Abstract: A polarized light illumination device is described, which includes a light source, a polarizer, a reflector, and a polarized light converter. The light source generates light. The reflector is used for reflecting light generated by the light source towards the polarizer. The polarizer allows a first polarized light to pass through, and reflects a second polarized light. The polarized light converter reflects the light irradiated on the polarized light converter and performs a polarization conversion. A plane where the polarized light converter is located is substantially perpendicular to the polarizer.

Abstract: A lens cap and an LED package structure using the same are provided. The lens cap includes a cap body made of a transparent material for being covered on a point light source. The cap body includes a first incident surface, which is a curved surface raised on a inner side of the cap body and refracts light emitted by the point light source into the cap body. A reflective surface is formed the outer side of the cap body and is opposite to the first incident surface, wherein the reflective surface reflects the light refracted by the first incident surface. A light-transmitting surface is formed on the outer side of the cap body, and the light reflected by the reflective surface is projected onto the light-transmitting surface to exit the cap body. Thus, the light is emitted towards the lateral of the lens cap along a horizontal direction.

The light-beam generator includes an optical element and a light-emitting diode, wherein the optical element further includes a non-spherical reflecting curved surface which at least has a focus.

By such arrangement, an output efficiency of light beams can be improved and a heat dissipation requirement can be reduced. Additionally, the light-beam generator proposed in the present invention can be applied to a projecting system having illuminant with specific polarized directions, so as to eliminate various prior-art drawbacks.

Abstract: A projector employing multiple organic electroluminescence (OEL) image panels, in which each image panel is made with multiple light-emitting OEL components. Each light-emitting OEL component represents one image element. The OEL component is capable of emitting individual prime colors, red (R), green (G) or blue (B), or producing white light which is then made to passes through color filters to produce RGB colors. The new structure for the projector provides the features of downsized dimensions, luminous efficiency and light-focusing capability.
