Abstract

The present invention provides an optical device that achieves reduction in size, reduction in manufacturing costs, improved image quality, and so forth, by simplification and the like of a panel in prisms (POP) structure wherein light-modulating devices and a color synthesizing optical element are integrally formed. A POP structure is configured wherein pins integrally formed with a holding member are inserted through holes formed in the four corners of holding frames storing the liquid crystal panelsso as to fix the holding frames and holding members by adhesion. End faces of holding members opposite to the pins are fixed by adhesion to the side faces of bases fixed on the upper and lower faces of a cross-dichroic prism.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an optical device that integrates a dimming device that modulates colored light based on image information, and a color synthesis optical element that synthesizes the colored light modulated by the dimming device, a method for manufacturing the optical device, and an optical device using the optical device. projector. Background technique [0002] In the past, the light beam emitted from the light source was separated into three primary colors of red, green, and blue light by a color separation optical system such as a dichroic mirror, and at the same time, each color light was adjusted according to image information by three dimming devices such as a liquid crystal panel. Modulation is performed, and the modulated light of each color is synthesized by a cross dichroic prism, and a color image is magnified and projected through a projection lens, that is, a three-plate projector is known. [0003] In such projectors, each dimming device ...
