Detailed Description
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a light source system according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The light source system 10 includes a light source device 100, a first light splitting/combining device 104, a wavelength conversion device 107, and a light processing device 106.
The light source device 100 is configured to emit a first excitation light and a second excitation light, where the first excitation light has a first polarization state, and the second excitation light has a second polarization state different from the first polarization state. The ratio of the luminous fluxes of the first excitation light and the second excitation light is a preset value, and it can be understood that the preset value can be set according to actual needs.
The first light splitting and combining device comprises at least one transparent substrate, the at least one transparent substrate is used for guiding the excitation light of a first preset proportion in the second excitation light to one of the light processing device and the wavelength conversion device, and guiding the other part of the excitation light of the second excitation light and the first excitation light to the other one of the light processing device and the wavelength conversion device, and the first preset proportion is adaptive to the number of the transparent substrates. In this embodiment, the at least one transparent substrate guides (e.g., reflects) a first predetermined proportion of the excitation light of the second excitation light to the light processing device, and guides (e.g., transmits) another portion of the excitation light of the second excitation light and the first excitation light to the wavelength conversion device.
The light processing device 106 is configured to convert a part of the second excitation light into third excitation light, and the third excitation light is guided to the light-emitting channel. The third excitation light has the same polarization state as the second excitation light before being converted by the light processing means 106. The wavelength conversion device 107 is configured to convert another part of the second excitation light and the first excitation light into a laser, where the laser is guided to the light emitting channel to combine with the third excitation light, and the combined light emitted from the light emitting channel satisfies a predetermined brightness and color temperature.
Specifically, in this embodiment, the light source device 100 includes a first light source 101a, a second light source 101b, and a light combining device 102, where the first light source 101a is configured to emit the first excitation light, the second light source 102b is configured to emit the second excitation light, and the light combining device 102 transmits one of the first excitation light and the second excitation light and reflects the other of the first excitation light and the second excitation light, so that the first excitation light and the second excitation light are combined and provided to the first light splitting and combining device 104.
The first light source 102a and the second light source 102b may be semiconductor diodes or semiconductor diode arrays, such as Laser Diodes (LD) or Light Emitting Diodes (LED), etc. The first excitation light and the second excitation light are the same color excitation light, and may be blue light, violet light, ultraviolet light, or the like, but not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the first light source 102a includes a blue semiconductor laser diode for emitting blue laser light having a first polarization state as the first excitation light, and the second light source 102b also includes a blue semiconductor laser diode for emitting blue laser light having a second polarization state as the second excitation light. Wherein the first polarization state may be a P-state and the second polarization state may be an S-state. The number of the semiconductor laser diodes of the first light source 102a and the second light source 102b may be plural, and they are arranged in a matrix. Further, the first light source 101a and the second light source 101b may respectively emit two excitation light beams with the same power and different linear polarization states.
The light combining device 102 is a light combining film, such as a polarizing light combining sheet, and the light combining film reflects light having a first polarization state and transmits light having a second polarization state, and the light combining film may be obliquely disposed (e.g., obliquely disposed at an angle of 45 degrees) with respect to the outgoing light of the first light source 102a and the outgoing light of the second light source 102 b. In this embodiment, the light combining device 102 includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the first surface receives the first excitation light emitted by the first light source 101a and reflects the first excitation light, and the second surface receives the second excitation light emitted by the second light source 101b and transmits the second excitation light, so that the first excitation light and the second excitation light overlap and combine.
The light source device 100 further includes a light homogenizing device 103, where the light homogenizing device 103 is located between the light combining device 102 and the first light splitting and combining device 104, and is configured to homogenize the first excitation light and the second excitation light emitted by the light combining device 102 and guide the homogenized first excitation light and second excitation light to the first light splitting and combining device 104. The light homogenizing device 103 may include a diffusion sheet, a light homogenizing square bar, a fly eye lens, or the like. The light homogenizing device 103 homogenizes the first excitation light and the second excitation light (such as gaussian beams) into relatively uniform laser spots, and the polarization states of the first excitation light and the second excitation light are not changed in the light homogenizing process.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of a first light splitting and combining device 104 of the light source system 10 shown in fig. 4. The first light splitting and combining device 104 further includes a light splitting film 104b, where the light splitting film 104b is disposed on a side of the at least one lens substrate 104a away from the light source device 100. Specifically, the at least one transparent substrate 104a reflects a portion of the second excitation light to the light processing device 106, the at least one transparent substrate 104a also transmits another portion of the second excitation light and the first excitation light to the light splitting film 104b, and the light splitting film 104b transmits another portion of the second excitation light and the first excitation light. Alternatively, at least one transparent substrate 104a may reflect a part of the first excitation light to the light processing device 106, the at least one transparent substrate 104a may transmit another part of the first excitation light and the second excitation light to the light splitting film 104b, and the light splitting film 104b may transmit another part of the first excitation light and the second excitation light. It is understood that the at least one transparent substrate 104a and the light splitting film 104b may be disposed in direct contact and stacked, for example, the light splitting film 104b is directly formed on the at least one transparent substrate 104a, or may be disposed in a stacked manner by bonding a glue layer, or disposed at a certain distance. The at least one transparent substrate 104a may be white glass, and the white glass refers to optical glass that is not coated with a film. In the visible and near infrared spectral regions, optical glasses are almost ideal optical materials, stable in performance over a fairly broad range, easy to process, uniform, transparent and economical. The light splitting film 104b may transmit the excitation light and reflect the lasing light, such as transmitting blue light and reflecting yellow light (including red light and green light).
In this embodiment, the at least one transparent substrate 104a includes a first transparent substrate 104c and a second transparent substrate 104d that are stacked, the second transparent substrate 104d is located between the first transparent substrate 104c and the light splitting film 104b, the first transparent substrate 104c includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the second transparent substrate 104d includes a third surface adjacent to the second surface and a fourth surface opposite to the third surface, and the light splitting film 104b is disposed on the fourth surface. The first light splitting and combining device 104 further includes an antireflection film 104e, where the antireflection film 104e is disposed on a surface of one transparent substrate adjacent to the light source device, specifically, the antireflection film 104e is disposed on a surface (such as a third surface) of a transparent substrate (such as a second transparent substrate 104 d) farthest from the light source device 100 adjacent to a previous transparent substrate (such as a first transparent substrate 104 c), that is, in this embodiment, the third surface is further disposed with the antireflection film 104e, the first surface is configured to receive the first excitation light and the second excitation light, the first surface and the second surface reflect a part of the excitation light in the second excitation light, and the first transparent substrate 104c, the antireflection film 104e, the second transparent substrate 104d, and the light splitting film 104b sequentially transmit the other part of the excitation light and the first excitation light. It is understood that the transparent substrates of the at least one transparent substrate 104a may be disposed in direct contact and stacked, or may be disposed in a stacked manner by bonding with a glue layer, or disposed at a certain distance. The first transparent substrate 104c and the second transparent substrate 104d are both white glass, a certain interval may be provided between the first transparent substrate 104c and the second transparent substrate 104d, no coating or film may be provided on the first surface and the second surface of the first transparent substrate 104c, the light splitting film 104b and the anti-reflection film 104e may be formed on the third surface and the fourth surface of the second transparent substrate 104d, or the light splitting film 104b and the anti-reflection film 104e may be attached by colloid.
In detail, when the light source system 10 is operated, the first excitation light and the second excitation light with different polarization states may all be incident on the at least one transparent substrate 104a at an angle of 45 degrees, for example, the first excitation light with the first polarization state is incident on the first surface of the first transparent substrate 104c at an angle of 45 degrees, and almost all of the first excitation light with the first polarization state is transmitted to the light splitting film 104b by the first transparent substrate 104c and the second transparent substrate 104d, and further transmitted from the light splitting film 104b, and a part of the second excitation light with the second polarization state is reflected by the first surface and the second surface, another part of the second excitation light in the second polarization state is transmitted by the first transparent substrate 104c, the second transparent substrate 104d and the light splitting film 104b in sequence. Specifically, when the first excitation light and the second excitation light with different polarization states are incident on the first light splitting and combining device 104 at an angle of 45 degrees, the light with P polarization state can be almost completely transmitted, and the light with S polarization state has 4.5% reflection (i.e. the first preset ratio is 4.5%) and the other parts are transmitted when the light is incident on a single surface of the white glass. Similarly, when the excitation light is incident on the two surfaces of the white glass, the light in the P polarization state can be almost transmitted, the light in the S polarization state is reflected by 9 percent (namely, the first preset proportion is 9 percent), and the other parts are transmitted; when the excitation light is incident on four surfaces of the white glass (two or three white glass sheets can be stacked), the light with the polarization state of P can be almost transmitted, 18 percent (namely 18 percent of the first preset proportion) of the light with the polarization state of S is reflected, and the other parts are transmitted. It will be appreciated that 4.5% of the S polarized light is reflected each time it passes a surface of the white glass. When there is a plurality of white glass sheets, and polarized light is not required to be reflected on each surface, the surface of part of the white glass sheets can be plated with an antireflection film, a light splitting film and the like. Accordingly, the number of white glasses may be set according to the proportion of the S-polarized light that needs to be reflected by the light splitting and combining device 104. For example, when 9% of the S polarized light needs to be reflected to the light processing device 106, two pieces of white glass may be disposed in the light splitting and combining device 104, where the second piece of white glass may be a film antireflection film near the first piece of white glass, and the other piece of white glass may be a light splitting film disposed on the other side, so that the S polarized light passes through two surfaces of the first piece of white glass to generate two reflections, that is, 9% of the S polarized light is reflected to enter the light processing device 106, and other portions of the S polarized light is transmitted to enter the wavelength conversion device 107. When 13.5% of the S-polarized light (i.e., 13.5% of the first preset ratio) needs to be reflected to the light processing device 106, two pieces of white glass may be disposed in the light splitting and combining device 104, and a light splitting film may be disposed on a surface of the second piece of white glass, which is far away from the first piece of white glass, so that three reflections occur when the S-polarized light passes through two surfaces of the first piece of white glass and one surface of the second piece of white glass, that is, 13.5% of the S-polarized light is reflected to enter the light processing device 106, and other portions of the S-polarized light is transmitted to enter the wavelength conversion device 107. The light source system 10 uses a transparent substrate (such as white glass) as a light splitting device, and uses the transparent substrate to split light with different polarization states according to the transmission and reflection characteristics, so that the cost is saved, the influence of the optical coating difference on the light splitting proportion is avoided, and the consistency of the light splitting proportion is ensured. Meanwhile, the first excitation light and the second excitation light are controlled to enter the first light splitting and combining device 104 at an incident angle of 45 degrees, so that the light axis of the laser emitted from the wavelength conversion device and the light axis of the third excitation light emitted from the light processing device 106 are overlapped, and further the efficiency of the optical machine and the uniformity of the light are further improved.
Further, in this embodiment, the light processing device 106 scatters a portion of the second excitation light and converts a portion of the second excitation light into the third excitation light, where the third excitation light has the first polarization state, and the light processing device 106 directs (e.g., reflects) the third excitation light to the first light splitting and combining device.
Specifically, the light processing device 106 includes a scattering element 106a and a polarization conversion element 105, the at least one transparent substrate 104a guides a portion of the second excitation light to the polarization conversion element 105, and the polarization conversion element 105 performs a first polarization conversion on a portion of the second excitation light and guides a portion of the first polarization converted second excitation light to the scattering element 106a. The scattering element 106a scatters a part of the second excitation light having undergone the first polarization conversion and guides the scattered part of the second excitation light having undergone the first polarization conversion to the polarization conversion element 105, and when the part of the second excitation light having undergone the first polarization conversion is incident on the scattering element 106a, polarization-maintaining scattering occurs, that is, the polarization state is not changed but the beam angle is increased. The polarization conversion element 105 performs second polarization conversion on a part of the scattered second excitation light, which has undergone first polarization conversion, to obtain the third excitation light. Further, the polarization conversion element 105 is a 1/4 glass slide. The light processing device 106 further comprises a collecting lens 108a, the collecting lens 108a being arranged between the scattering element 106a and the polarization conversion element 105.
The wavelength conversion device 107 is a reflective wavelength conversion device, such as a reflective color wheel, a wavelength conversion material (such as a fluorescent material) is disposed on the wavelength conversion device 107, the wavelength conversion material of the wavelength conversion device 107 is excited by another portion of the first excitation light and the second excitation light to generate the laser, and the wavelength conversion device 107 also guides (e.g. reflects) the laser to the first light splitting and combining device 104. In this embodiment, the wavelength conversion material is a yellow fluorescent material, and the lasing light is a yellow lasing light. The light source system 100 may further include a collecting system disposed between the first light splitting and combining device and the wavelength conversion device 107, and the collecting system may be a collecting lens 108b configured to collect the laser light emitted by the wavelength conversion device 107 and guide the collected laser light to the first light splitting and combining device 104.
Further, the third excitation light may be incident on the first surface of the at least one transparent substrate 104a along an angle of 45 degrees, and the at least one transparent substrate 104a may transmit the third excitation light to the light-emitting channel through the light-splitting film 104b due to the first polarization state of the third excitation light. The light-splitting film 104b also receives the laser light emitted from the wavelength conversion device 107, and since the light-splitting film 104b transmits excitation light (blue light) and reflects receiving laser light (yellow light), the light-splitting film 104b also reflects the laser light emitted from the wavelength conversion device 107 to the light-emitting channel. The third excitation light and the laser combine at the light splitting film 104b and the light emitting channel, so that the light emitting channel can emit white light.
Further, in this embodiment, 9% of the second excitation light having the second polarization state is reflected. Therefore, the first excitation light and the second excitation light are split into two excitation lights of "excitation light of the second polarization state" (i.e., a part of the excitation light of the second polarization state) and "mixed light" (i.e., another part of the excitation light of the second polarization state and the first excitation light) by the first light splitting device 104. A portion of the second excitation light with the second polarization state is polarization-preserving scattered by the scattering element 106a (i.e. the polarization state is not changed but the beam angle is increased) and is collected by the collecting lens 108a to be emitted, where the power ratio is 9%, and the power ratio is the ratio of a portion of the second excitation light with the second polarization state (i.e. "excitation light with the second polarization state") to the sum of the first excitation light and the second excitation light, and because a portion of the second excitation light with the second polarization state passes through the polarization conversion element 105 (e.g. 1/4 glass slide) during the emitting and the incident process, a portion of the second excitation light with the second polarization state is converted into the third excitation light with the first polarization state, and is completely transmitted when passing through the first light splitting device 104 again. Further, the power ratio of the other part of the second excitation light with the second polarization state to the first excitation light (i.e. "mixed light") is 91%, where the power ratio is the ratio of the other part of the second excitation light with the second polarization state to the sum of the first excitation light (i.e. "mixed light") and the first excitation light to the second excitation light, and the other part of the second excitation light with the second polarization state to the first excitation light is used to excite the wavelength conversion material of the wavelength conversion device 107 to generate a excited light (such as yellow excited light), and the excited light is reflected at a large angle and is emitted after being collected by the collecting lens 108b, and is totally reflected when passing through the first light splitting and combining device 104, and the reflected excited light and the transmitted third excitation light are mixed into white light or light with a specific color (such as polarized light or blue light).
In the light source system 10 of the present invention, the first light splitting device 104 includes at least one transparent substrate 104a and a light splitting film 104b stacked on the at least one transparent substrate 104a, and the at least one transparent substrate 104a splits the first excitation light and the second excitation light, so that the light processing device 106 and the wavelength conversion device 107 generate scattered excitation light and the laser light for the excitation light, respectively, and the scattered excitation light and the laser light are finally combined in the light-emitting channel, and the at least one transparent substrate 104a and the light splitting film 104b can split the first excitation light and the second excitation light by using the transmission and reflection characteristics of the light with different polarization states, so that not only the volume is smaller, the light utilization ratio is higher, but also the light splitting is uniform, and the phenomenon of uneven light emission caused by regional light splitting does not occur, so that the volume of the light source system 10 is smaller, the light utilization ratio is higher, and the light emission is uniform.
Further, in the first light splitting and combining device 104, the light splitting film 104b transmits the third excitation light converted by the first excitation light and reflects the laser light, so that not only the optical efficiency is improved, but also the structure of the light source system 10 is compact and the volume is smaller, so that the light source system 10 is a cheap and efficient light source.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of a first light splitting and combining device of a light source system according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The light source system is basically the same in structure as the light source system of the first embodiment, that is, the above description of the light source system is basically applicable to the light source system, and the difference therebetween mainly lies in: the third surface of the second transparent substrate 104d of the first light splitting and combining device may not be provided with an antireflection film. Specifically, in the first light splitting and combining device 104, at least one transparent substrate 104a includes a first transparent substrate 104c and a second transparent substrate 104d that are stacked, the second transparent substrate 104d is located between the first transparent substrate 104c and the light splitting film 104b, the first transparent substrate 104c includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the second transparent substrate 104d includes a third surface adjacent to the second surface and a fourth surface opposite to the third surface, the light splitting film 104b is disposed on the fourth surface, the first surface is configured to receive the first excitation light and the second excitation light, the first surface, the second surface and the third surface reflect a portion of the excitation light in the second excitation light, and the first transparent substrate 104c, the second transparent substrate 104d and the light splitting film 104b sequentially transmit the other portion of the excitation light and the first excitation light.
In this embodiment, compared to the first embodiment, since the third surface is not provided with the antireflection film, the second excitation light having the second polarization state may be further reflected on the third surface, so that the proportion of the second excitation light having the second polarization state reflected by the at least one transparent substrate 104a (i.e. the first and second transparent substrates 104c and 104 d) of the first light-splitting device 104 is increased, for example, the power ratio of the second excitation light may reach 13.5%, that is, the power ratio of a portion of the second excitation light to the sum of the first excitation light and the second excitation light reaches 13.5%, and the power ratio of another portion of the second excitation light transmitted by the at least one transparent substrate 104a to the sum of the first excitation light and the second excitation light is reduced to 86.5%. Therefore, the spectral ratio, that is, the ratio of the transmitted light to the reflected light can be changed by providing or not providing the antireflection film on the at least one transparent substrate 104a, so as to realize white light with different color temperatures, which is widely used in many illumination, display or projection fields.
Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic structural diagram of a first light splitting and combining device of a light source system according to a third embodiment of the present invention. The light source system is basically the same in structure as the light source system of the first embodiment, that is, the above description of the light source system is basically applicable to the light source system, and the difference therebetween mainly lies in: the number of transparent substrates of the first light splitting and combining device 104 is different. Specifically, the first light splitting and combining device 104 includes a first transparent substrate 104a, the first transparent substrate 104a includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the light splitting film 104b is disposed on the second surface, the first surface is configured to receive the first excitation light and the second excitation light and reflect a part of the excitation light in the second excitation light, and the first transparent substrate 104a and the light splitting film 104b sequentially transmit the other part of the excitation light and the first excitation light.
In the present embodiment, compared to the first embodiment, since the at least one transparent substrate includes only the first transparent substrate 104a, the second excitation light having the second polarization state is further reflected on the first surface, so that the proportion of the second excitation light having the second polarization state reflected by the first transparent substrate 104a of the first light splitting and combining device 104 is reduced, for example, the power ratio is reduced to 4.5%, that is, the power ratio of a part of the second excitation light to the sum of the first excitation light and the second excitation light is 4.5%, and the power ratio of another part of the second excitation light transmitted by the first transparent substrate 104a to the sum of the first excitation light and the second excitation light is reduced to 95.5%. It can be seen that the spectral ratio, that is, the ratio of the transmitted light to the reflected light can be changed by providing or not providing an antireflection film on the first transparent substrate 104a, so that white light with different color temperatures can be realized.
Referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of a first light splitting and combining device of a light source system according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. The light source system is basically the same in structure as the light source system of the first embodiment, that is, the above description of the light source system is basically applicable to the light source system, and the difference therebetween mainly lies in: the number of transparent substrates of the first light splitting and combining device 104 is different. Specifically, in the first light splitting and combining device 104, the at least one transparent substrate 104a includes a first transparent substrate 104c, a second transparent substrate 104d, and a third transparent substrate 104f that are stacked, where the first transparent substrate 104c, the second transparent substrate 104d, the third transparent substrate 104f, and the light splitting film 104b are sequentially disposed, the first transparent substrate 104c includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the second transparent substrate 104d includes a third surface adjacent to the second surface and a fourth surface opposite to the third surface, the third transparent substrate 104f includes a fifth surface adjacent to the fourth surface and a sixth surface opposite to the fifth surface, the light splitting film 104b is disposed on the sixth surface, the fifth surface is further provided with a light splitting film 104e, the first surface is configured to receive the first excitation light and the second excitation light, the first surface, the second surface, and the third light splitting film 104b sequentially excite the first excitation light and the second excitation light, and the second light splitting film 104 b.
In comparison with the first embodiment, in the present embodiment, since the at least one transparent substrate 104a includes the first transparent substrate 104c, the second transparent substrate 104d and the third transparent substrate 104f which are stacked, the second excitation light having the second polarization state may be further reflected on the fourth surface, so that the proportion of the second excitation light having the second polarization state reflected by the at least one transparent substrate 104a (i.e., the first, second and third transparent substrates 104c, 104d and 104 f) of the first light splitting and combining device 104 is increased, for example, the power ratio thereof may reach 18%, that is, the power ratio of a portion of the second excitation light to the sum of the first excitation light and the second excitation light reaches 18%, and the power ratio of another portion of the second excitation light transmitted by the at least one transparent substrate 104a to the sum of the first excitation light and the second excitation light decreases to 82%. Therefore, the spectral ratio, i.e. the ratio of the transmitted light to the reflected light, can be changed by providing or not providing an antireflection film on the at least one transparent substrate 104a and providing the number of white glass sheets, so as to realize white light with different brightness or color temperature, which is widely used in many illumination, display or projection fields.
Referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a schematic structural diagram of a first light splitting and combining device of a light source system according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention. The light source system is basically the same in structure as the light source system of the fourth embodiment, that is, the above description of the light source system is basically applicable to the light source system, and the difference therebetween mainly lies in: the third surface of the third transparent substrate 104f of the first light splitting and combining device 104 may not be provided with an antireflection film. Specifically, in the first light splitting and combining device 104, the at least one transparent substrate 104a includes a first transparent substrate 104c, a second transparent substrate 104d, and a third transparent substrate 104f that are stacked, the first transparent substrate 104c, the second transparent substrate 104d, the third transparent substrate 104f, and the light splitting film 104e are sequentially disposed, the first transparent substrate 104c includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the second transparent substrate 104d includes a third surface adjacent to the second surface and a fourth surface opposite to the third surface, the third transparent substrate 104f includes a fifth surface adjacent to the fourth surface and a sixth surface opposite to the fifth surface, the first surface is configured to receive the first excitation light and the second excitation light, the first surface, the second surface, the third surface, the fourth surface, and the fifth surface sequentially reflect a portion of the second excitation light, and the first transparent substrate 104c, the third transparent substrate 104f, and the other transparent substrate are sequentially transmitted by the first excitation light and the fifth light.
In comparison with the fourth embodiment, in the present embodiment, since the fifth surface is not provided with the antireflection film, the second excitation light having the second polarization state may be further reflected on the fifth surface, so that the proportion of the second excitation light having the second polarization state reflected by the at least one transparent substrate 104a (i.e., the first, second and third transparent substrates 104c, 104d and 104 f) of the first light-splitting device 104 may be increased, for example, the power ratio may reach 22.5%, that is, the power ratio of a portion of the second excitation light to the sum of the first excitation light and the second excitation light reaches 22.5%, and the power ratio of another portion of the second excitation light transmitted by the at least one transparent substrate 104a to the sum of the first excitation light and the second excitation light is reduced to 77.5%. Therefore, the spectral ratio, that is, the ratio of the transmitted light to the reflected light can be changed by providing or not providing the antireflection film on the at least one transparent substrate 104a, so as to realize white light with different color temperatures, which is widely used in many illumination, display or projection fields.
Referring to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a schematic structural diagram of a light source system according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention. The light source system is basically the same in structure as the light source system of the fourth embodiment, that is, the above description of the light source system is basically applicable to the light source system, and the difference therebetween mainly lies in: the light source system further includes a light source controller for controlling a light quantity ratio of the first excitation light emitted by the first light source 101a and the second excitation light emitted by the second light source 101b to be equal to the preset value. Specifically, different color temperatures and white balance adjustment of the light source system are achieved by adopting a combination of first excitation light with a first polarization state and second excitation light with a second polarization state of different light amounts.
The first light source 101a and the second light source 101b each include a number of light emitting elements (e.g., lasers). In one embodiment, the light source controller may control the light quantity ratio of the first excitation light to the second excitation light to be equal to the preset value by controlling the number of on and off of the light emitting elements of the first light source 101a and the second light source 101 b. In another embodiment, the light source controller controls the light quantity ratio of the first excitation light to the second excitation light to be equal to the preset value by controlling the light emitting power of the light emitting elements of the first light source 101a and the second light source 101 b.
Specifically, the first light source 101a and the second light source 101b may each include a plurality of lasers, and the light source controller controls the on/off of the lasers with different numbers, so that the combination of the first excitation light and the second excitation light with different numbers can be realized, and the first light splitting and combining device is further matched to realize a plurality of different light splitting duty ratios, that is, the proportion of the transmitted light and the reflected light is changed, so that white light with different color temperatures is realized.
For example: when the first light source 101a can be turned off, the second light source 101b emits the second excitation light with the second polarization state, and the second excitation light with the second polarization state reflected by the at least one transparent substrate 104a of the first light splitting and combining device 104 has a duty ratio of 18%. When the light quantity ratio of the second excitation light to the first excitation light is 3:1, the ratio of the second excitation light having the second polarization state reflected by the at least one transparent substrate 104a of the first light splitting/combining device 104 is 13.5%. When the light quantity ratio of the second excitation light to the first excitation light is 1:3, the second excitation light having the second polarization state reflected by the at least one transparent substrate 104a of the first light splitting/combining device 104 has a duty ratio of 4.5%. As can be seen, when the light source controller dynamically adjusts the light powers of the two sets of lasers with different polarization states, the light splitting duty ratio of the at least one transparent substrate 104a of the first light splitting and combining device 104 can be continuously adjusted, so that the color temperature of the white light dynamically changes. For example, when the amount of the second excitation light having the second polarization state emitted by the second light source 101b is adjusted to zero, the light emitted by the light source system 10 is yellow light, and the color temperature is low; when the light quantity of the first excitation light with the first polarization state emitted by the first light source 101b is adjusted to zero, white light with higher color temperature is emitted by the system.
In this embodiment, the number of lasers turned on by the first light source 101a and the second light source 101b is controlled, or the combination of the amounts of the first excitation light and the second excitation light is dynamically adjusted, and the combination of the first light splitting and combining device 104 is combined, so that a light source system with a wider color temperature range, high efficiency and dynamic white balance adjustment can be realized.

In this embodiment, the first excitation light and the second excitation light form a plurality of light spots on the surface 41 of the first light splitting/combining device 1104' that receives the first excitation light and the second excitation light, the number of the first areas 41a ' is plural, and the first areas 41a ' are in one-to-one correspondence with the light spots.
In the light source system using the diffusing device 1103, the first excitation light and the second excitation light form separate excitation light spots in the first region 41a, as shown in fig. 20, in this case, an area without an antireflection film (i.e., the first region 41a ') is provided for the shape and the size of the excitation light spots, so that the first region 41a ' splits the transmittance characteristic of polarized light by using a 45 ° transparent substrate (i.e., the excitation light enters the first region 41a ' of the first light splitting and combining device 1104' at an incident angle of 45 °), the etendue of the scattered light (i.e., the third excitation light) passing through the light processing device is large, and the boundary range of the light beam in the first region 41a is large, so that there is a small reflection loss in the first region 41a without an antireflection film, and the first light splitting and combining device 1104' transmits completely in the second region 41b with an antireflection film, thereby improving the optical utilization rate.
It is to be understood that, in the fourteenth and fifteenth embodiments, the first and second light sources 1101, the light combining device 1102, and the light homogenizing device 1103 in the light source apparatus may be the same as the first and second light sources 101, the light combining device 102, and the light homogenizing device 103 in the first embodiment, and the scattering element 1106, the polarization conversion element 1105, and the collecting lens 1108 in the light processing apparatus may be the same as the scattering element 106a, the polarization conversion element 105, and the collecting lens 108a in the first embodiment, and the structures thereof will not be described here again.
