The present invention relates to an optical recording apparatus, which converts a one-dimensional signal beam into a two-dimensional signal beam using a scanning mirror at the time of recording data on a holographic recording medium, etc., thus greatly reducing required manufacturing processes when manufacturing a spatial light modulator. The optical recording apparatus includes a light generation and radiation means for generating beams, and dispersing and radiating the beams in two directions. A reference beam radiation means converts radiation angles of reference beams and radiates the reference beams having different angles onto a recording medium. A one-dimensional signal beam generation means diffracts and spatially modulates the beams incident from the light generation and radiation means to generate a one-dimensional signal beam and radiates the one-dimensional signal beam. A two-dimensional signal beam radiation means reflects the one-dimensional signal beam in two directions on the same horizontal plane and radiates a two-dimensional signal beam onto the recording medium.

The present invention relates to an optical pickup, and more particularly to an optical pickup comprising an optical modulator for reflecting and diffracting an incident light beam to generate multiple beams, and the optical pickup simultaneously reads a plurality of data bits using multiple beams at the time of reading optical disc information, thus promptly processing optical disk information, thereby the optical pickup of the present invention can cope with various types of optical disk media using light beams with different wavelengths.

Disclosed herein is a variable grating diffractive light modulator, which actuates lower reflecting plates of a lower reflecting array by a piezoelectric actuating method, and includes an upper reflecting array that is spaced apart from the lower reflecting array and attached to a lower surface of a substrate that is made of a light transmissive material and covers the lower reflecting array, so that the light modulator reflects incident light transmitted through the substrate and thereby produces diffractive light.

Variable grating diffractive light modulator

A light beam scanning apparatus is constructed so that light beams scanned from an image head form spots on a photosensitive drum to form an image. The image head includes a light emitting device and a lens system. The light emitting device has a plurality of light emitting sources arranged to be perpendicular to a rotation axis of the photosensitive drum to output multiple beams in response to video signals. The lens system allows the multiple beams output from the light emitting device form spots on surface of the photosensitive drum in a linear shape along vertical direction of the surface thereof.
