Description

螢光體光源裝置 Phosphor light source device

本發明係關於一種螢光體光源裝置,其係藉由光源所射出的光來激發螢光體,並且射出從該螢光體光源裝置所發出的光。進一步地詳細說明,本發明的螢光體光源裝置係一種例如關於:作為具備液晶顯示裝置或數位微鏡裝置等的空間調變元件之投影機裝置用的光源來使用。 The present invention relates to a phosphor light source device that excites a phosphor by light emitted from a light source and emits light emitted from the phosphor light source device. More specifically, the phosphor light source device of the present invention is used as, for example, a light source for a projector device including a spatial modulation element such as a liquid crystal display device or a digital micromirror device.

近年,利用螢光體光源裝置來作為投影機裝置用的光源之技術研究十分進步。螢光體光源裝置,係藉由光源所射出的光來激發螢光體,並且射出從該螢光體光源裝置所發出的光之裝置,例如:使用發光二極體或半導體雷射等的固體光源來作為螢光體的激發光源。 In recent years, research on the use of a phosphor light source device as a light source for a projector device has been progressing. A phosphor light source device is a device that excites a phosphor by light emitted from a light source and emits light emitted from the phosphor light source device, for example, using a solid such as a light emitting diode or a semiconductor laser. The light source serves as an excitation source for the phosphor.

上述螢光體光源裝置,普遍之構造係例如具備:2個激發光源;以及螢光體,藉由上述激發光源所射出的光而被予以激發進而發光,並且,螢光體係僅設置在各激發光源所射出的光呈重疊之區域(參照專利文獻1)。 另外,例如,具有以下構造的螢光體光源裝置也十分普遍:在將內面作成反射面的筒狀構件之內面使螢光體配置成帶狀,而使激發光源所射出的光從筒狀構件的側面之光入射口射入至筒狀構件內來激發螢光體,並且使螢光體所發出的光從筒狀構件的端面射出(參照專利文獻2)。 In the above-described phosphor light source device, a common structure includes, for example, two excitation light sources, and a phosphor that is excited by the light emitted from the excitation light source to emit light, and the fluorescent system is provided only for each excitation. The light emitted from the light source overlaps (see Patent Document 1). Further, for example, a phosphor light source device having a structure in which a phosphor is disposed in a strip shape on an inner surface of a cylindrical member having a reflecting surface as an inner surface, and light emitted from an excitation light source is passed from a cylinder The light incident port on the side surface of the member is incident on the cylindrical member to excite the phosphor, and the light emitted from the phosphor is emitted from the end surface of the tubular member (see Patent Document 2).

[專利文獻2]特開2011-253749號公報 [Patent Document 2] JP-A-2011-253749

然而,由於專利文獻1所記載之螢光體光源裝置,係僅利用各自從2個激發光源所放射的光呈重疊之區域內的光,所以無法有效地利用激發光源所射出的光,並且也無法獲得充份的發光效率。因此,在利用該螢光體光源裝置作為投影機裝置用的光源的情況下,會有光量不充份之問題。 However, in the phosphor light source device described in Patent Document 1, only the light in the region where the light emitted from the two excitation light sources overlaps is used, so that the light emitted from the excitation light source cannot be effectively utilized, and also Insufficient luminous efficiency is not obtained. Therefore, when the phosphor light source device is used as a light source for a projector device, there is a problem that the amount of light is insufficient.

另外,專利文獻2所記載的螢光光源裝置,其從筒端部射出的螢光之強度分布形成的並不均勻。在將其作為投影機裝置用的光源來利用的情況下,具有以下問題:雖然必須使光源在大致呈矩形之影像顯示裝置內,係以呈均勻之狀態來進行顯示,但螢光強度分布係例如會形成為高斯 分布之形狀,而無法有效地利用上述分布的周圍部分的光,進而造成光學系統的效率變低。再者,也會具有以下問題:因為激發光的強度分布沒有完全地形成為呈均勻之狀態而產生強弱,進而造成螢光的發光效率會部分地降低,並且螢光體本身也有損壞之虞。 Further, in the fluorescent light source device described in Patent Document 2, the intensity distribution of the fluorescent light emitted from the end portion of the cylinder is not uniform. When it is used as a light source for a projector device, there is a problem that although the light source must be displayed in a uniform state in a substantially rectangular image display device, the fluorescence intensity distribution is For example, it will form Gaussian The shape of the distribution cannot effectively utilize the light of the surrounding portion of the above distribution, thereby causing the efficiency of the optical system to become low. Furthermore, there is also a problem that the intensity distribution of the excitation light is not completely formed into a uniform state, and the intensity of the luminescence is partially lowered, and the phosphor itself is also damaged.

本發明係基於上述情事而完成者,其目的為:提供一種能夠獲得高光輸出功率,並且能夠射出具有光強度分布呈均勻的光之螢光體光源裝置。 The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a phosphor light source device capable of obtaining high light output power and capable of emitting light having a uniform light intensity distribution.

本發明的螢光體光源裝置,具有:複數個激發光源,並且最佳係構成為:使該各別的激發光源所射出的雷射光,各自在前述全息元件上的各照射位置所產生之各重顯圖像,重疊於前述螢光體的入射面。 The phosphor light source device of the present invention has a plurality of excitation light sources, and is preferably configured such that each of the laser light emitted from the respective excitation light sources is generated at each of the irradiation positions on the hologram element. The image is reproduced and superimposed on the incident surface of the aforementioned phosphor.

另外,本發明的螢光體光源裝置,最佳係構 成為具有:光學元件,其使前述激發光源所射出的光在前述全息元件的入光面上進行掃瞄。 Further, the phosphor light source device of the present invention has an optimum structure The optical element has an optical element that scans light emitted from the excitation light source on a light incident surface of the hologram element.

本發明的螢光體光源裝置,係具備:螢光體;及複數個激發光源,射出用以激發該螢光體的光,並且射出從該螢光體所發出的光,其特徵為: A phosphor light source device according to the present invention includes: a phosphor; and a plurality of excitation light sources that emit light for exciting the phosphor and emit light emitted from the phosphor, wherein:

複數個全息元件係位在:相對應的激發光源所射出的光被以沿著製造該全息元件時所使用的參考光束之照射方向進行照射的位置,並且配置於使記錄於該全息元件的重顯圖像生成在前述螢光體上的位置, The plurality of hologram elements are tied at a position where the light emitted by the corresponding excitation light source is irradiated along the irradiation direction of the reference beam used when the hologram element is manufactured, and is disposed to make the weight recorded on the hologram element The position of the image on the aforementioned phosphor,

將前述複數個全息元件所產生的各別之重顯圖像予以重疊,來使前述螢光體上的重顯圖像區域內生成光強度分布呈均勻狀態的合成重顯圖像。 The respective reproduced images generated by the plurality of hologram elements are superimposed to generate a composite reproduced image in which the light intensity distribution is uniform in the reproduced image region on the phosphor.

本發明的螢光體光源裝置,能夠作成為以下構造:使用記錄有由用以照明前述螢光體上的矩形區域的光所生成的重顯圖像之元件來作為前述全息元件。 The phosphor light source device of the present invention can be configured as a hologram element using an element in which a reproduced image generated by illuminating a rectangular region on the phosphor is recorded.

依據本發明的螢光體光源裝置,係藉由將激發光源所射出的光照射於全息元件來生成。在此,該全息元件,係用以使螢光體上的重顯圖像區域內生成光強度分布呈均勻狀態的重顯圖像。該全息元件的重顯圖像(全息圖)係作為螢光體的激發光來使用,並且構成為:使螢光體上的重顯圖像區域內的光強度分布呈均勻之重顯圖像生成於該螢光體上。藉此,能夠有效率地激發螢光體使其發 光,而且,例如,能夠放射出具有呈頂帽形狀的高均勻性的光強度分布的光。另外,藉由將用以激發螢光體的全息元件所生成的重顯圖像形成為具有呈均勻狀態的光強度分布,能夠避免螢光體的發光效率局部性地降低、或造成螢光體本身損傷等的問題發生。 The phosphor light source device according to the present invention is produced by irradiating light emitted from an excitation light source onto a hologram element. Here, the hologram element is used to generate a reproduced image in which the light intensity distribution is uniform in the reproduced image region on the phosphor. The reproduced image (hologram) of the hologram element is used as the excitation light of the phosphor, and is configured to make the light intensity distribution in the reproduced image area on the phosphor uniform. It is generated on the phosphor. Thereby, the phosphor can be efficiently excited to emit Light, and, for example, can emit light having a high uniformity light intensity distribution in the shape of a top hat. Further, by forming the reproduced image generated by the hologram element for exciting the phosphor to have a light intensity distribution in a uniform state, it is possible to prevent the luminous efficiency of the phosphor from being locally lowered or to cause a phosphor Problems such as damage itself occur.

並且,構成為:將複數個激發光源各自所射出的雷射光,在全息元件上的各照射位置所生成的各重顯圖像予以重疊在螢光體上,並且將藉此生成的合成重顯圖像作為螢光體的激發光來使用。藉由上述構造,即使個別的激發光源對全息元件的照射亮度較小,生成在螢光體上的合成重顯圖像也會形成為具有充份的高亮度。藉此,能夠使螢光體所放射的光之光量增加而能夠獲得較高的光輸出功率,並且可以減低對全息元件所產生之熱負荷。 Further, each of the plurality of excitation light sources emits laser light, and each of the reproduced images generated at the respective irradiation positions on the hologram element is superimposed on the phosphor, and the synthesized composite image is reproduced. The image is used as the excitation light of the phosphor. With the above configuration, even if the illumination intensity of the hologram element by the individual excitation light sources is small, the composite reproduced image generated on the phosphor body is formed to have sufficient high luminance. Thereby, the amount of light of the light emitted from the phosphor can be increased, a high light output can be obtained, and the heat load generated on the hologram element can be reduced.

以下,詳細地說明關於本發明的實施方式。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

第1圖係表示本發明的螢光體光源裝置之其中一例的概略構造。該螢光體光源裝置,係具有:雷射光射出機構10、及螢光體30,利用該雷射光射出機構10所射出的雷射光來激發螢光體30,並且射出由該螢光體30所發出的光。 Fig. 1 is a view showing a schematic configuration of an example of a phosphor light source device of the present invention. The phosphor light source device includes a laser light emitting mechanism 10 and a phosphor 30, and the laser light emitted from the laser light emitting device 10 excites the phosphor 30 and emits the phosphor 30. The light emitted.

雷射光射出機構10,係具備:複數個雷射光源11,構成用以射出激發各個螢光體30的光之激發光源;以及複數個平行光透鏡12,配置在各雷射光源11的光射出方向的前方側之位置上,並且將雷射光源11以預定的擴展角度所射出的光形成為呈大致平行的光。 The laser light emitting mechanism 10 includes a plurality of laser light sources 11 constituting an excitation light source for emitting light for exciting the respective phosphors 30, and a plurality of parallel light lenses 12, and the light beams disposed at the respective laser light sources 11 are emitted. At a position on the front side of the direction, the light emitted from the laser light source 11 at a predetermined spread angle is formed into substantially parallel light.

各雷射光源11,係例如:由用以射出振盪波長彼此相同的雷射光之半導體雷射所組成,並且配置成使被射出的雷射光之光軸相互平行地延伸。 Each of the laser light sources 11 is composed, for example, of a semiconductor laser for emitting laser light having the same oscillation wavelength, and is arranged such that the optical axes of the emitted laser light extend in parallel with each other.

各平行光透鏡12,係配置成:使其光軸與相對應的雷射光源11之光軸形成為一致的狀態。 Each of the parallel optical lenses 12 is disposed such that its optical axis and the optical axis of the corresponding laser light source 11 are aligned.

該螢光體光源裝置,例如係具備:反射型的全息元件20,藉由雷射光射出機構10所射出的雷射光來生成重顯圖像(用以重顯全息圖)。全息元件20,係配置在各雷射光源11所射出的雷射光被以沿著製造該全息 元件20時所使用的參考光束之照射方向進行照射的位置上。 The phosphor light source device includes, for example, a reflective hologram element 20 that generates a reproduced image (for reproducing a hologram) by the laser light emitted from the laser light emitting mechanism 10.

Although the reproduced image is not particularly limited, for example, when the phosphor light source device is used as a light source for a projector device having a spatial modulation element, it is preferable to illuminate the phosphor 30. The light is formed by the light in the rectangular area on the light surface. This reason is because the light incident surface of the spatial modulation element is generally formed in a rectangular shape.

That is, each of the reproduced images H1, H2, and H3 is formed to form a composite weight that is superimposed on the phosphor 30 and has a uniform light intensity distribution in the reproduced image region on the phosphor 30. Display the image.

本發明中,光強度分布呈「均勻狀態」係指強度分布(誤差)相對於平均強度在±10%以內。 In the present invention, the light intensity distribution exhibits a "uniform state" means that the intensity distribution (error) is within ±10% with respect to the average intensity.

在形成由全息元件20所組成的合成重顯圖像的位置,配置有螢光體30,其係藉由合成重顯圖像(激發光)而被激發進而發光。 At a position where a composite reproduced image composed of the hologram element 20 is formed, a phosphor 30 is disposed which is excited by a composite reproduced image (excitation light) to emit light.

For example, a heat sink may be used as a cooling means, and the heat radiating plate is provided in surface contact with the light incident surface of the phosphor 30 on the opposite side. By making the above structure, It is possible to prevent the phosphor 30 from becoming overheated, and it is possible to suppress damage or deterioration (deterioration) of the phosphor 30.

上述螢光體光源裝置,各雷射光源11所射出的雷射光係藉由平行光透鏡12而形成為平行光並且照射於全息元件20。在此,射入全息元件20的雷射光之配光分布特性,係例如具有:於中央部分形成有光強度最高的部位之高斯分布。藉此,將從全息元件20上的雷射光之各照射位置L1、L2、L3所產生的重顯圖像生成於螢光體30的入光面上,並且各重顯圖像H1、H2、H3,係在螢光體30上呈重疊來形成合成重顯圖像。在此,形成在螢光體30上的合成重顯圖像之光強度分布,係例如具有呈頂帽之形狀(均勻的光強度分布)。並且,藉由合成重顯圖像來激發螢光體30使其發光,該螢光的配光分布特性係以與螢光體30的入光面呈垂直的軸C1為中心而呈大致朗伯分布之特性(呈均勻之配光分布特性)來放射。該螢光體光源裝置所射出的光,係例如能夠藉由凸透鏡45將其形成為平行光來進行利用。 In the above-described phosphor light source device, the laser light emitted from each of the laser light sources 11 is formed into parallel light by the parallel light lens 12 and is incident on the hologram element 20. Here, the light distribution characteristic of the laser light incident on the hologram element 20 has, for example, a Gaussian distribution in which a portion having the highest light intensity is formed in the central portion. Thereby, a reproduced image generated from each of the irradiation positions L1, L2, and L3 of the laser light on the hologram element 20 is generated on the light incident surface of the phosphor 30, and each of the reproduced images H1, H2 is displayed. H3 is superposed on the phosphor 30 to form a composite reproduced image. Here, the light intensity distribution of the composite reproduced image formed on the phosphor 30 has, for example, a shape of a top hat (uniform light intensity distribution). Further, the phosphor 30 is excited to emit light by synthesizing the reproduced image, and the light distribution characteristic of the fluorescent light is substantially distributed on the axis C1 perpendicular to the light incident surface of the phosphor 30. The characteristics of the distribution (having a uniform distribution of light distribution) are radiated. The light emitted from the phosphor light source device can be utilized, for example, by the convex lens 45 to form parallel light.

並且,依據如上所述構造之螢光體光源裝置,將從複數個雷射光源11各自所射出的雷射光在全息元件20上的各照射位置L1、L2、L3所生成的重顯圖像H1、H2、H3,予以重疊在螢光體30上,藉此將生成的合成重顯圖像作為螢光體30的激發光來使用,並且藉由使合成重顯圖像的在重顯圖像區域內的光強度分布呈均勻狀態,能夠有效率地激發螢光體30使其發光,並且例如能 夠放射出具有呈頂帽形狀般的高均勻性之光強度分布的光。另外,藉由使用以激發螢光體30的全息元件20所生成的合成重顯圖像形成為具有呈均勻狀態的光強度分布,能夠避免螢光體30的發光效率局部性地降低、或造成螢光體30本身損傷等的問題發生。並且,即使個別的雷射光源11對全息元件20照射的雷射光之照射亮度較小,但生成在螢光體30上的合成重顯圖像也會形成為具有充份的高亮度之合成重顯圖像。藉此,能夠使螢光體30所放射的光之光量增加而能夠獲得較高的光輸出功率,並且可以減低對全息元件20所產生之熱負荷。 Further, according to the phosphor light source device configured as described above, the reproduced image H1 generated by each of the irradiation positions L1, L2, and L3 of the laser light emitted from the plurality of laser light sources 11 on the hologram element 20 is generated. H2 and H3 are superimposed on the phosphor 30, whereby the generated composite reproduced image is used as the excitation light of the phosphor 30, and the reproduced image is reproduced by synthesizing the image. The light intensity distribution in the region is uniform, and the phosphor 30 can be efficiently excited to emit light, and for example, It is sufficient to emit light having a light intensity distribution with a high uniformity in the shape of a top hat. Further, by using the composite reproduced image generated by the hologram element 20 for exciting the phosphor 30 to have a light intensity distribution in a uniform state, it is possible to prevent the luminous efficiency of the phosphor 30 from being locally lowered or caused. A problem such as damage of the phosphor 30 itself occurs. Further, even if the irradiation light of the laser light irradiated to the hologram element 20 by the individual laser light source 11 is small, the composite reproduced image generated on the phosphor 30 is formed into a synthetic weight having a sufficient high luminance. Display the image. Thereby, the amount of light of the light emitted from the phosphor 30 can be increased to obtain a high light output, and the heat load generated by the hologram element 20 can be reduced.
