Abstract
A light emitting module packaging two light sources emitting two light beams of different wavelengths, and a compatible optical pickup device adopting the module are provided. The light emitting module includes a base, first and second light sources installed on the base, for emitting laser beams in different wavelength regions, a beam splitter and a monitoring photodetector for monitoring the optical outputs of the first and second light sources by receiving the beams emitted from the first and second light sources and split from the beam splitter in one direction. Also, another light emitting module includes a substrate, first and second light sources installed on the substrate for emitting laser beams of first and second wavelengths from both lateral sides thereof, a reflection member for reflecting the laser beam emitted from one lateral side of each of the first and second light sources to proceed in one direction, and first and second monitoring photodetectors for monitoring optical outputs of the first and second light sources. The compatible optical pickup device includes the light emitting module having the above structure, an objective lens for focusing first and second l…
