ABSTRACT:
A 2-laser optical head in which the number of optical parts is small and an arrangement is also simple and a whole optical system can be miniaturized. As a construction to realize the 2-laser optical head, there is a construction in a 2-laser optical head comprising at least: semiconductor laser devices for rewriting and reproducing; a beam splitter for transmitting a laser beam emitted from the reproducing semiconductor laser device and for reflecting a laser beam emitted from the rewriting semiconductor laser device; an objective lens for converging the laser beams and irradiating onto a recording surface of a magneto-optic disk, thereby forming a spot for reproduction and a spot for rewriting; a detection optical system for detecting a reflected light from the recording surface of the spot; and a detection optical system for detecting a reflected light from the recording surface of the spot, wherein a dichroism beam splitter is arranged in a manner such that the angles between normal vectors of incident surfaces and incident optical axes and are equal to 45.degree., and the occurrence of a phase difference which causes a deterioration of a deflecting state is corrected by a beam splitter.
