on the light intensity distribution of the detection light beam when the optical disk is tilted in the radial direction. Asymmetry appears in the intensity distribution of the luminous flux according to the tilt of the optical disc, and as shown in FIG. 25B, a large portion of the asymmetry exists in the light receiving regions 208e and 208f. Therefore, the influence of the tilt of the optical disc differs between the first tracking error signal TE1 and the second tracking error signal TE2.
- the two tracking error signals TE 1 and TE 2 When the optical disk is not tilted, the two tracking error signals TE 1 and TE 2 have the same phase, but when the optical disk is tilted, the two tracking error signals TE 1 and TE 2 A phase shift occurs between the king error signals TE 1 and TE 2. Since the degree of influence of the optical disk tilt differs for each signal, it is possible to detect the tilt of the optical disk by comparing the phases of the first tracking error signal TE1 and the second tracking error signal TE2. It becomes possible. Note that the conventional push-pull signal, that is,
- Push-pull signal TE 3 (signal received in light-receiving area 208 a + signal received in light-receiving area 208 b + signal received in light-receiving area 208 e) 1 (light-receiving area 2 Signal received at 08 c + signal received at light receiving area 208 d + light receiving area 208: signal received at f),
- the push-pull signal TE 3 obtained by the above calculation as the first tracking error signal TE 1, it is also possible to detect the tilt of the optical disk. This is because the conventional push-pull signal TE 3 is equivalent to the sum signal of the tracking error signals TE 1 and TE 2, so that the first and second tracking error signals TE 1 and TE 2 This is because a sufficiently detectable phase difference occurs.
- the spherical aberration detecting means and the tilt detecting means are independently configured, the hologram pattern and the photodetector pattern for detecting both aberrations interfere with each other. There are issues. On the other hand, an increase in the number of divisions of the light beam results in a decrease in the electric signal detected in each light receiving region, and thus there is a problem that an S / N ratio required for aberration detection cannot be obtained.
- the present invention realizes spherical aberration detection and tilt detection simultaneously with a simple hologram and light-receiving element configuration, and also includes tracking error signal detection and focus error signal detection that can correct offsets when the objective lens moves.
