Abstract: The present invention provides a multilayer printed wiring board having a filled viahole structure advantageously usable for forming a fine circuit pattern thereon, and having an excellent resistance against cracking under a thermal shock or due to heat cycle. The multilayer printed wiring board is comprised of conductor circuitry layers and interlaminar insulative resin layers deposited alternately one on another, the interlaminar insulative resin layers each having formed through them holes each filled with a plating layer to form a viahole. The surface of the plating layer exposed out of the hole for the viahole is formed substantially flat and lies at a substantially same level as the surface of the conductor circuit disposed in the interlaminar insulative resin layer. The thickness of the conductor circuitry layer is less than a half of the viahole diameter and less than 25 ?m.

Abstract: In holographic recording, it is important to form stably an interference fringe between a reference beam and a signal beam in a holographic storage medium. To suppress factors degrading stability of the interference fringe, such as fluctuation of atmospheric air, position displacement of optical components and the like during propagation of the reference and signal beams, an optical pickup and an optical information recording/reproducing apparatus adopt an optical system structure providing a higher proportion of optical components shared by the reference and signal beams optical path than conventional optical system structure. To increase the proportion of shared optical components, the signal beam and the reference beam pass through the PBS prism as parallel beams and a concave lens is placed on a reference beam path just before the objective lens.

Abstract: The hologram recording technology expected to realize ultrahigh-density information recording is one of the post Blu-ray Disc technology. When we think about developing a drive based on this technology and suitable for consumer electronics, it is considered most desirable from the viewpoint of upward compatibility to solve the problem of the BD-compatibility. The problem in sharing the laser light source between the hologram recording device and the current optical disc device, however, is that the hologram recording requires a high-coherent, single-mode light beam, while the current optical discs requires a low-coherent, multi-mode light beam. In point of the coherence of the light source, the above two cases require the light beams of the characteristics opposite to each other, and this presents an important task.

Abstract: An optical pickup for recording a hologram by using an angle multiplexing method. An optical beam is separated into two beams, a signal beam and a reference beam having different convergence/divergence degrees, by using an optical component such as a diffraction lens. The signal and reference beams are made incident upon the same objective, and the optical component or the objective lens is moved in a direction perpendicular to an optical axis, to thereby realize angle multiplex recording. If an optical information recording medium is inclined, the optical component or the objective lens is moved along the direction along which the optical information recording medium moved to change an angle of the reference beam incident upon the optical information recording medium and compensate for degradation of a reproduction signal.

Abstract: In an information recording apparatus using a hologram, a signal area of the light flux to be recorded is secured to be as wide as possible and the optical power loss is depressed during reproduction process. For this reason, almost the entire surface of the spatial light modulator is allocated as a signal area and the reference beam is collected on a micro mirror placed on its optical axis.

Abstract: A device testing apparatus including a connection terminal to which an electronic device under test is detachably attached, a pusher for pushing the electronic device in the direction of the connection terminal so as to connect the electronic device to the connection terminal, and a cooling unit for cooling the electronic device.

Abstract: In an optical pickup compatible with BD and HD DVD, when DPP method is used as a tracking error signal detection system for both BD and HD DVD, since the guide groove pitch of the optical disc differs between BD and HD DVD, when a diffraction grating for generation of three beams is shared by both, it is difficult to adjust a spot distance on recording layer of optical disc to ½ of the guide groove pitch for both. Assuming that lateral magnification of the BD optical system is M1, lateral magnification of the HD DVD optical system is M2, a spot distance of three beams on BD-R/RE is S1, a spot distance of three beams on HD DVD-R/RW is S2 the guide groove pitch of BD-R/RE is T1 and the guide groove pitch of HD DVD-R/RW is T2, a setting is made to meet Formulas 1 and 2.

Abstract: An optical pickup for writing information to and/or for reading information from an optical disc having at least two recording layers (dual layer) provided with first and second recording layers can prevent layer crosstalk resulting from disturbing a signal reproduced from the first recording layer by a reflected light beam reflected from the second recording layer during a writing operation for writing information to the first recording layer or a reading operation for reading information from the fist recording layer. An orthogonal polarization region forming component forms an orthogonal polarization region, in which respective directions of polarization of a first light beam focused on and reflected by a first recording layer of an optical disc and a second light beam reflected by a second recording layer of the optical disc are perpendicular to each other, in a region, in which the first and the second light beam overlap each other, on a light-receiving surface of a detector.

Abstract: An optical pickup device is provided which reduces variations in amplitude of a tracking error signal in a seek operation due to an installation error of the optical pickup device onto an optical disk apparatus, thereby generating the tracking error signal with high accuracy without any influence from stray lights, and which is high in productivity and low cost. Two sub-light beams are focused on at least one of forward and backward sides in a rotational direction of the disk with respect to a main light beam focused on the disk. When n is an integer number, and t is a distance between guide grooves of the disk, the two sub-light beams focused are spaced apart from each other by a distance of t×(n+0.5) in the radial direction of the optical disk. As splitting means for splitting the light beams into a plurality of beams, a diffraction grating is used which has grid grooves spaced apart at equal intervals, but having different angles at the upper and lower parts of an exiting surface of the light beam.
