Projection display apparatus

1. A projection display apparatus comprising:

a laser light source which emits a blue light;

a wheel which includes a light emitting body provided on a reflection surface of a substrate, the light emitting body emitting an emission light when the emitting body is irradiated with the blue light;

a bandpass filter which is disposed on an optical path on which the emission light of the light emitting body travels;

a plurality of optical modulating elements which modulate the blue light and the emission light from the light emitting body;

a projection unit which projects the light modulated by the plurality of optical modulating elements; and

a combining optical element which combines the emission light and the blue light to emit a combined light,

wherein the bandpass filter allows transmission of part of lights whose wavelength bands are 560 nm to 590 nm in the emission light of the light emitting body, and reflects other lights and is disposed on the optical path on which an emission light from the combining optical element travels.

2. The projection display apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a split optical unit including two dichroic mirrors which split the blue light and the emission light from the light emitting body into a red image light, a green image light and a blue image light.

3. The projection display apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein a wavelength in which a transmittance in a transmission wavelength band of the bandpass filter is maximized is shorter than a cutoff wavelength at which transmittance is 50% of a dichroic mirror surface, which splits the red image light and the green image light, of the split optical unit.

4. The projection display apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein a dominant wavelength of the blue image light falls within a range from 460 nm to 470 nm.

5. The projection display apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein a half-maximum wavelength of short wavelength side in an emission spectrum of the light emitting body is shorter than a cutoff wavelength at which transmittance is 50% of a dichroic mirror surface, which splits the green light and the blue light, of the split optical unit.

6. The projection display apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein a dominant wavelength of the laser light source is 460 nm or shorter.
