Abstract

A recording optical system comprising a semi-conductor laser of substantially single mode as the light source, an objective lens of which the focal point is located substantially at the beam divergent position of said semi-conductor laser in a plane perpendicular to the junction plane thereof, an afocal cylindrical lens composed of an element having a refractive power only in a plane parallel to said junction plane, an imaging lens, an aperture limiting the beam entering said imaging lens, and a photosensitive medium positioned in the vicinity of the focal point of said imaging lens.
