Abstract
Various types of pick-up lenses and optical systems for pick-ups are discussed. We evaluated optical performances of objective lenses. Aspherical lenses for CD player pick-ups have wider field angle compared to the conventional triplet objective lens. We also evaluated reliability of both plastic and glass molded lenses which are designed in the same way. Plastic lens caused spherical aberration due to temperature change. Optical pick-ups for CD players are remarkably simplified by means of aspherical lens or holographic element. On the other hand, pick-ups for write once or erasable optical disk system consist of many optical components. For these pick-ups, we developed a single bi-aspheric molded glass lens which has high NA (0.55) and remarkable light weight (85mg).
