Optical pickup

摘要

A lightweight, highly reliable optical pickup including a singlet objective lens is offered by correcting coma aberrations which adversely affect properties of the objective lens having an increased NA. A convergent optical system is composed of a singlet objective lens with a NA of 0.75 or more and includes an aberration-correcting optical system which corrects coma aberrations due to an inclination or shift of central axes of both surfaces of the objective lens or an inclination of the objective lens or the optical storage medium to an optical axis of the optical pickup.
