Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, since the conventional second harmonic light generator described in Patent Document 1 does not narrow the frequency band of the laser light, there is a problem that the excitation wavelength of the semiconductor laser light source fluctuates due to temperature changes, or the excitation wavelength of the semiconductor laser light source varies with the wavelength. The permissib...

Abstract

The invention provides a laser source device which can well projects the laser with a low cost and a miniaturization and a projector with the laser source. The laser source device has: a laser source to actuate the laser with a predetermined wavelength and a laser conversion element to convert the laser wavelength projected from the laser source and project the converted laser. The wavelength conversion element has a band-pass filter multilayer film at the incident face, which makes the laser with an actuated wavelength projected from the laser source transmit selectively and a dielectric multilayer film at the emission face which makes the laser with the converted wavelength transmit and reflect the laser with the actuated wavelength. The laser whose wavelength is actuated in the band-pass filter multilayer is made into a narrow frequency. The laser with the narrow frequency is converted into a laser with a converted wavelength by a wavelength conversion element. The converted laser emits from the laser source device.
