ABSTRACT:
An objective lens in which a first wavelength is used in reading a first optical disk, a second wavelength is used in recording or reading a second optical disk, and a phase shifter provided with annular step portions having a center coincident with an optical axis is formed in a single surface of the objective lens, the phase shifter producing a phase difference with respect to light having the first wavelength and light having the second wavelength, is presented. The objective lens can read well both a CD and a DVD.
