As described above, in order to increase sufficient defocus detection sensitivity, conventional optical pickup devices use an optical system α for defocus detection.
Since a magnifying concave lens (8) is used in addition to the cylindrical lens (9) as υ, it is difficult to reduce the size, quantity, and cost of the optical pickup device. In addition, due to aging, etc., the relative positions of the expanding concave lens (8) and the cylindrical lens (9) become erroneous, reducing the reliability of the pickup device. This was done in order to eliminate the drawbacks, and the magnifying lens and cylindrical lens are constructed from one optical component, and the two lenses each have the functions of both lenses.
Both of these elements work together, and one is used as a Fresnel lens.
By configuring the above-mentioned optical components on both sides or one side, it is possible to provide an optical pickup device that is small, lightweight, low cost, and highly reliable.
