ABSTRACT:
An optical head device includes a light source which emits a light beam, an objective lens which condenses the light beam on the optical disk, a condensing lens which condenses reflected light from the optical disk, a liquid crystal panel disposed near a focal point of the condensing lens and having pixels, a driver which drives the pixels of the liquid crystal panel to pass the reflected light from a reproduction layer of the optical disk and partially interrupt the reflected light from a non-reproduction layer of the optical disk, and a photodetector which detects light passed through the liquid crystal panel.
