Patent ID: 11347141

Abstract:
A light source device according to the present disclosure includes a first light source, a second light source, a wavelength conversion section, a polarization splitting/combining element, a dichroic mirror for reflecting second light and transmitting third light emitted from the wavelength conversion section, a retardation plate, a diffusion section, and a condensing optical section. Condensing optical section has a first end part, a second end part, and a reflecting part. Second light proceeding via the polarization splitting/combining element is transmitted through the condensing optical section from the second end part toward the first end part, and then enters the dichroic mirror. Second light reflected by the dichroic mirror passes through the condensing optical section and then enters the polarization splitting/combining element. Third light passes through the condensing optical section and then enters the polarization splitting/combining element. Polarization splitting/combining element combines the second light and the third light with each other.
