The authors designed a photo-polymer objective lens which can be used for b
oth red and blue lasers. The following two conditions were set to facilitat
e this lens production process.
1) We chose photo-polymer resin as one of the doublet lens materials.
2) One surface of the photo-polymer lens was designed to he Aat.
We installed this lens in pickup heads and played back some disks. Its perf
ormance was almost as good as that of a noncompatible glass lens.
