Abstract: A polarization converter for use in a projector apparatus is provided. The polarization converter includes a polarizing beam splitter, a half wavelength retarder and a quarter wavelength retarder. The polarizing beam splitter could split a first light into a first light beam with a first polarized direction and a second light beam with a second polarized direction. The half wavelength retarder is disposed on the side of the polarizing beam splitter and the second light beam is converted into the second light beam with the first polarized direction by the half wavelength retarder. The first and second light beams with the first polarized direction are coupled to form a first polarized light with the first polarized direction. The quarter wavelength retarder is disposed behind the half wavelength retarder so that the first polarized light is converted into a first circularly polarized light.
