ABSTRACT:
An optical pickup has a light source for emitting a plurality of laser beams with different wavelengths; and an objective lens for focusing the laser beams emitted from the light source on recording surfaces of plural types of information recording media. A diffractive lens structure is provided in a light path of the laser beam, the structure including ring zone areas divided by a plurality of phase steps for correcting a wavefront aberration of the laser beam, a diameter of an outermost phase step of the diffractive lens structure is smaller than a second largest effective diameter of effective diameters required for reproduction of the plural types of information recording media.
