Abstract

A grating mounting section for mounting a laser diode and a diffraction grating element is formed in a frame body of an optical pickup device. The diffraction grating element includes a main body provided with a grating face , a holder being integral with the main body while surrounding the same, and an arm portion protruded outward from the outer circumferential face of the holder as viewed in the radial direction. The arm portion is protruded outward through a groove formed in the grating mounting section of the frame body side. An angular position adjustment of the diffraction grating element can be carried out by turning the arm portion about the optical axis.
