Optical pickup device and optical disk device
An optical pickup device is disclosed. The device includes: a light source that emits a light beam of a predetermined wavelength of about 405 nm; an objective lens being a plastic lens provided with, on at least one surface, diffraction means of a zone diffractive structure suppressing generation of aberration to be caused by a temperature change, and has a numerical aperture of 0.82 or larger for gathering the light beam emitted from the light source with respect to an optical disk; and a collimator lens disposed between the light source and the objective lens, and derives a substantially-collimated light by converting an angle of divergence of the light beam emitted from the light source.
