Optical pickup device, recording and reproducing apparatus and gap detection method
Kimihiro Saito,Tsutomu Ishimoto +1 more
TL;DR: An optical pickup device and an optical recording and reproducing apparatus are suitable for use with a near-field optical recording as discussed by the authors, which includes an objective lens composed of a solid immersion lens (SIL) the objective lens having a numerical aperture greater than 1, a beam splitter configured to reflect both of a p-polarized light component and an spolarised light component.
Patent
Optical and visual information recording medium, optical and visual information recording apparatus and method
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method to clearly record characters and figures between two recording levels in an optical disk, where the second information is recorded in a predetermined area in a radius direction and a angular direction on the optical information recording medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Readout Method for Read Only Memory Signal and Air Gap Control Signal in a Near Field Optical Disc System
Kimihiro Saito,Tsutomu Ishimoto,Takao Kondo,Ariyoshi Nakaoki,Shin Masuhara,Motohiro Furuki,Masanobu Yamamoto +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a method of obtaining an optical air gap control signal for near-field optical disc systems by using a solid immersion lens (SIL) with a 1.4 NA objective lens.
