<p>A color separating/recombining unit used in liquid crystal projector using three reflection type liquid crystal panels. The color separating/recombining unit (20) has a cubic form comprising a light incidence surface (21) facing the light source unit (10), three light incidence/output surfaces (23), (24), (25) respectively facing liquid crystal panels (31), (32), (33), a light output surface (22) facing a projection optical system (40), and another surface (26). The color separating/recombining unit has thereinside a color separating/recombining means (50) that spectrally separates light shone from the light source (10) into three-primary-color components to allow them emit from corresponding light incidence/output surfaces (23), (24), (25) and to be reflected with their polarization directions rotated 90 degrees by the liquid crystal panels (31), (32), (33) disposed respectively facing the light incidence/output surfaces (23), (24), (25), then recombines them, and emits them from the light output surface (22) to the projection optical system (40). <IMAGE></p> |
