ABSTRACT:
In an optical system for converging light beams to form a single beam spot on an optical disc, a light beam generated from a semiconductor laser is collimated by a collimator lens and is guided to a prism member. In the prism member, the light beam is divided into two segment beams having same intensity distributions which are similar to that of the generated light beam by a polarization beam splitting face. One of the segment beams is reflected to an objective lens and the other of the segment beams is guided to a wave surface changing member. Which change the configuration or distribution of the other segment beam. The other segment beam having a deformed intensity distribution is also guided to the objective lens from the changing member and is combined with the one segment beam to form the single beam spot on the disc.
