Abstract
A dual wavelength optical pickup head in which as many same parts as possible are used as well to direct light beams incident than light beams reflected from a reflective layer of an optical disk. The reuse of as many parts as possible allows to and a second wavelength emitted by a first and a second light source to an optical disk, a dual focus lens objective for focusing said light beams on a layer of said optical disk and a single detector which allows to detect light beams of either said first or said second wavelength.
