    Abstract: An optical multiplexer and an optical multiplexing method capable of multiplexing light of four or more types of wavelengths are provided. An optical multiplexer capable of multiplexing light of a plurality of wavelengths includes a plurality of coupling parts each including a pair of main entrance paths, a pair of main exit paths, and a main coupler arranged between the main entrance paths and the main exit paths, the main coupler causing light entering from the main entrance paths to be coupled and exit from the main exit paths, in which one of the main entrance paths of the coupling parts is joined to one of the main exit paths of anther coupling parts and the main coupler has coupling length different from at least one other main coupler.

    Abstract: A retinal scanning display device including an optical system emits laser light to a pupil of a user, an optical multiplexer individually receives types of laser light having different wavelengths emitted from a plurality of semiconductor lasers, which combines the types of laser light coaxially to output the combined laser light. On the optical multiplexer, a beam shaper shapes the combined laser light into a light beam having a predetermined divergence or convergence angle, and a direction-of-emission changer changes image signal corresponding to an image to be formed, the direction of emission of the light beam output through the beam shaper within at least a plane intersecting the direction of emission. Then, an optical engine formed with the semiconductor lasers, the optical multiplexer, the beam shaper and the direction-of-emission changer guides the laser light emitted from the direction-of-emission changer to the position of the pupil of the user.

    Abstract: The invention relates to an optical multiplexer, a light source module, a two-dimensional optical scanning device and an image projection device, where the effects of stray light that has failed to enter into an input optical waveguide can be reduced. Light that is in or below the range of 2.5 times greater than the full width at half maximum of the light intensity distribution of a light beam that has not been inputted into an optical waveguide from among the respective light beams that have been inputted into the input ends of the plurality of input optical waveguides is prevented from overlapping with the multiplexed light outputted from the output optical waveguide in the output end of the output optical waveguide.

    Abstract: The present disclosure addresses the problem of providing a method for imparting liquid repellency to fibers even when the amount of water and/or a surfactant is reduced, preferably without using water and/or a surfactant. Provided is a method for producing liquid-repellent fibers, the method comprising a fiber treatment step in which supercritical carbon dioxide is used as a treatment medium and a fiber base material is treated with a repellent containing a liquid-repellent compound, whereby liquid repellency can be imparted to the fibers even when the amount of water and/or a surfactant is reduced, preferably without using water and/or a surfactant.
