Abstract
Between a semiconductor laser diode and an optical disk, a collimator lens for collimating a laser beam output from the semiconductor laser diode, a liquid crystal optical shutter for attenuating the collimated beam having passed through the collimator lens, and a beam splitter for splitting reflected light from the optical disk are disposed. In addition, a collective lens for collecting the collimated beam obtained by the collimator lens on a data holding surface of the optical disk is further disposed.
