Abstract
An illumination system includes at least one excitation light source, a holographic optical element and a phosphor wheel. The excitation light source provides a first color beam. The holographic optical element is located on a path of the first color beam and transmits the first color beam to the phosphor wheel along a first path. The phosphor wheel has a light wavelength conversion portion and a reflective portion. The light wavelength conversion portion converts the first color beam into a second color beam and reflects the second color beam back to the holographic optical element. The reflective portion reflects the first color beam back to the holographic optical element. The holographic optical element transmits the second color beam and the first color beam reflected from the phosphor wheel along a second path, and the first path is different from the second path. A projection apparatus is also provided.
