[0032] The technical terms in this specification refer to the customary terms in the technical field. If some terms are explained or defined in this specification, the interpretation of these terms shall be based on the explanation or definition in this specification. Each embodiment of the present invention has one or more technical features. Under the premise of possible implementation, a person with ordinary knowledge in the technical field can selectively implement some or all of the technical features in any embodiment, or selectively combine some or all of the technical features in these embodiments.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a light source module 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The light source module 100 can be applied to a device requiring a light source, such as a projector, an illuminator, a display or other types of devices. For application in a projection device, the light source module 100 can also be called a light combining module.
[0034] The light source module 100 includes a first light source 110 , a first wavelength conversion unit 120 , a first light splitting unit 130 , a second light source 140 , a second wavelength conversion unit 150 , a second light splitting unit 160 and a reflection unit 170 .
[0035] The first light source 110 is used to emit a first light B1 having a first wavelength. The first wavelength conversion unit 120 is disposed relative to the first light source 110, and is used to convert at least a portion of the first light B1 into a first converted light G1 having a second wavelength, which is different from the first wavelength. The second light splitting unit 160 is disposed relative to the first wavelength conversion unit 120, and is used to allow one of the first wavelength and the second wavelength to pass through, while reflecting the other. The second light source 140 is disposed relative to the second light splitting unit 160, and is used to emit a second light B2 having a first wavelength. The second wavelength conversion unit 150 is disposed relative to the second light splitting unit 160, and is used to convert at least a portion of the second light B2 into a second converted light G2 having a second wavelength. The first light splitting unit 130 is disposed between the first wavelength conversion unit 120 and the second wavelength conversion unit 150, and is used to reflect the first wavelength and allow the second wavelength to pass through. In this embodiment, the second light splitting unit 160 is described by taking an example that allows the light having the first wavelength to be reflected, while allowing the light having the second wavelength to pass through.
[0036] As can be seen from the above, the first converted light G1 and the second converted light G2 are converted by two separate wavelength conversion units. Due to the relative relationship of these optical components of the light source module 100, a small-volume light source module 100 can be obtained. In addition, the light emitted by the light source module 100 has a mixed light of two converted lights of the second wavelength, so the light brightness can be increased.
[0037] The first wavelength is, for example, one of red light, blue light and green light, and the second wavelength is, for example, the other of red light, blue light and green light. The first wavelength and the second wavelength of the embodiment of the present invention are respectively illustrated by taking blue light and green light as examples. The first light source 110 and the second light source 140 are, for example, light emitting diodes or laser light sources. The proportion of green light to white light is about 70%. The higher the proportion of green light, the higher the brightness of white light. Since the light emitted by the light source module 100 is a mixture of two green lights (the first converted light G1 and the second converted light G2), the brightness of white light downstream of the optical path can be enhanced.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, taking the optical paths of the first light B1 and the first converted light G1 as an example, the first light B1 is emitted from the first light source 110, and is converted into the first converted light G1 after passing through the first wavelength conversion unit 120; the first converted light G1 passes through the first light splitting unit 130, the second wavelength conversion unit 150, and the second light splitting unit 160 in sequence, and is emitted from the second light splitting unit 160. After passing through the second light splitting unit 160, the first converted light G1 is incident on the module 10, such as the lighting module or the imaging module.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, in the optical path of the second light B2 and the second converted light G2, the second light B2 is emitted from the second light source 140, reflected by the second light splitting unit 160 to the second wavelength conversion unit 150, and converted into the second converted light G2 by the second wavelength conversion unit 150; the second converted light G2 passes through the first light splitting unit 130, the first wavelength conversion unit 120, the first light source 110, the reflection unit 170, the first wavelength conversion unit 120, the first light splitting unit 130, the second wavelength conversion unit 150 and the second light splitting unit 160 in sequence, and is emitted from the second light splitting unit 160. The second converted light G2 penetrates the second light splitting unit 160 and is incident on the module 10.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the first light source 110 has a light emitting surface 110u and a back surface 110b opposite to each other, and the first light B1 is emitted from the light emitting surface 110u. The reflection unit 170 is disposed on the back surface 110b and is used to reflect the first light B1 and the second converted light G2.
[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the first light source 110 and the second light source 140 are respectively located at two opposite sides of the first light splitting unit 130 , so that the first light B1 emitted by the first light source 110 and the second light B2 emitted by the second light source 140 are respectively incident on two opposite sides of the first light splitting unit 130 .
[0042] like Figure 1As shown, two adjacent ones of the first light source 110, the first wavelength conversion unit 120, the first light splitting unit 130, the second wavelength conversion unit 150 and the reflection unit 170 are in contact with each other, which can reduce light loss. In addition, in terms of relative positions, the reflection unit 170, the first light source 110, the first wavelength conversion unit 120, the first light splitting unit 130, the second wavelength conversion unit 150 and the second light splitting unit 160 are arranged in sequence from the first light source 110 to the second light splitting unit 160 (e.g., along a straight line).
[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, the first wavelength conversion unit 120 has a first surface 120i and a third surface 120e opposite to each other, and the second wavelength conversion unit 150 has a second surface 150i and a fourth surface 150e opposite to each other, and the third surface 120e and the fourth surface 150e are respectively located at two opposite sides of the first light splitting unit 130. The first light B1 is incident into the first wavelength conversion unit 120 through the first surface 120i, and is converted into the first converted light G1 by the first wavelength conversion unit 120, and the second light B2 is incident into the second wavelength conversion unit 150 through the second surface 150i, and is converted into the second converted light G2 by the second wavelength conversion unit 150. In summary, the first light B1 and the second light B2 are respectively incident into the two separate wavelength conversion units, and the first converted light G1 and the second converted light G2 are respectively converted by the two separate wavelength conversion units.
[0044] The first wavelength conversion unit 120 and the second wavelength conversion unit 150 are conversion units with the same wavelength conversion characteristics. Figure 1 As shown, the first wavelength conversion unit 120 includes a plurality of fluorescent particles 121, which can excite light to convert the wavelength of the light. For example, the first wavelength conversion unit 120 converts the first light B1 having a first wavelength into the first converted light G1 having a second wavelength. The second wavelength conversion unit 150 includes a plurality of fluorescent particles 151, which can excite light to convert the wavelength of the light. For example, the second wavelength conversion unit 150 converts the second light B2 having a first wavelength into the second converted light G2 having a second wavelength.
[0045] like Figure 1As shown, the thickness T1 of the first wavelength conversion unit 120 is greater than the thickness T2 of the second wavelength conversion unit 150. In one embodiment, the thickness T1 is, for example, 1.1 to 3 times the thickness T2, and may be larger or smaller. In terms of specific dimensions, the thickness T1 is, for example, between 0.15 millimeters (mm) and 0.3 mm, and the thickness T2 is, for example, between 0.1 mm and 0.25 mm. Since the first wavelength conversion unit 120 has a certain thickness, the path length of the first light B1' reflected back and forth between the first light splitting unit 130 and the reflection unit 170 can be increased to increase the probability or efficiency of converting the first light B1' into the first converted light G1.
[0046] The first light splitting unit 130 is, for example, a dichroic mirror. Figure 1 As shown, the first light B1 and the second light B2 are blocked by the first light splitting unit 130 and cannot penetrate the first light splitting unit 130. The first light splitting unit 130 can reflect the first light B1 and the second light B2 having the first wavelength back to the first wavelength conversion unit 120 and the second wavelength conversion unit 150, respectively, and allow the first converted light G1 having the second wavelength and the second converted light G2 having the third wavelength to penetrate.
[0047] For example, Figure 1 As shown, since the first light splitter unit 130 allows the first wavelength to be reflected, the first light B1 with the first wavelength (not converted by the first wavelength conversion unit 120) is reflected by the first light splitter unit 130 back to the first wavelength conversion unit 120 (referred to as the first light B1'), so as to increase the probability or efficiency of the first light B1' being converted into the first converted light G1. The reflected first light B1' is incident on the reflection unit 170 and then reflected back to the first wavelength conversion unit 120, so as to increase the probability or efficiency of the first light B1' being converted into the first converted light G1. In addition, the first light source 110 and the first wavelength conversion unit 120 are disposed between the reflection unit 170 and the first light splitter unit 130, so that the first light B1' can be reflected back and forth between the first light splitter unit 130 and the reflection unit 170, so as to increase the probability or efficiency of the first light B1' being converted into the first converted light G1.
[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, the second light B2 with the first wavelength is reflected by the first beam splitter unit 130 back to the second wavelength conversion unit 150 (referred to as the second light B2”). The second light B2” penetrates the second wavelength conversion unit 150 and is incident on the second beam splitter unit 160, and is reflected from the second beam splitter unit 160 out of the light source module 100 or is processed by the light source module 100 separately. The light amount of the second light B2” accounts for less than a preset proportion of the light amount of the second light B2, so the light loss caused by the second light B2 is very small. The aforementioned preset proportion is, for example, equal to or less than 5%.
[0049] The second light splitting unit 160 is, for example, a dichroic light splitter. Figure 1 As shown, the configuration angle of the second light splitting unit 160 (e.g., relative to the optical axis direction of the second light B2, or relative to the optical axis direction of the converted light) is, for example, 45 degrees, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. In addition, the first light source 110, the first wavelength conversion unit 120, the first light splitting unit 130, the second light source 140, the second wavelength conversion unit 150 and the reflection unit 170 are located on the same side of the second light splitting unit 160, so the second light B2, the first converted light G1 and the second converted light G2 can be incident on the same surface of the second light splitting unit 160.
[0050] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 Schematic diagram of a light source module 200 according to another embodiment of the present invention. The light source module 200 includes a first light source 110, a first wavelength conversion unit 120, a first light splitting unit 130, a second light source 140, a second wavelength conversion unit 150, a second light splitting unit 160, a reflection unit 170, a third light source 210, a fourth light source 220, and a third light splitting unit 260. The light source module 200 according to the embodiment of the present invention has technical features similar to or the same as those of the aforementioned light source module 100, except that the light source module 200 further includes a third light source 210 and a fourth light source 220. The third light source 210 and the fourth light source 220 are, for example, light emitting diodes or laser light sources. The third light splitting unit 260 is, for example, a dichroic beam splitter.
[0051] The third light source 210 is arranged relative to the second light splitting unit 160 to emit a third light B3 having a first wavelength. The second light splitting unit 160 is used to allow light having a first wavelength (e.g., the second light B2 and the third light B3) to be reflected and allow light having a second wavelength (e.g., the first converted light G1 and the second converted light G2) to be transmitted. After the third light B3 is reflected from the second light splitting unit 160, it transmits through the third light splitting unit 260 and then enters the module 10. In this way, the first converted light G1, the second converted light G2, and the third light B3 of different light colors are transmitted through the second light splitting unit 160 and enter the module 10, so that the light source module 200 provides more color-changing light.
[0052] like Figure 2 As shown, the fourth light source 220 is used to emit a fourth light R1 having a third wavelength, wherein the third wavelength, the second wavelength and the first wavelength are different. In this embodiment, the first wavelength is, for example, one of red light, blue light and green light, the second wavelength is, for example, the other of red light, blue light and green light, and the third wavelength is, for example, the other of red light, blue light and green light. The first wavelength, the second wavelength and the third wavelength of the embodiment of the present invention are respectively described by taking blue light, green light and red light as examples.
[0053] The third light splitting unit 260 is arranged relative to the second light splitting unit 160 and is used to allow light with a first wavelength (e.g., the third light B3) to pass through, light with a second wavelength (e.g., the first converted light G1 and the second converted light G2) to pass through, and light with a third wavelength (e.g., the fourth light R1) to reflect. The fourth light R1 is reflected from the third light splitting unit 260 and then incident on the module 10. In this way, the first converted light G1, the second converted light G2, the third light B3, and the fourth light R1 of different light colors pass through the third light splitting unit 260 and are incident on the module 10, so that the light source module 200 provides more color-changing light.
[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, the third light source 210 and the second light source 140 are respectively located at two opposite sides of the second light splitting unit 160 , so that the third light B3 emitted by the third light source 210 and the second light B2 emitted by the second light source 140 are respectively reflected in two opposite directions to the module 10 and the second wavelength conversion unit 150 .
[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, the third beam splitter unit 260 and the second wavelength conversion unit 150 are respectively located on opposite sides of the second beam splitter unit 160, so that the first converted light G1, the second converted light G2 and the third light B3 transmitted through the second beam splitter unit 160 can be incident on the third beam splitter unit 260 along a straight optical path, that is, there is no need to configure an optical component for changing the direction of the light between the third beam splitter unit 260 and the second beam splitter unit 160.
[0056] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, Figure 2 FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a light source module 300 according to another embodiment of the present invention. The light source module 300 includes a first light source 110, a first wavelength conversion unit 120, a first beam splitter unit 130, a second light source 140, a second wavelength conversion unit 150, a second beam splitter unit 360, and a reflection unit 170. The light source module 300 according to the embodiment of the present invention has technical features similar to or the same as those of the aforementioned light source module 100, except that the beam splitting characteristics of the second beam splitter unit 360 of the light source module 300 are different from those of the second beam splitter unit 160. The second beam splitter unit 360 is, for example, a dichroic beam splitter.
[0057] In this embodiment, the second light splitting unit 360 allows the light with the first wavelength (eg, the second light B2 ) to pass through, and allows the light with the second wavelength (eg, the first converted light G1 and the second converted light G2 ) to be reflected.
[0058] like Figure 3As shown, in the optical path of the first light B1 and the first converted light G1, the first light B1 is emitted from the first light source 110 and converted into the first converted light G1 by the first wavelength conversion unit 120; the first converted light G1 passes through the first light splitting unit 130, the second wavelength conversion unit 150 and the second light splitting unit 360 in sequence, and is reflected by the second light splitting unit 160 to the module 10.
[0059] like Figure 3 As shown, in the optical path of the second light B2 and the second converted light G2, the second light B2 is emitted from the second light source 140, and is incident on the second wavelength conversion unit 150 after passing through the second light splitting unit 360, and is converted into the second converted light G2 by the second wavelength conversion unit 150; the second converted light G2 passes through the first light splitting unit 130, the first wavelength conversion unit 120, the first light source 110, the reflection unit 170, the first wavelength conversion unit 120, the first light splitting unit 130, the second wavelength conversion unit 150 and the second light splitting unit 360 in sequence, and is reflected by the second light splitting unit 360 to the module 10.
[0060] like Figure 3 As shown, the first wavelength conversion unit 120 and the second light source 140 are respectively located on opposite sides of the second light splitting unit 360, so the second light B2 emitted by the second light source 140 and the converted light (first converted light G1 and second converted light G2) converted by the wavelength conversion unit are respectively incident on opposite sides of the second light splitting unit 360.
[0061] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 Schematic diagram of a light source module 400 according to another embodiment of the present invention. The light source module 400 includes a first light source 110, a first wavelength conversion unit 120, a first light splitting unit 130, a second light source 140, a second wavelength conversion unit 150, a second light splitting unit 360, a reflection unit 170, a third light source 210, a fourth light source 220, and a third light splitting unit 260. The light source module 400 according to the embodiment of the present invention has technical features similar to or the same as those of the aforementioned light source module 300, except that the light source module 400 further includes a third light source 210, a fourth light source 220, and a third light splitting unit 260.
[0062] like Figure 4As shown, the third light source 210 is arranged relative to the second light splitting unit 160 to emit a third light B3 having a first wavelength. The second light splitting unit 360 allows light having a first wavelength (e.g., the second light B2 and the third light B3) to pass through and allows light having a second wavelength (e.g., the first converted light G1 and the second converted light G2) to be reflected. The third light B3 emitted from the third light source 210 sequentially passes through the second light splitting unit 160 and the third light splitting unit 260 and then enters the module 10. In this way, the first converted light G1, the second converted light G2, and the third light B3 of different light colors can pass through the second light splitting unit 360 and enter the module 10, so that the light source module 400 provides more color-changing light.
[0063] like Figure 4 As shown, the fourth light source 220 is used to emit a fourth light R1 having a third wavelength, wherein the third wavelength, the second wavelength and the first wavelength are different. In this embodiment, the first wavelength is, for example, one of red light, blue light and green light, the second wavelength is, for example, the other of red light, blue light and green light, and the third wavelength is, for example, the other of red light, blue light and green light. The first wavelength, the second wavelength and the third wavelength of the embodiment of the present invention are respectively described by taking blue light, green light and red light as examples.
[0064] like Figure 4 As shown, the third light splitting unit 260 is arranged relative to the second light splitting unit 360 and is used to allow light with a first wavelength (e.g., the third light B3) to pass through, light with a second wavelength (e.g., the first converted light G1 and the second converted light G2) to pass through, and light with a third wavelength (e.g., the fourth light R1) to reflect. After the fourth light R1 is reflected from the third light splitting unit 260, it is incident on the module 10.
