Abstract

See full text

An object of the present invention is to provide a wavefront aberration correcting device comprising a liquid crystal device that maximizes transmittance and minimizes light transmittance fluctuations even when the liquid crystal is driven by voltage. Disclosed is a wavefront aberration correcting device for correcting a wavefront aberration of light generated in an optical path of an optical system for irradiating light onto a recording medium or guiding the reflected light reflected by the abovementioned recording medium is characterized in that it comprises a pair of opposing transparent electrode layers provided in the abovementioned optical path; and a liquid crystal sandwiched between the abovementioned transparent electrode layers, for generating phase change in passing light due to voltage applied to the abovementioned transparent electrode layers, the abovementioned transparent electrode layer is arranged on an antireflective body comprising a substrate, and a finestructure formed on a substrate and having a concave-convex structure.
