Abstract

A focus error signal detection device comprising an optical system for guiding a reflection beam reflected from an optical information recording medium to a photo-detection system side. A beam dividing system is arranged for dividing the reflection beam to two beams. Two photo-detecting units are arranged for detecting the two divided beams, respectively, each unit having light receiving surfaces arranged on a same plane. A beam position adjusting system is arranged for adjusting optical axes of the two divided beams with respect to predetermined positions of the photo-detecting units by simultaneously moving the two detecting units with respect to the beam dividing system.
