Lighting device and projection display apparatus
View Patent ↗A lighting device of the present disclosure includes: an excitation light source; a phosphor for receiving an excitation light from the excitation light source and emitting a fluorescent light; a spreader for supporting the phosphor; and a reflective layer disposed between the phosphor and the spreader and reflecting the fluorescent light. The phosphor is a plurality of phosphor pieces disposed to be adjacent to each other and having the same characteristic.
1. A projection display apparatus comprising: a lighting device including: an excitation light source; a phosphor configured to receive an excitation light from the excitation light source and emit a fluorescent light; a spreader configured to support the phosphor; and a reflective layer disposed between the phosphor and the spreader, and configured to reflect the fluorescent light, wherein the phosphor is a plurality of phosphor pieces disposed to be adjacent to each other and having same characteristic, the spreader has a disk shape, the plurality of phosphor pieces are disposed in a circumferential direction of the spreader so as to form an annular shape, and a motor is disposed in a center of the spreader so that the spreader can rotate; a detector configured to detect a rotation position of a butted portion disposed between the plurality of phosphor pieces adjacent to each other; an image display element configured to modulate a light outgoing from the lighting device in response to an image signal, and to generate an image light; and a projection lens configured to enlarge and project the image light generated by the image display element, wherein, based on the rotation position of the butted portion detected by the detector, at a timing at which the excitation light arrives at the butted portion, an output of image display is changed to suppress luminance change of the image light.
2. A projection display apparatus comprising: a lighting device including; an excitation light source; a phosphor configured to receive an excitation light from the excitation light source and emit a fluorescent light; a spreader configured to support the phosphor; and a reflective layer disposed between the phosphor and the spreader, and configured to reflect the fluorescent light, wherein the phosphor is a plurality of phosphor pieces disposed to be adjacent to each other and having same characteristic, the spreader has a disk shape, the plurality of phosphor pieces are disposed in a circumferential direction of the spreader so as to form an annular shape, and a motor is disposed in a center of the spreader so that the spreader can rotate; a detector configured to detect a rotation position of a butted portion disposed between the plurality of phosphor pieces adjacent to each other; an image display element configured to modulate a light outgoing from the lighting device in response to an image signal, and to generate an image light; and a projection lens configured to enlarge and project the image light generated by the image display element, wherein the lighting device includes a plurality of the spreaders, and wherein, based on the rotation position of the butted portion detected by the detector, a timing at which the excitation light arrives at the butted portion of the phosphor is controlled so as to change between the plurality of spreaders.
