Small form factor optical pickup (SFFOP) corresponding to BD specifications is strongly proposed for the next-generation portable storage device. In order to generate SFFOP, small sized optical pickup has been fabricated. We have developed a small sited optical pickup that is called the integrated optical pickup (IOP). The fabrication method of this system is mainly dependant on the use of the wafer based micro fabrication technology, which has been used in MEMS process such as photolithography, reactive ion etching, wafer bonding, and packaging process. This approach has the merits for mass production and high assembling accuracy. In this study, to generate the small sized optical pickup for high recording capacity, IOP corresponding to BD specifications has been designed and developed, including three main parts, 1) design, fabrication and evaluation of objective lens unit, 2) design and fabrication of IOP and 3) evaluation process of FES and TES.

Recently, various recording technologies are studied for optical data storage. After standardization of BD (Blu-ray Disc) and HD-DVD (High-Definition Digital Versatile Disc), the industry is looking for a suitable technology for next generation optical data storage. Super-RENS (Super-Resolution Near Field Structure) technique, which is capable of compatibility with other systems, is one of next optical data storage. In this paper, we proposed a neural network-based nonlinear equalizer (NNEQ) for Super-RENS discs. To mitigate the nonlinear ISI (Inter-Symbol Interference), we applied NARX (Nonlinear AutoRegressive eXogenous) which is a kind of neural networks. Its validity is tested with the RF signal samples obtained from a Super-RENS disc. The performance of the proposed equalizer is superior to the one without equalization and that of the Limit-EQ in terms of BER (Bit Error Rate).

Nowadays optical disc drives have become necessary. As the equipment is popular to use, competition of price and rotating rate have been harder and harder. Shock response analysis for the optical disk drives is rarely studied. In this paper the optical disk drive has 5-DOF system and each motion is presented by using Lagrange Equation. As the motion of the Pick up lens is important to read and write data, it needs to consider the pickup and disk. The lumped parameter model is compared with finite element model in order to make sure of the result. Results of the shock response analysis from various shock inputs are gotten.

The scalar diffraction theory of the read-out signal in optical disc is described. and numerical results is given. The strength of this signal depends on the shape of bump(pit) which show more or less rounding of the edge because of the photoresist process. It is shown that the ideal shape is the retangular form, with no rounding of edge. This form is not achievable in practise. but the results show that very satisfactory values of the read-out signal can nevertheless be achieved in the presence of the moderate amounts of rounding.unding.

This paper proposes a stable gain scheduling method of linear time invariant controllers for tracking servo system. In order to read and write the data on the optical disc, the pick-up head should be moved to the exact track quickly and follow the track immediately. Two different controllers are used for each moving and track-following. In pull-in period, a transition period from moving to track-following, the head might slip and miss the target track. This brings on another searching process and increases the total time. One way to avoid slipping is to extend the bandwidth of the track-following controller. But, extending the bandwidth could degrade the following performance. More prevalent way is to use one more controller in this pull-in period and switch to the following controller. In general, however, switching or scheduling of stable controllers cannot guarantee the stability. This paper suggests an scheduling method guaranteeing the overall stability not only in a generalized form but also in special form for SISO system. The sufficient condition is derived from the fact that Q factor of a stable controller should be stay in $RH_{\infty}$ space. In the experiment, the proposed method shows better performance than the switching method such as shorter time and lower current consumption.

The design method that the structure of double actuators of read-only or read-writable DVD optical pick-up of high density can be compact into the structure of one actuator, is proposed. The designed actuator has the structure of the shaft sliding type in which the moving part can be rotated about the shaft accord to a used optical disc and an objective lens can be switched, and is suspended with magnetic spring. In this actuator, Coulomb's friction is used as damping force and the moving part is designed by finite element method so that the second natural vibration mode can not occur within the servo band. The mock-up of the actuator designed in this paper is made, and its dynamic characteristics is measured and estimated.

This paper presents a control scheme to cancel periodic disturbance with unknown frequency for optical disc drives. The control scheme consists of an output regulator and a frequency adaptive algorithm. Here, the frequency adaptive algorithm based on IMP plays a role in obtaining a frequency of periodic disturbance. The stability analysis of whole system and disturbance rejection performance are proven by the singular perturbation theory. The contribution of this paper are as follows. (1) There is no design constraints of the frequency range. (2) Ability for perfect disturbance rejection is preserved even with uncertain plant model.

Polarizers with high polarizing efficiency and other advanced optical films based on Lyotropic Dichroic Dyes have been developed for LCD and other applications. The developed optical films reveal both rod-like chromophores structure in a case of positive, or O-films and disc-like one for negative, or E-film.

In this paper, experimental methods about the flow behavior of thin polymer film by various edge patterns in the spin coating process for stable cover layer coating of a blu-ray disc is described. The blu-ray disc, a next-generation optical disc format over 25GB, consists of a 1.1m thick substrate and a 0.1mm tick cover layer. Generally, cover layer on the blu-ray disc is made by the polymer spin coating process. However, it is hard to secure sufficient coating uniformity around the rim on the cover layer. In order to get the uniform thickness deviation and to minimize the bead around the rim, the edge of the disc substrate can be modified into various patterns, such as normal plain, trench, step and chamfer pattern, etc, around the rim on the disc and experimented with various parameters, such as surface tension, viscosity, coating time, temperature and rotation speed, etc. And the optimal shape of the rim was tried to get by 3 dimensional computer simulation of the polymer expulsion process.
