ABSTRACT TKydOw@P"
Based on analyzing the LC rear projective TV system, The OE (optical engine) for three penal LCoS rear projection TV o;P;=<
system has been designed and modeled, The OE (optical engine) of LC rear projection display is the main component of ng6p#F,3
the system, and it directly affects final performance, so the design of good color performance, high brightness and Y##P9^zH1
contrast and high optical efficient is the key of the system. From a commercial viewpoint, a compact size and light -Af`AX
weight design makes it more competitive. LightTools software has a great many of powerful functions, such as XD>@EYN<X
modeling of optical system, analysis of illumination, modeling of machine structure, analysis of polarization and design ^/YAokj
of optical coating. We have used LightTools to analyses and optimize a whole optical engine of three penal LCoS MX_a]$\:n
projection display including illumination system, dividing and recombining of colors system, projection lens. At the end qk"=nAJX
evaluated the performances of optical engine (parameters of output, uniformity, contract, resolution and so on). gV>\lMc[-%
