Abstract:
An optical source unit includes a first optical source for emitting a P-polarized light beam, a first detector for detecting whether the first optical source is normal or abnormal, a second optical source for emitting an S-polarized light beam, a second detector for detecting whether the second optical source is normal or abnormal, and a light beam combining section including a polarization beam splitter for transmitting the P-polarized light beam and reflecting the S-polarized light beam to combine the P-polarized light beam and the S-polarized light beam into an output light beam of the optical source unit.

Claim (Index 7):
An optical source unit comprising:\n a first optical source for emitting a first P-polarized light beam; a first detector for detecting whether said first optical source is normal or abnormal; a second optical source for emitting a second P-polarized light beam; a second detector for detecting whether said second optical source is normal or abnormal; multiple light beam splitting sections, provided serially on an output light path of first optical source, adapted to receive said first P-polarized light beam; multiple fixed polarization elements for converting S-polarized light beams outputted from said light beam splitting sections into third P-polarized light beams; and multiple light beam combining and splitting sections, provided serially on an output light path of said second optical source, adapted to receive said second P-polarized light beam or a P-polarized component of a pre-stage of said light beam and splitting sections and said third P-polarized light beams, each of said light beam splitting sections comprising: a first variable polarization element adapted to change a polarization direction of an output light beam of said first optical source or a pre-stage of said each of light beam splitting sections; and a first polarization beam splitter adapted to transmit a P-polarized component output from said first variable polarization element to a post-stage of said light beam splitting sections or a first light shield member and to reflect an S-polarized component output from said first variable polarization element to one of said fixed polarization elements, a second polarization beam splitter adapted to transmit a P-polarized component output from said second variable polarization element to a post-stage of said light beam combining and splitting sections or a second light shield member and to combine one of said third P-polarized light beams with an S-polarized component output from said second variable polarization element into one output light beam of said optical source unit.
