Abstract: Background plasma electrons in a laser wake field are trapped and accelerated using a sharp downward density transition. A short and intense laser pulse travels through low density plasma with a sharp downward density transition. The density transition scale length is much smaller than the wavelength of a laser wake wave. As the laser wake wave passes the density transition, its wavelength increases suddenly so that some background plasma electrons are self-injected into the acceleration phase of the wake field and trapped and accelerated by the strong laser wake field.

Abstract: An optical pickup includes an optical module that detects an information signal and/or an error signal by radiating light to a recording medium and receives light reflected by the recording medium. The optical module includes a light source; an optical path changer that changes a path of light emitted from the light source; a main photodetector that receives light that is reflected off a recording medium back to the optical module to detect an information signal and/or an error signal; and a hologram element that generates an astigmatism of the light incident onto the optical module. Since most optical elements of the optical pickup except an objective lens are packaged in the optical module, the entire structure of the optical pickup can be simplified and the number of bonding points for fixing the optical elements of the optical pickup on a base can be reduced.

Abstract: An optical pickup compatible with an optical disc having a deflection error. The optical pickup includes a blade on which an objective lens is mounted, a focus coil and a tracking coil mounted around the blade, and a magnet and a yoke driving the blade by generating an electromagnetic force induced by the current flowing through the focus and tracking coils, wherein the magnet is displaced a predetermined distance from the center line of the blade such that the electromagnetic force acting on the blade in a focus direction is asymmetrical. The structure of the optical pickup causes an intentional radial rolling of the blade to make the optical axis of the objective lens approximately perpendicular to the recording surface of the disc. Therefore, the optical pickup is effective for a focus control on a disc having a deflection error.
