Optical pickup with a first detector to receive reflected data component signal and a second detector to receive reflected other component signal

摘要

An optical pickup irradiates a record surface of an optical storage medium with light and receives the light reflected by the record surface. The reflected light includes a data signal light corresponding to data recorded on the optical storage medium and other light. The optical pickup comprises a light source, a data photo detector, another photo detector, a base, a beam splitter, an introductive optical element, and a lens. The light source emits the light to the record surface. The data photo detector receives the data signal light. The another photo detector receives the other light. On the base, the light source, the data photo detector and the another photo detector are arranged. The beam splitter transmits the light from the light source and separates the reflected light from the optical record medium into the data signal light and the other light. The introductive optical element introduces the data signal light to the data photo detector and the other light to the another photo detector. The lens condenses the light from the light source transmitted through the beam splitter on the optical record medium and introduces the reflected light from the optical record medium to the beam splitter.
