Abstract

A focus error detection device to be used in an optical system for recording and/or playing back information, including a light detector made up of four light receiving elements arranged symmetrically with respect to the center of the light detector, a first operation circuit means connected to the light receiving elements for generating a focus error signal, and a second operation circuit means also connected to the light receiving elements for generating an off-set compensation signal. With this construction, and off-set of the focus error signal due to the deviation of the position of the reflection light beam is by far reduced as compared with the conventional devices.
