ABSTRACT:
When recording/reproducing an optical disc having a recording layer of multi-layer structure, an unwanted optical beam reflected from a recording layer other than a target layer for recording/reproduction is incident on a photodetector to cause an unwanted disturbance component to leak to a detection signal, giving rise to a degradation in the quality of a tracking control signal. In an optical pickup apparatus, for suppression of the degradation, an optical element is mounted having a diffraction area for diffracting part of the optical beam and light receiving planes for sub-optical beams are provided each of which has a light shielding zone or dead zone of a predetermined width on its central sectioning line.
