Abstract: The invention provides a method for performing layer changes for an optical disk drive. In one embodiment, the optical disk drive intends to move a focus of a laserbeam emitted by a pickup head from a present layer onto a target layer of an optical disk. First, an amplitude ratio between a first amplitude of a first S-curve of a previous focusing error signal and a second amplitude of a second S-curve of the previous focusing error signal is determined. The object lens is then moved towards a target position for focusing of the laserbeam on the target layer. A focusing error signal is then generated. The focusing error signal is then amplified or attenuated according to the amplitude ratio to obtain an amplified or attenuated focusing error signal. Whether the object lens has reached the target position is then determined according to the amplified or attenuated focusing error signal.

Abstract: An alignment method is described. First, an alignment layer material disposed on a substrate is provided. Then, a rubbing medium disposed on a surface of an alignment roller is provided, and the surface of the alignment roller is at a distance from the surface of the alignment layer material. The rubbing medium is used to align the alignment layer material, and the alignment roller is suitable for being driven by a torque and maintaining a particular rotating speed. There is a rate between the distance and the torque. When the torque of the alignment roller is larger or smaller than the range, the distance corresponding to the torque is calculated based on the rate. A distance difference value is deduced from the distance corresponding to the torque. Then, the distance is adjusted with the distance difference value.
