Abstract

An optical pickup apparatus and a laser diode chip which can simplify and miniaturize a construction of the apparatus is provided for using a plurality of laser beams of different wavelengths. The laser diode chip is a chip for the optical pickup apparatus in which a plurality of light emitting portions for emitting the laser beams of the different wavelengths in the same emitting direction are formed on a substrate. Light emitting points of the plurality of light emitting portions are located at positions which are different in the emitting direction.
