Background
When illuminated by laser light, a Diffractive Optical Element (DOE) produces a diffraction pattern on the screen, projecting the pattern according to a predetermined design. Such patterns often have a bright spot in the center and high energy, which can seriously interfere with the recognition of the pattern if not eliminated, especially in the case of eye safety, limiting the improvement of the pattern brightness.
Therefore, in the prior art, there is patent No. 2017107883663, which is named as a laser projection device with adjustable zero-order diffraction, and discloses that the elimination of zero-order diffraction is realized by adopting an adjustable zero-order suppression unit, and further discloses that the adjustable zero-order suppression unit is a combination of a polarizer and an analyzer, in the suppression process, after the polarization is performed by a linear polarizer, the second zero-order diffracted beam is emitted to a half-wave plate device, then the second zero-order diffracted beam is subjected to optical rotation by the half-wave plate, the polarization direction of the second zero-order diffracted beam is deflected to a certain degree, and the third zero-order diffracted beam is emitted to the analyzer, part of the capability of the third zero-order diffracted beam is absorbed by the linear polarizer, and finally the fourth zero-order diffracted beam is emitted from the adjustable zero-order suppression unit and is projected to a zero-order beam projection region of a target plane, although the above-existing projection device realizes the suppression of the diffracted beam by the adjustable zero-order suppression unit, however, it has only an inhibiting effect and cannot completely eliminate the zero-order diffracted beam, so that the zero-order diffracted beam still exists in the projection process, and bright spots may appear if the pattern brightness is further improved.

and secondly, arranging a mirror surface behind the diffraction optical element, so that the incident angle between the central bright spot light and the mirror surface is a total reflection angle.

step two, one mirror surface of the eliminating prism is used as an incidence surface, and the other mirror surface is used as a reflection surface, so that the imaging light and the central bright point light formed by the diffractive optical element in the step one are incident into the eliminating prism from the incidence surface and are emitted from the reflection surface;
and secondly, adjusting and eliminating the placing angle of the prism according to the included angle between the imaging light and the central bright spot light, so that the incident angle between the central bright spot light and the reflecting surface reaches a total reflection angle, and the incident angle between the imaging light and the reflecting surface is smaller than the total reflection angle.
