Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of display technologies, and particularly to a light source module and a projection display device. Background Art

[0002] The imaging principle of fiber optic scanning imaging technology is that light corresponding to each pixel of the image to be displayed is modulated by a light source, and then, driven by a scanner, the scanning optical fiber moves at a high frequency to scan and output the light corresponding to each pixel, so as to project the light corresponding to each pixel of the image to be displayed onto a projection screen one by one to form a projection image. Since a laser light source has advantages such as good monochromaticity, high brightness, and wide color gamut, it can be used as the light source for fiber optic scanning imaging technology.

[0003] In fiber optic scanning imaging technology, partial abnormalities in the displayed image mainly come from the non-steady driving (high-frequency modulation driving) of the laser light source itself, echoes in the backend link, and instability in the transmission link (fiber mode perturbation). In the actual product development by researchers, it is found that the factor that has the greatest impact on the stability of the displayed image and the imaging quality is the echo from the link, including but not limited to abnormal scattering of optical elements, primary or multiple reflections at interfaces, and backscattering of optical fibers.

The output direction of the reflected image light beam is parallel and opposite to the output direction of the image light beam combined by the polarization beam combiner. The reflected image light beam is coupled into the pigtail through the coupling lens.

[0007] In some embodiments, the polarization beam combiner is a cube prism, and the angle between the light beam incident on the polarization beam combiner and the incident surface of the polarization beam combiner is in the range of 80° - 89°.

[0008] In some embodiments, the polarization beam combiner includes a polarization beam splitting film, and the angle between the light beam passing through the polarization beam splitting film and the output surface of the polarization beam combiner is in the range of 80° - 89°.

[0011] In some embodiments, the light source module includes a base configured to carry the light source, the wavelength combining device, and the polarization beam combiner. There is an angle between the inner surface of the base corresponding to the polarization beam combiner and the image light beam combined by the polarization beam combiner.

[0031] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the relevant utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. In addition, it should be noted that for the convenience of description, only the parts related to the relevant utility model are shown in the drawings.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of the fiber optic scanning imaging system provided by an embodiment of the present utility model. The fiber optic scanning imaging system mainly includes: a processor, a scanning drive circuit, a light source module, a light source modulation module, a fiber optic scanner 11, a light source beam combining module 12, and a fiber optic 13. The working principle of the fiber optic scanning imaging system is as follows: The processor drives the fiber optic scanner 11 by sending an electrical control signal to the scanning drive circuit. At the same time, the processor controls the light output of the light source module by sending an electrical control signal to the light source modulation module. Among them, the signal transmission between the processor, the scanning drive circuit, and the light source modulation module can be carried out through an electronic input / output device. The light source modulation module outputs a light source modulation signal according to the received control signal to modulate multiple color light emitting units in the light source module (such as: lasers / light emitting diodes, etc., Figure 1As shown in the figure, there are red, green, and blue RGB lasers for modulation. The light generated by the light-emitting units of each color in the light source module is combined by the light source beam combining module 12 and then generates the light corresponding to each pixel point in the image one by one. The light beam generated by the light source beam combining module 12 is introduced into the fiber optic scanner 11 through the optical fiber 13. At the same time, the scanning drive circuit outputs a scanning drive signal according to the received control signal to control the optical fiber 13 in the fiber optic scanner 11 to perform a scanning motion along a predetermined two-dimensional scanning trajectory (such as: spiral scanning, raster scanning, Lissajous scanning). Then, the optical system amplifies the light of each pixel point emitted from the optical fiber 13 and projects it onto the projection surface to form an image. Among them, the projection surface can be a projection screen, a wall, etc.

[0033] The semiconductor laser (LD) realizes the output of a specific wavelength through the resonant cavity. Its structural characteristics and the principle of laser generation determine that the stability of the output power of the LD itself is affected by many factors such as temperature, internal refractive index distribution, and injection current change. At the same time, external emission, stray light, etc. are reversely transmitted into the laser, which will also greatly cause the instability of the laser power, making the output light intensity of the laser and even the laser wavelength deviate from the target value.

[0034] When the laser is used as an RGB LD for imaging display, especially in the laser imaging method mainly based on pixel-by-pixel and internal modulation represented by fiber optic scanning, by precisely modulating the injection current of the RGB laser, the three-way RGB lasers can achieve accurate color display and grayscale display with accurate ratios after passing through the optical system link. If the laser is affected by the stray light and the injection of back-reflected echoes as mentioned above, resulting in deviations in the output wavelength and power of the laser, it will be very sensitive to reflect on the accuracy of the displayed image, causing phenomena such as inaccurate color display and abnormal brightness display; coupled with the characteristics of the system link energy utilization rate changing with time caused by various factors such as high-frequency scanning bending of the optical fiber, lens mode matching, and fiber modal dispersion, the final imaging picture quality shows serious color cast, reduced color gamut, uneven brightness, etc. These phenomena change with time, and the entire projection screen looks "dirty" and unclear. In addition, there are many specific phenomena different from traditional displays in the laser-based scanning projection technology, such as unstable grayscale display affecting expressiveness and weak display anti-interference ability.

[0035] Therefore, to achieve an accurate and clean laser display picture, it is necessary to make the output of the laser itself more controllable and stable. Considering the characteristics of the comprehensive system structure and the optical link, this case proposes a suitable light source module solution to solve this key problem and improve the display effect of fiber optic scanning imaging. This specification will specifically describe the light source module in combination with the following embodiments.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 2A and Figure 2B , Figure 2A andFigure 2B This is a schematic structural diagram of a light source module provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The light source structure includes a laser light source (also known as an optical module); a coupling lens 21 disposed on the outgoing light path of the laser light source, and an aperture stop 23 is disposed on the incident light side and / or the outgoing light side of the coupling lens 21; a pigtail 24 is disposed on the outgoing light path of the coupling lens 21, and the light emitted by the laser light source is coupled into the pigtail 24 through the coupling lens 21; the fiber coupling end face 240 of the pigtail 24 is an inclined end face, so that the reflected light of the fiber coupling end face 240 is reflected deviating from the optical axis, thereby reducing the proportion of the reflected echo generated at the fiber coupling end face 240 from entering the semiconductor laser of the laser light source, reducing the influence of the reflected echo generated at the fiber coupling end face 240 on the semiconductor laser, and ensuring the stable output of the semiconductor laser.

[0037] In the solution of the embodiment of the present invention, since the fiber coupling end face 240 of the pigtail 24 is inclined, the reflected light of the fiber coupling end face 240 can be reflected deviating from the optical axis, thereby reducing the reflected light returning to the receiving surface of the semiconductor laser along the original optical axis; moreover, an aperture stop 23 is disposed on the incident light side and / or the outgoing light side of the fiber coupling lens 21, which can intercept the stray light in the light source system, thereby reducing the stray light returning to the receiving surface of the semiconductor laser resonator through the fiber coupling lens 21. By the cooperation of the inclined fiber end face and the aperture stop 23, the influence of the echo and the stray light on the semiconductor laser is reduced, making the output of the semiconductor laser itself more stable and controllable.

[0038] In order to further reduce the interference of the echo generated at the fiber coupling end face 240 on the semiconductor laser to ensure the image display quality, in some embodiments of this specification, the pigtail 24 uses a single-mode fiber. Preferably, the single-mode fiber can be an RGB full-band single-mode fiber. Specifically, the visual perception of red light is stronger than that of blue light, and for the red light semiconductor laser compared with the blue light and green light semiconductor lasers, the red light semiconductor laser is more sensitive to the reflected echo. Therefore, the fiber used in the embodiments of this specification is at least a single-mode fiber for the red light wavelength.

[0039] Furthermore, different tilt angles of the optical fiber coupling end face 240 of the pigtail fiber 24 will affect the reflection angle of the reflected echo generated at the optical fiber coupling end face 240, thereby changing the proportion of the reflected echo returning along the original path and entering the semiconductor laser, and further affecting the image display effect of the fiber optic scanning imaging. Specifically, the larger the tilt angle of the optical fiber coupling end face 240, the more deviated the direction of the reflected echo from the optical axis, the smaller the proportion of the reflected echo entering the semiconductor laser, and the better the image display effect of the fiber optic scanning imaging. It should be noted that in the embodiments of this specification, the tilt angle θ of the optical fiber coupling end face 240 refers to the angle between the plane where the optical fiber coupling end face is located and the direction perpendicular to the main optical axis of the coupling lens. The following will specifically describe the display image quality of the optical fiber coupling end face at different tilt angles.

[0040] When a single-mode fiber is used and the tilt angle of the optical fiber coupling end face is 8°, there are slight fish-scale-like speckle defects in a local area of the fiber optic scanning display imaging diagram; the display picture defect of the optical fiber coupling end face with a larger tilt angle of 9° is significantly less obvious compared to the tilt angle of the optical fiber coupling end face of 8°, and only defects similar to noise can be seen; when the tilt angle is further increased to 11°, the display picture is pure and almost no display defects can be seen. Thus, it can be seen that as a display application, when the tilt angle of the optical fiber coupling end face is above 8° (for example, 9°, 11°), no obvious difference can be seen.

[0041] Based on the above content, the pigtail fiber of the light source module provided in the embodiments of this specification uses a single-mode fiber. Among them, when the value of the tilt angle of the optical fiber coupling end face is greater than 8°, even if the optical fiber coupling end face is not coated, high image quality can be ensured during its application in the imaging of fiber optic scanning display technology.

[0042] In some embodiments, an antireflection film can also be coated on the optical fiber coupling end face to reduce the reflected echo generated at the optical fiber coupling end face, so that the proportion of the reflected echo entering the semiconductor laser is small, and further ensure the image display effect of the fiber optic scanning imaging. Furthermore, when an antireflection film is coated on the optical fiber coupling end face, the tilt angle of the optical fiber coupling end face can be relatively small. Based on this, the embodiments of this specification also provide another light source module, which is relative Figure 2A 、 Figure 2B The main difference from its corresponding content is that the pigtail fiber is a single-mode fiber, the tilt angle of the optical fiber coupling end face is not less than 5°, and an antireflection film is coated on the optical fiber coupling end face.

[0043] When using a single-mode optical fiber, with the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face being 5° and the normal incidence reflectivity of the anti-reflection film for red light being 1%, the display screen is pure and almost no display defects can be seen; when using a single-mode optical fiber, with the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face being 5° and the normal incidence reflectivity of the anti-reflection film for red light being 1.5%, there are a few stripe defects in local areas of the display screen, but they are not obvious; when using a single-mode optical fiber, with the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face being 3° and the normal incidence reflectivity of the anti-reflection film for red light being 1.5%, there are many dense stripe defects in most areas of the display screen, and they are even more obvious in areas with lower brightness. Thus, it can be seen that the smaller the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face and the larger the normal incidence reflectivity of the anti-reflection film for red light, the larger the proportion of the reflected echo generated at the fiber coupling end face entering the semiconductor laser, and the more serious the corresponding image defects.

[0044] Based on the above content, the pigtail of the light source module provided in the embodiments of this specification uses a single-mode optical fiber. Among them, the value of the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is not less than 5° and the normal incidence reflectivity of the anti-reflection film for red light is not greater than 1.5%, and the normal incidence reflectivities of the anti-reflection film for blue and green lights are not greater than 2%. The proportion of the reflected echo generated at the fiber coupling end face entering the semiconductor laser is small, and the imaging quality of the fiber scanning display technology is high. Further preferably, in order to further improve the imaging quality, the value of the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is not less than 5° and the normal incidence reflectivity of the anti-reflection film for red light is not greater than 1%, and the normal incidence reflectivities of the anti-reflection film for blue and green lights are not greater than 1.5%. The normal incidence in the embodiments of this specification means that the direction of the light entering the fiber coupling end face is perpendicular to the plane where the fiber coupling end face is located.

[0045] It should be noted that, on the one hand, the visual perception of red light (with a wavelength near 635 nm) and green light (with a wavelength near 520 nm) is relatively stronger than that of blue light (with a wavelength near 450 nm). The embodiments provided in this specification mainly focus on the display examples of red and green lights; on the other hand, the red light semiconductor laser is more sensitive to the reflected echo than the green and blue light semiconductor lasers and is more easily interfered by the reflected echo. Based on this, when designing the anti-reflection film, it is necessary to consider reducing more reflected echoes of red light. The requirement for the normal incidence reflectivity of the anti-reflection film for red light is about 0.5% lower than that of blue and green lights. In the embodiments of this specification, red or green light is used as a specific example. Although the normal incidence reflectivities of other color lights of some anti-reflection films are not given, they can be deduced accordingly, and will not be elaborated in other content about the normal incidence reflectivity in this specification.

[0046] In the above embodiments, the pigtail uses a single-mode optical fiber. In some embodiments, the pigtail can also use a multimode optical fiber. The multimode optical fiber and the single-mode optical fiber involved in the specification of this application are both for light in the visible wavelength band of 400nm - 700nm. Specifically, the multimode optical fiber in the specification of this application uses a mature commercial communication optical fiber, that is, a communication single-mode optical fiber, with a core diameter of 9μm; the single-mode optical fiber is a special single-mode optical fiber designed for the visible light band (for example, S405-XP of Nufern). When the pigtail uses a multimode optical fiber, the settings of parameters such as the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face and the normal reflectance of the antireflection film will also be different from when the pigtail is a single-mode optical fiber. Based on this, the embodiments of this specification also provide another light source module, which is relative to Figure 2A , Figure 2B and the main difference in its corresponding content is that the pigtail is a multimode optical fiber, and the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is not less than 13°. Preferably, an antireflection film is coated on the fiber coupling end face, and the normal reflectance of the antireflection film for red light is not greater than 1%, and the normal reflectance for blue and green light is not greater than 1.5%.

[0047] When the pigtail uses a multimode optical fiber and the fiber coupling end face is a flat end face, and only an antireflection film with a normal green light reflectance of 1.5% is coated on the flat end face, the stripe defects in the collected imaging diagram are very obvious, and it is difficult to achieve a good display effect.

[0048] When using a multimode optical fiber and the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is 9° and no antireflection film is coated, most areas in the fiber-scanning display imaging diagram have obvious strip defects; as the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face increases, when using a multimode optical fiber and the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is 11° and no antireflection film is coated, the strip defects in the local area of the fiber-scanning display imaging diagram are reduced; when using a multimode optical fiber and the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is 13° and no antireflection film is coated, the strip defects in the fiber-scanning display imaging diagram are even less noticeable. When the pigtail uses a multimode optical fiber and the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is 13°, it can be used for display. Further, when the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is 14° and 15° and no antireflection film is coated on the fiber coupling end face, the corresponding imaging diagrams are relatively pure and no obvious stripe defects are seen. At the same time, when the tilt angle is greater than 13°, as the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face continues to increase, there is no obvious difference in the imaging effect. It can be seen that when the pigtail uses a multimode optical fiber, when the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is not less than 13°, the proportion of the reflected echo generated at the fiber coupling end face entering the semiconductor laser is relatively low, and the influence on the semiconductor laser is small, which can ensure high-quality fiber-scanning display imaging.

[0049] In order to reduce the reflected echo generated at the fiber coupling end face, an antireflection film can also be deposited on the fiber coupling end face of the multimode fiber. When the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is the same, the imaging effect with a normal incidence reflectivity of 1.5% of green light deposited on the fiber coupling end face is improved compared to the imaging effect without the antireflection film.

[0050] When the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is a fixed value, here taking the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face as 13° as a specific example for illustration, the normal incidence reflectivity of the green light of the antireflection film on the fiber coupling end face will affect the reflected echo generated at the fiber coupling end face and the proportion of the echo returning to the semiconductor laser along the original path, thereby affecting the image quality of the fiber scanning display imaging. Specifically, the smaller the normal incidence reflectivity of the green light of the antireflection film on the fiber coupling end face, the higher the image quality of the fiber scanning display imaging. Preferably, when the fiber coupling end face uses a multimode fiber, the tilt angle of the fiber coupling end face is not less than 13°, and the normal incidence reflectivity of the green light of the antireflection film on the fiber coupling end face is not greater than 1.5%. Correspondingly, the normal incidence reflectivity of the blue light is not greater than 1.5% and the normal incidence reflectivity of the green light is not greater than 1%.

[0051] In the foregoing light source module, the fiber coupling end face is an inclined surface. In some embodiments, the fiber coupling end face can also be a flat end face. Based on this, another light source module is also provided in the embodiments of this specification, which is relative Figure 2A 、 Figure 2B The main difference from its corresponding content is that the pigtail is a single-mode fiber, the fiber coupling end face is a flat end face, an antireflection film is deposited on the fiber coupling end face, the normal incidence reflectivity of the red light of the antireflection film is not greater than 1%, and the normal incidence reflectivities of the green light and the blue light are not greater than 1.5%. It should be noted that here the fiber coupling end face being a flat end face means that the plane where the fiber coupling end face is located is perpendicular to the principal optical axis of the coupling lens.

[0052] When using a single-mode fiber, the fiber coupling end face is a flat end face and no antireflection film is deposited, there are many dense stripes in the fiber scanning display imaging diagram, and even the areas with lower brightness are more obvious; there are no defects in the imaging diagrams when using a single-mode fiber, the fiber coupling end face is a flat end face and the normal incidence reflectivity of the antireflection film is 1%, and when using a single-mode fiber, the fiber coupling end face is a flat end face and the normal incidence reflectivity of the red light of the antireflection film is 1%. When the normal incidence reflectivity of the antireflection film in the fiber scanning display imaging diagram when using a single-mode fiber, the fiber coupling end face is a flat end face and the normal incidence reflectivity of the red light of the antireflection film is 2% is relatively large, its imaging effect is relatively close to the imaging effect without coating, and the image quality has obvious defects.

[0053] Based on the above, the pigtail of the light source module provided in the embodiments of this specification uses a single-mode optical fiber. Among them, the optical fiber coupling end face is a flat end face and the normal incidence reflectivity of the anti-reflection film is not greater than 1%, so that the proportion of the reflected echo generated by the optical fiber coupling end face entering the semiconductor laser is relatively low, so as to reduce the influence of the reflected echo on the semiconductor laser, and further improve the imaging quality of the fiber optic scanning display technology.

[0054] In the embodiments of this specification, by providing an aperture stop 23 on the light incident side and / or the light exit side of the coupling lens 21, it can be used to block the reflected echo generated at the optical fiber coupling end face, so as to further reduce the influence of the reflected echo at the optical fiber coupling end face on the semiconductor laser. There are the following three possible solutions for providing an aperture stop 23 on the light incident side and / or the light exit side of the coupling lens 21: First, an aperture stop is provided on the light incident side of the coupling lens 21; second, an aperture stop is provided on the light exit side of the coupling lens 21; third, an aperture stop is provided on the light incident side of the coupling lens 21, and at the same time, an aperture stop is provided on the light exit side of the coupling lens 21.

[0055] Referring again to Figure 2B , in some embodiments of this specification, the hole diameter of the aperture stop 231 can be greater than 1 mm and less than 2 mm. The hole diameter size of the aperture stop is relatively small, which can allow the light from the light incident side to pass through, and at the same time be used to block the reflected echo generated at the optical fiber coupling end face. Further, the inner surface of the aperture stop can also be coated with light-absorbing paint, or the inner surface of the aperture stop can be set to black to absorb the reflected echo generated at the optical fiber coupling end face.

[0056] In the embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 2A and Figure 2B shown, the light source module includes a tail handle 26. The tail handle 26 has a through hole for the pigtail 24 to pass through, and the tail handle 26 is sleeved outside the incident end of the pigtail 24 passing through the through hole. In some embodiments, when a pigtail with an inclined end face is used in the light source module, the axial direction of the tail handle 26 is not parallel to the principal optical axis of the coupling lens 21. That is to say, the tail handle 26 is inclined and installed on the housing 28. The reason for such a setting is that compared with ordinary optical fibers, using an inclined optical fiber coupling end face will cause a certain angle deviation of the optical axis of the optical fiber, resulting in light energy loss. By setting the axial direction of the tail handle 26 not parallel to the principal optical axis of the coupling lens 21 to correct the optical axis of the optical fiber, so that the optical axis of the optical fiber and the optical axis of the coupling lens 21 are on the same straight line, and further making the optical axis of the entire optical system coaxial. And, through the design of the inclined tail handle structure, while reducing the backscattered stray light, it compensates for the optical power loss caused by the angular assembly deviation in the optical path coupling and improves the brightness of the display screen. As Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, when the pigtail in the light source module has a flat end face and is coated with an antireflection film, the axial direction of the pigtail shank can be parallel to the principal optical axis of the coupling lens.

[0057] In some embodiments, stray light can also be eliminated by designing the housing corresponding to the pigtail. There are many ways to implement the stray light eliminating housing structure. Next, several examples will be described. In the specific implementation process, it is not limited to the following several implementation manners.

[0058] In one possible implementation manner, please refer to Figure 2B and Figure 4 , the light source module includes a housing 28, and a cavity 29 formed by the housing 28 between the coupling lens 21 and the fiber optic coupling end face 240; a spiral structure 281 is provided on the inner surface of the housing 28. Compared with a plane, the spiral structure 281 can increase the number of reflections of the reflected light, so that after multiple reflections, the energy distribution of the reflected light is changed, and the energy of the reflected light is attenuated.

[0059] In another possible implementation manner, as Figure 5 shown, the light source module includes a housing 28, and a cavity 29 formed by the housing 28 between the coupling lens 21 and the fiber optic coupling end face 240; a light-transmitting window 282 is provided on the housing 28, so that when the reflected light is incident on the light-transmitting window 282, it is emitted from the light-transmitting window 282 to the outside of the cavity 29. Among them, the light-transmitting window 282 can be a transparent member provided on the housing 28. The light-transmitting window 282 can be one or more carefully arranged local small areas, and its shape can be rectangular, square, circular, etc.; the light-transmitting window 282 can also be a 360° circumferential annular light-transmitting band provided along the circumference of the housing.

[0060] In some embodiments of this specification, the entire housing 28 can also be in the form of a transparent member, so that when the reflected light is incident on the housing 28, it is transmitted from the housing 28 to the outside of the cavity 29. In the specific implementation process, considering that glass has a low coefficient of thermal expansion and transparent properties, using glass as the encapsulating housing is also a feasible solution.

[0061] In another possible implementation manner, as Figure 6 shown, the light source module includes a housing 28, and a cavity 29 formed by the housing 28 between the coupling lens 21 and the fiber optic coupling end face 240; the light source module further includes an inner tube structure 30. The inner tube structure 30 is located on the side close to the coupling lens 21, and a gap 301 is formed between the housing 28 and the inner tube structure 30, so that the reflected light of the fiber optic coupling end face 240 can be reflected multiple times in the gap 301.

[0062] In another possible implementation manner, as Figure 7As shown, the light source module includes a housing 28 and a cavity 29 formed by the housing 28 and located between the coupling lens 21 and the fiber optic coupling end face 240; the inner surface 283 of the housing 28 is provided with an absorptive coating.

[0063] It should be noted that Figures 4 to 7 the shown housing can be applicable to the light source module described in the specification Figure 2A of the present invention.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 9A , which is a schematic diagram of the optical module of the light source module provided in the embodiment of the present specification. The optical module includes: an input light source, the input light source includes an image light source, the image light source includes two groups of light sources 161, 162, each group of light sources includes at least three light emitting units of R, G, and B, and the polarization states of the light beams emitted by the two groups of light sources 161, 162 are different; two wavelength combining devices 164, 165 are respectively arranged on the output light paths of the two groups of light sources 161, 162; a polarization combiner 167 is arranged on the output light paths of the two wavelength combining devices 164, 165; the light beams emitted by the two groups of light sources 161, 162 are combined into two image light beams by the corresponding wavelength combining devices; the polarization combiner 167 is coaxially arranged with one of the two wavelength combining devices 164, 165, the light beam emitted by the coaxial wavelength combining device directly enters the polarization combiner 167, the light beam emitted by the other wavelength combining device is reflected by the mirror 166 and then enters the polarization combiner 167 from the other side of the polarization combiner 167, after turning 90 degrees by the polarization combiner 167, it is emitted in the same direction as the light beam directly entering the polarization combiner 167, so that the two image light beams are combined into one image light beam after being combined by the polarization combiner 167, and the combined image light beam is coupled into the aforementioned pigtail through the coupling lens 21.

[0065] Further preferably, the optical module may further include at least one mirror, which is located behind the polarization combiner and is used to change the output direction and transmission path of the image light beam, so as to increase the distance between the inner cavity of the semiconductor laser LD and the fiber optic coupling end face, and at the same time, most of the stray light reflected at the fiber optic coupling end face is blocked by the mirror to reduce the echo ratio entering the semiconductor laser LD, thereby reducing the influence of the stray light reflected at the fiber optic coupling end face on the inner cavity of the semiconductor laser LD. In the embodiment of the present specification, two mirrors are arranged behind the polarization combiner as a specific example for illustration. Specifically, refer to Figure 8 with respect to Figure 9AThe optical module may further include a first mirror 168 and a second mirror 169. The first mirror 168 is located behind the polarization beam combiner 167, and the second mirror 169 is located on the side of the first mirror 168. The image beam after being combined by the polarization beam combiner 167 is first reflected under the action of the first mirror 168. The outgoing direction of the image beam after the first reflection is perpendicular to the outgoing direction of the image beam after being combined by the polarization beam combiner 167. The image beam after the first reflection is secondarily reflected under the action of the second mirror 169. The outgoing direction of the image beam after the second reflection is parallel and opposite to the outgoing direction of the image beam after being combined by the polarization beam combiner 167. The image beam after the second reflection is coupled into the aforementioned pigtail through the coupling lens 21. It should be noted that the number and installation positions of the mirrors are not limited to Figure 7 the way of setting two mirrors shown in. In other embodiments, the number of mirrors may also be one. For example, the mirror only includes the first mirror 168; or, the number of mirrors may also be three, four or more, as long as it can increase the transmission path of the image beam, and no further limitation is made here.

[0066] In some embodiments, the input light source may further include a detection light source 163, and the detection light source 163 may be an infrared light source. Further, the light source module may further include a detection beam combiner 169. In some embodiments, the detection light source 163 may be located on the front side of the light source 162. In other embodiments, the detection light source 163 may also be located on the optical path between the polarization beam combiner 167 and the first mirror 168. The detection beam combiner is located on the side of the detection light source. The outgoing beam of the detection light source is perpendicular to the outgoing beam of the polarization beam combiner. After the outgoing beam of the detection light source and the image beams of the other two groups of light sources are combined into one beam, they are coupled into the pigtail through the coupling lens 28.

[0067] In the solution of the embodiments of this specification, the image light source includes two groups of light sources 161 and 162. Each group of light sources includes three light-emitting units of R, G, and B. The polarization states of the beams emitted by the two groups of light sources 161 and 162 are different. Then, the light emitted by the two groups of image light sources and the detection light are combined into one beam through the wavelength beam combiners 164 and 165 and the polarization beam combiner 167, and then coupled into the pigtail, so as to improve the total power of the light source module and enable it to meet the brightness requirements of the fiber optic scanning imaging system in some high-brightness scenarios.

[0068] In some embodiments, the polarization beam combiner 167 is in the form of a cube prism and is vertically placed in the optical paths corresponding to the two groups of light sources. In the fiber optic scanning imaging display technology, when incident perpendicularly to the interface, about 2% - 3% of the reflected echo will be generated, and a considerable part will return backward to the semiconductor laser LD, resulting in relatively large defects in the finally imaged image quality. Please refer toFigure 8 and Figure 9A , based on the above problems, in the light source module applicable to the fiber optic scanning imaging display technology in the embodiments of this specification, the incident surface of the polarization beam combiner is offset from the optical path by a specified angle, and this angle is greater than 1°, preferably, to ensure the coupling efficiency, this angle is less than 10°. It should be noted that the angle by which the incident surface of the polarization beam combiner is offset from the optical path can be understood as that this offset angle is relative to the case where the optical path is perpendicular to the incident surface of the polarization beam combiner. For example, Figure 8 the angle between the optical path and the incident surface of the polarization beam combiner in Figure 9A is 90°. After offsetting by the specified angle,

[0069] it should be noted that the shape of the polarization beam combiner is not limited to the above-mentioned cubic prism, and it can also be other shaped structures. For example, cutting on the structure of the cubic prism can meet the requirement that the angle between the beam and the incident surface deviates from the Figure 8 shown angle by more than 1° and less than 10°. Specifically, referring to Figure 9B , Figure 9B the polarization beam combiner 167 shown by the dashed line area in Figure 9B is the cubic prism in the above embodiment. Based on this polarization beam combiner 167, cutting is performed to obtain the polarization beam combiner 167a, that is, Figure 9B the area shown by the solid line area in Figure 9B the beam on the left side of the polarization beam splitting film in Figure 9B the optical fiber under the polarization beam splitting film in

[0070] It should be noted that the description of "cutting" here is only relative to the structure of the polarization beam combiner of the aforementioned cubic prism, for the convenience of explanation and the understanding of other personnel. In the specific production process, it is not necessarily cut based on the cubic prism structure, and other production methods can also be used, such as through a mold corresponding to its shape. In addition, here it can be regarded as cutting and removing a structure similar to a triangular prism on the basis of the polarization beam combiner 167. In other embodiments, only the places where the light path enters or exits (for example, the middle area of the side surface) can be processed, and the positions near the edge are not processed. The volume of the polarization beam combiner 167a here is smaller than that of the polarization beam combiner in the shape of a cubic prism, which is convenient for the miniaturized design of the overall light source module. Further, the incident surface and the exit surface of the polarization beam combiner can be parallel or non-parallel. Preferably, in some embodiments, an antireflection film can also be coated on the incident surface and the exit surface of the polarization beam combiner to further reduce the reflected light generated at the incident surface and the exit surface of the polarization beam combiner and reduce the influence of the echo on the semiconductor laser LD.

[0071] The embodiment of this specification also provides another polarization beam combiner 167A, which is used to weaken the influence of the echo when the optical paths of two groups of light sources are incident on the interface of the polarization beam combiner 167A. Refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 , this polarization beam combiner includes two substrates 1671 and a polarization beam splitting film 1672, and the polarization beam splitting film 1672 is located between the two substrates 1671 for fixation. The polarization beam combiner 167A provided by the embodiment of this specification is relative to Figure 9A and Figure 9B shown in the form of a cubic prism, and when it is placed in the optical path, it can achieve the same polarization beam combining effect. The volume of this polarization beam combiner 167A is small, which is convenient for the miniaturized design of the overall light source module. In addition, its plate-like structure is relatively thin and light. In the specific assembly process, the incident directions of the light beams corresponding to the two groups of light sources can form a relatively large angle with the incident surface, for example, preferably 45°, which can make the reflected light waves generated by the light beams corresponding to the two groups of light sources at the incident surface of the polarization beam combiner 167A return to the semiconductor laser LD as little as possible, thereby ensuring the final imaging quality.

[0072] In other alternative embodiments, the polarization beam combiner can include a substrate and a polarization beam splitting film, and the polarization beam splitting film is attached to one side of the substrate.

[0073] In some embodiments, the semiconductor laser LD can adopt the DFB form to avoid external interference. In other embodiments, the semiconductor laser LD can also adopt an FP chip, and an external cavity is provided at the pedestal where the FP chip is located to avoid the interference of external reflected echoes. Further, the reflectivity of the external cavity is in the range of 5% - 10%.

[0074] Refer toFigure 12 , in some embodiments, the optical module includes a base 160 for mounting and fixing the above-mentioned light sources 161, 162, wavelength beam combiner, polarization beam combiner, etc. Among them, two groups of light sources 161, 162 are arranged on the base 30. Further, the inner surface of the bottom of the base 160 corresponding to the polarization beam combiner 167 is not a plane. In some embodiments, the inner surface of the bottom of the base 30 corresponding to the polarization beam combiner 167 is an inclined surface. For the sake of easy understanding, it should be noted that this inclined surface is relative to the image beam after being combined by the polarization beam combiner. That is to say, there is an included angle between this inclined surface and the image beam after being combined by the polarization beam combiner. In the embodiments of this specification, by setting the inclined surface, the reflected light on the bottom surface of the base after the polarization beam combiner 167 reflects and projects can be weakened, and the influence of the reflected light returning along the reverse optical path on the semiconductor laser LD can be reduced. Further, in some embodiments, an absorbing coating can be provided on the inner surface of the base or the inner surface of the base can be set to black to absorb the light reflected and transmitted by the polarization beam combiner.

[0075] The embodiments of this specification also provide a projection display device, including R, G, B three-color light source modules and an optical scanning module. The light emitted by the R, G, B three-color light source modules is scanned and output by the optical scanning module and used as the display image light; the R, G, B three-color light source modules include the light source module described in any one of the above embodiments, and the optical scanning module includes an actuator. The output end of the pigtail is fixed on the actuator, and the pigtail extends beyond the actuator to form an optical fiber cantilever, and the optical fiber cantilever is driven by the scanning actuator to scan in a three-dimensional space.

[0076] In some embodiments, the R pigtail laser light source, G pigtail laser light source, and B pigtail laser light source can be independent light source modules, and then combined into one optical fiber through an RGB optical fiber combiner, and then scanned and output by the optical scanning module to form a scanned image.

[0077] In another possible implementation manner, the R, G, B three-color light source modules can be combined light sources, that is, the light emitted by the R, G, B laser combined pigtail light source is directly coupled into the optical fiber, and then scanned and output by the optical scanning module to form a scanned image. For example, the R laser light source, G laser light source, and B laser light source are combined through a dichroic filter and then directly coupled into the pigtail.

[0078] In order to reduce the production difficulty of the projection display device, lower the cost, and achieve a better image display effect, in some embodiments, a few-mode or single-mode optical fiber can be connected / fused between the optical scanning module and the light source module. Specifically, the instability of the light source will cause the distribution of energy between modes to be unstable during transmission in a multimode optical fiber, resulting in image changes. At this time, after passing through a few-mode optical fiber jumper, it plays a role in mode filtering and achieving stability, making the light field distribution reaching the optical scanning module relatively stable and ensuring the image display effect. It should be noted that the few-mode optical fiber in the embodiments of this specification refers to visible light, and the size of the few-mode optical fiber is between the sizes of the above-mentioned single-mode optical fiber and multimode optical fiber.

[0079] In other alternative embodiments, the light source module outputs with an optical fiber having fewer modes, and then conducts to the optical scanning module with relatively more modes for output. Even a few-mode / single-mode optical fiber is adopted in the entire optical link of the projection display device to achieve the maximum anti-interference ability.

[0080] In some specific application scenarios of the projection display device provided by the embodiments of this specification, referring to Figure 13 , when the optical fiber link is relatively long, such as in an in-vehicle scenario, for the convenience of installation, the projection display device includes a light source module 210, a connector 220, and an optical scanning module (not shown in the figure). Among them, the connector 220 is located between the light source module 210 and the optical scanning module. A certain amount of echo will be generated at the position of the connector 220, similar to the reverse reflected light generated at the fiber coupling end face described above. The distance between the connector 220 and the optical module will affect the image quality of the projection display device. To reduce its influence, in some embodiments, the distance between the connection position of the first connector 220 at the rear end of the light source module and the optical module 211 is not less than 50 cm. It should be noted that there are two optical fiber end faces inside the connector 220, and the distance between the two optical fiber end faces is extremely small and can be ignored. In the embodiments of this specification, any one of the two optical fiber end faces is used as the connection position of the connector 220. The distance from the connection position of the connector 220 to the optical module 211 refers to the distance from the connection position to the semiconductor laser LD of the optical module closest to the coupling lens.

[0081] When the joint is at 10 cm or 20 cm, the defects existing in the overall image are relatively obvious, while the image defects when the joint is at 50 cm are mainly concentrated in the extremely dark areas with extremely low brightness, and the influence on the display effect has been relatively small.
