  • Patent number: 9726606
    Abstract: A detection device comprises a chip holder, a light source, a light-guide rod, a wavelength separation filter, and an optical sensor. Given the relationship between the angle of incidence and light intensity of fluorescence on a light reception surface of the optical sensor, the optical transmittance of the wavelength separation filter at the dominant wavelength of the rays of fluorescence incident on the light reception surface at a peak angle of incidence at which the light intensity is the highest is greater than the optical transmittance of the wavelength separation filter at the dominant wavelength of the rays of excitation light incident on the light reception surface at the peak angle of incidence and is higher than the optical transmittance of the wavelength separation filter at the dominant wavelength of the rays of fluorescence incident on the light reception surface at an angle of incidence of 0 DEG.

  • Patent number: 7450286
    Abstract: A laser projection apparatus includes: laser devices; incident optical systems, each of which is supplied with light beam from the laser device; a scanning device for two-dimensionally scanning the light beam; and a projection optical system for projecting the light beam from the scanning device onto a screen; wherein the scanning device includes a resonant drive mirror for performing deflection in a main scanning direction, and the projection optical system includes at least two nonaxisymmetric-shaped reflecting mirrors and a light source image is present between the first mirror, which is most closest to the scanning device, and the second mirror, thereby achieving a laser projection apparatus using a projection optical system which is easy to downsize, has velocity uniformity and has successful projection characteristics and brightness.
