摘要 |
An optical system and a projection system incorporating same are disclosed. The optical system includes first and second optical elements. The second optical element is polarization insensitive in the visible. The first optical element is capable of receiving light of a first polarization along a first direction and transmitting the received light along the first direction. The first optical element is also capable of receiving light of a second polarization orthogonal to the first polarization along the first direction and reflecting the received light along a second direction different from the first direction. When the optical system receives light of the first polarization along the second direction, the first optical element transmits the received light along the second direction. The transmitted light has the first polarization and a first set of color coordinates. The second optical element transmits at least a portion of the light transmitted by the first optical element. The light transmitted by the second optical element has a second set of color coordinates that is different from the first set of color coordinates.
