Abstract
For use with a multi-layer optical disc, an optical pickup can eliminate a problem of causing a focus error signal and a tracking error signal to fluctuate due to interference of a signal light beam with a return light beam from another recording surface of a multi-layer optical disc during reproduction with an optical pickup that produces a tracking error signal and a focus error signal from a difference signal based on polarized reflected light.
