摘要:
An optical unit includes a light source, a color separator, reflection-type image display elements, a color synthesizer, a reflection-type polarization plate, and an optical chassis. The optical chassis holds the reflection-type polarization plate and the reflection-type image display elements thereon, and has a translucent window on an incident light side of the reflection-type polarization plate while an exiting light side of the reflection-type polarization plate is sealed with an incident surface of the color synthesizer. A hermetically sealed space is defined by the optical chassis, the reflection-type image display elements and the incident surface of the color synthesizer, and within the hermetically sealed space is disposed a translucent liquid having a refraction index from 1.2 to 1.9.

摘要:
A technique according to the present invention allows a projection-type image display system to suppress the temperature rise of the polarization split devices and secure high image quality. Polarization split means has a polarization split device arranged in a medium with a refractive index larger than 1. The polarization split device has a polarization split surface on which a diffractive grating structure is formed to polarize and split light. An air layer is formed in contact with the polarization split surface. In a projection type image display apparatus or an optical unit using this apparatus, light fluxes are polarized and split by the polarization split means before irradiated to light valves and after modulated by the light valves and color composition is made from the polarized and split light fluxes before enlarged and projected by a projection lens unit.

The present invention provides a projection type image display device capable of affording a bright display of a high saturation and capable of ensuring a high reliability of optical parts. The projection type image display device is provided with a color synthesizer for color-synthesizing modulated and polarized light of red light, green light, and blue light, outputted from an image display element. The color synthesizer has an optical characteristic such that the transmittance including reflection by a reflecting film in the interior of the color synthesizer becomes highest for the polarized light of blue light out of the modulated and polarized light of red light, that of green light, and that of blue light. The color synthesizer also has an optical characteristic such that the quantity of the polarized light of blue light outputted becomes largest out of the modulated and polarized light of red light, green light, and blue light.
