Abstract

A temperature sensor is disposed in an optical pickup to detect a temperature of an objective lens. An optical element (for example, a collimator lens) is driven according to a temperature change of the objective lens, which corrects deterioration of an optical characteristic of a laser beam passing through the objective lens. Good recording/reproduction is smoothly performed even if the optical characteristic of the objective lens is changed with the temperature change.
