The hologram (20) for spherical aberration correction is formed in optical
element (10). With respect to the first laser light which requires the
largest effective diameter, the hologram does not have effect on
wavefront. With respect to the second laser light which requires the
second largest effective diameter, the spherical aberration is corrected
by the holograms (21, 22) which are formed in a concentric and zonal
pattern and construct the hologram, and the effective diameter is
converged. With respect to the third laser light which requires the
smallest effective diameter, only the hologram (22) has the effect of the
correction for the spherical aberration. The hologram (22) is formed such
that its diameter is associated with the effective diameter required by
the third laser light, and the effective diameter is converged due to the
combination with the incidence of the diffused laser light
