Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a monolithic panel projector using a laser as a light source device and a light source device thereof, and more particularly to a laser light source as a light source The beam expanding component can expand the beam to a certain extent when the laser beam passes through the beam expanding component, and can be used as a light source device in a monolithic panel projector. [Prior Art] With the rapid development of the technology era, a variety of information electronic products and equipment have emerged, and all kinds of product components are moving toward a light, short, and short goal, how to make the product more humane, and more It is one of the main topics in the market. It is easy to carry and meet the needs of human factors engineering and meet the needs of consumers. China's optoelectronic industry has flourished over the past decade, and has established considerable experience and technology in optical design, simulation, process, and spectral testing. Therefore, the development of miniaturized optical electronic products should have great advantages. "Light, thin, short, small, low cost" is the trend of modern electronic products. Many electronic products are updating their appearance with amazing speed of change due to the great progress of electronic hardware, computers and microprocessors. Miniaturized optical electronics will have great potential for development. For example, the briefing machine frequently used by the business community, together with the continuous improvement of mobile technology, not only makes the portable computer more and more lightweight, how to reduce the volume of the optical projection presentation system used together, and enhance the saturation and lumen intensity of the color. And the big 200811581 towel I improved the painting S fresh problem 'is related to the industry - just want to pursue the general purpose, the projector is a tungsten halogen lamp, metal halide lamp, ultra-neo mercury lamp or gas lamp - As its light source. In addition to the advantages and disadvantages of the above light sources, there are common shortcomings such as overheating of the light source, high power consumption, low lamp life, excessive volume, heavy weight, and difficulty in carrying. Therefore, in recent years, it has been studied to use a relatively low power consumption, a small amount of heat, a small volume, and a life-recording secret light diode (LED) (four) as a projector light source. However, due to the limited optical characteristics of conventional LEDs and the way in which they are scattered around in all directions, such a conventional LED is used for the optical position of the projector, not only in the color saturation of its image, but also brightly. The degree of sharpness and the sharpness of the enamel are relatively poor, and the light utilization efficiency of the conventional led light scattering is reduced, which in turn causes the projection brightness of the projector to be further improved. Therefore, in today's market (4), how to meet the needs of consumers under the trend of projector resolution and image quality, the projector design is lighter and shorter, and the image quality is better and the color is more vivid. A more stable and high-intensity light source output is one of the most important development topics in the industry.

Referring to FIG. 4, it is a schematic diagram of a light path of a second preferred embodiment of the projector using the laser as a light source device. Different from the first preferred embodiment, the laser light sources (l〇a, i〇b, i〇c) of different spectra of red, green, and blue (r, G, b) are directly projected into the individual. Each of the light-emitting elements 20 is separately expanded. In the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, the laser light sources (l〇a, i〇b, i〇c) of the three different primary colors of red, green, and blue (R, G, B) are directly projected first. In the cross type color filter 30. Then, the light combining device 30 combines the individual red, green, and blue (R, G, B) three primary color light beams into a combined light beam of the same optical axis, and further projects on the beam expanding element 20 to combine the light. The beam expands to a certain extent of the area and is projected into the light guiding element 40 at the rear. The light guiding element 4 2008 200811581 is a light pipe 41 and integrated with the beam expanding element 2 ,, which can integrate the expanded combined light beam into the collecting light pipe.

Then, the uniform light refracted by the light guiding element 40 is projected onto the digital micromirror display device 60 to form an image frame, and then the image light is folded by the cymbal group 5〇. The lens group 70 is projected and projected out of the projector. Referring to FIG. 5, it is a schematic diagram of a light path of a third preferred embodiment of a projector using a laser as a light source device. Since the third preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is substantially similar to the second preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the same components and structures will not be described below. The third preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is different in that the light guiding element 40 further comprises a collecting lens 42 and a micro mirror array MLA(MiCK)mim)rLensAiTay)43.
