An optical head device includes a diffraction grating which diffracts a part of the light beam which is selectively emitted from a semiconductor laser having two luminous points and is divided along a tangential direction of the track of the optical disk, a relationship of arrangement of the second and third regions corresponds to a relationship of the optical axes of the first and second light beams on the diffraction grating, the second region is located at a position crossing an optical axis of the first light beam, a phase difference between phases of the first and third regions is 180°, a phase difference between phases of the third and fourth regions is 180°, and the third region has a width which is not larger than amount of a position deviation of ±first-order diffracted light of the second light beam from zeroth-order diffracted light.
