Exposure apparatus of an optical disk master, method of exposing an optical disk master and pinhole mechanism

摘要

An exposure apparatus of an optical disk master having a laser source, a deflector for deflecting a recording laser beam obtained based on the laser beam of the laser source and an objective lens for focusing the recording laser beam on an optical disk master, has a lens system provided between the laser source and the deflector, which has a first lens for focusing the laser beam and a second lens for adjusting the focused laser beam to a desired beam diameter; and a pinhole placed at a practical focal position of the lens system.
