There are provided an interference type optical head and an optical disk apparatus, which have a signal amplification effect and which can be manufactured in sizes comparable to conventional optical heads. In an optical disk apparatus that performs signal amplification by making a light, which is used as a reference light without being irradiated on an optical disk and, interfere with reflected light from the optical disk, a corner cube prism that reflects the reference light is mounted on the same actuator as an objective lens. Further, there is provided a movable portion that adjusts the optical path length of the interfering light in accordance with the kind of optical disk being read and the recording layer being read. A wedge prism may be used for the movable portion, and a spherical aberration correction lens and an optical path length adjusting component may be moved integrally. Thus, a stable amplification effect may be obtained while keeping the overall size comparable to conventional apparatuses.
