ABSTRACT:
An optical pickup apparatus, a reproducing apparatus, a recording apparatus, and a tracking error signal generation method are provided. Four light-receiving elements receive stray light of main and sub beams reflected from, out of a plurality of recording layers of the optical disk, the one other than that for effecting recording or reproduction. The four light-receiving elements are disposed individually near every side of the four-part split light-receiving element, of which light-receiving elements are disposed between the two-part split light-receiving elements. Based on stray-light intensity detected by the four light-receiving elements, intensity distribution is calculated for tracking-error signal correction.
