    Abstract: An optical pickup device having a semiconductor laser element (5) mounted on a substrate (2), a photo detector (3) formed on the substrate to receive a laser beam emitted from the semi-conductor laser element (2) and an optical element (6) mounted on the substrate to cover the photo detector to branch the direction of optical path of the laser beam. The optical element (6) is adapted to reduce the amount of unwanted stray light from the laser (5) reaching the photo detector (3). The rear face (6f) of the element (6) is coated with light absorption material (14) to substantially prevent said incident light from being reflected into the photo detector (3). The light absorption material (14) is chosen to absorb light of the wavelength(s) emitted by the laser element. The material (14) preferably has the same refractive index as the element (6).

    Abstract: A tracking error signal calculation circuit has peak detection multiplication circuits which detect the peaks of the detection signals of left and right regions of a photodiode and multiply a coefficient for detecting the deviation of the beam light with respect to the track of the disc recording medium, subtraction circuits for removing an offset by subtracting these multiplication results from the detection signals, and a subtraction circuit which calculates a difference of the signal obtained by removing the offset (performs push-pull operation) and outputs a tracking error signal. The value of the coefficient can be changed by adding an alignment signal to the detection signal. In order to impart the frequency dependency to this coefficient, the alignment signal is added to the signal through a filter.

    Abstract: An optical pick-up device for a recording and/or reproducing apparatus in which a light beam (31) from a semiconductor laser element (14) is converged by an objective lens (1) and irradiated on recording tracks (tR) of an optical disc (101) and the light reflected by the disc (101) is sensed to read and/or record data signals, includes photosensors (17, 18) each having an insensitive central zone (17b, 18b) and arranged to receive the reflected light to generate tracking error signals (TE). The semiconductor laser element (14) is so arranged that the light beam (31) is projected on the disc (101) so that the meridional plane of the light beam (31) extending orthogonal to the junction plane of semiconductor layers of the semiconductor laser element (14) is at such an angle with respect to a tangential line drawn to one of the recording tracks (tR) of the disc (101) that non-symmetries on both sides of the tangential line as a function of the de-focusing direction of the beam spot are compensated.

    Abstract: A tracking error signal generator for producing a tracking error signal by first detecting a light beam, which is irradiated from an optical pickup to an optical disc, by an optical detector so divided as to have two optical detecting portions in a direction of a recording track on the optical disc, and then controlling the light beam to follow up the recording track on the optical disc in accordance with the detection outputs from the divided optical detector. The tracking error signal generator comprises first and second peak detecting means for detecting the respective peak values of detection output signals from the first and second optical detecting portions of the optical detector divided along the recording track on the optical disc, and arithmetic means for forming a difference signal between signals obtained by applying a coefficient smaller than 1 to multiply respectively the output signal of the first peak detecting means and the detection output of the first optical detecting portion, and signals obtained by applying a coefficient smaller than 1 to multiply respectively the output signal of the second peak detecting means and the detecting output of the second optical detecting portion.
