Abstract

The invention relates to photo detection, and in particular to an apparatus and a method for focus detection in a multi-spot astigmatic focus system for optical storages in order to improve the focus detection. According to an aspect of the invention there is provided a photo detector system (312) comprising at least one photo detector comprising at least eight segments (402, 404, 406, 408, 410, 412, 414, 416), each segment providing a segment signal in response to an amount of radiation received by the segment so that at least eight signals are provided. The photo detector system (312) is adapted to determine a focus condition of the system (301) from at least one of the signals and to generate a focus error signal based on the determined focus condition in order to achieve an improved S-curve generation and operating displacement of an objective lens accordingly.
