The color-synthetic optical system can include a first reflection film that reflects the green light, and a second reflection film that reflects the blue light, the first reflection film and the second reflection film are arranged in the shape of an X character, and a wavelength in which a reflectance factor of the first reflection film comes to 50% can be longer than a wavelength in which a reflectance factor of the second reflection film comes to 50%.

Abstract: A projector includes an illumination device, a color separation system, a light combining system, a projection system, and an optical adjustment portion. The color separation system separates the light emitted from the illumination device into blue light, red light, and green light. The light combining system can have a first dichroic filter reflecting one of blue light or red light, and a second dichroic filter reflecting green light which are placed in a crossed state and can combine image lights of respective colors exiting from the first through third light modulation devices. The projection system can project a combined light exiting from the light combining system while correcting chromatic aberrations of magnification of blue light and red light with respect to green light. The optical adjustment portion can adjust a size of an image light corresponding to the green light of the combined light exiting from the light combining system.

Abstract: To provide a thin projector, such as a rear projector, formed by a less expensive projection optical system which is easy to assemble and install, and performing a highly accurate projection, projection light PL projected with a projection optical system onto a screen is linearly polarized light having a polarization azimuth along the longitudinal direction of the screen. With this arrangement, the right and left ends of the rear surface of the screen maintain a low reflectance, thereby reducing a loss in quantity of illumination light when passing through the screen, in other words, achieving high luminance of an image projected onto the screen while maintaining its uniformity of brightness.

Abstract: To provide a projector that hardly causes deterioration of an image resulted from stray light. A neutral density filter, of which posture can be fine-adjusted by a posture regulating mechanism, is placed in a space between a second dichroic mirror and a liquid crystal light valve. Thus, it is possible to remove stray light, corresponding to condensed light resulted from multi-pass through a field lens or the like, to the outside of a light path by merely tilting the neutral density filter adequately. It is thus possible to project an image having homogeneous brightness (illuminance at the white level) across the entire screen, which in turn makes it possible to project an image having no irregularities in color across the entire screen.
