An optical pickup provided with a semiconductor laser for outputting a linear polarized laser beam, an objective lens for condensing a laser beam from the semiconductor laser and supplying the same to a track of an optical disk with lands and/or grooves formed therein, a polarization plate supplied with the laser beam reflected at the optical disk via the objective lens and a beam splitter, and changing an overlapping region in which a 0-th order diffraction light and a 1st order diffraction light contained in the supplied laser beam overlap and a nonoverlapping region to linear polarized light orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to each other, and a photo detector supplied with the laser beam passed through the polarization plate via a focus lens and a cylindrical lens.
