Embodiment 1
[0026] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of an optical disc device according to a first embodiment.
[0027] In FIG. 1 , the beam emitted from the laser 2 becomes parallel light through a collimating lens 3 , and converges on the disc 1 through a beam splitter 4 , a quarter wavelength plate 5 , and an objective lens 6 . The reflected light from the disk 1 passes through the objective lens 6 to become parallel light, passes through the 1 / 4 wavelength plate 5, the beam splitter 4, and the cylindrical lens (Cylindrical Lens) 7, enters the photodetector 8, and converts it into an electrical signal.
[0028] The output of the photodetector 8 generates a focus error signal FE representing the focus deviation of the light beam focused on the disc 1 by the signal processing circuit 9 . The focus error signal FE is input to the focus control circuit 10, and phase compensation is performed in order to make the focus control system operate stably.
[0029] The focus error si...
Embodiment 2
[0037] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 to 8 .
[0038] In FIG. 5, parts having the same functions as those in FIG. 1 are given the same reference numerals. 22 is a diffraction grating, which divides the light beam emitted from the laser 2 into 0-order light and ±1-order light. The 0th order light is mainly used for detection of recording and playback signals, and the ±1st order light is used to detect focus error together with the 0th order light. A method of detecting a focus error using the ±1st-order light and 0-order light is called a differential astigmatism method. In addition, the jump circuit 23 outputs a jump signal JMP for accelerating and decelerating the actuator 6 in the direction of the disk surface through a jump trigger signal JTRIG from the controller 12 .
[0039] FIG. 6 shows the waveform of the focus error signal FE when the objective lens 6 starts approaching from a position far enough away f...
