Abstract
A method for designing an optical pickup is provided. The optical pick includes a monolithic laser diode that emits a laser light beam for DVD recording and a laser light beam for CD playback, two photodetective portions, and an objective lens, for each of the emitting portions of the monolithic laser diode for emitting the DVD recording and CD playback laser light beams respectively, the specification of the error of the emission direction thereof is determined according to the following formula: |(Δθ⊥1×Δθ1×Dpd1/Dob1−Δθ⊥2×Δθ2×Dpd2/Dob2)×Kpd2|≦α, where, “1” corresponds to the DVD recording laser light beam and “2” corresponds to the CD playback laser light beam, Δθ⊥ represents the emission angle; Δθ represents the sensitivity; Dob represents the diameter of the light beam; Dpd represents the diameter of the spot formed by the light beam; Kpd represents the sensitivity; and α represents the tolerable value.
