ABSTRACT:
In a waveguide optical system having a light waveguide, a light coupler for receiving and directing a light beam propagated through the light waveguide to a condensing lens for condensing the light beam emerging from the light coupler into the form of a spot, the coupling length of the light coupler is set so that the shape of the spot is substantially circular, whereby the waveguide optical system is made suitable for use with a high-density recording optical head or the like.
