Abstract
A projector includes: a phosphor wheel that, in response to the irradiation of excitation light that is used as the first illumination light, generates fluorescence that contains second illumination light and third illumination light and emits the excitation light and fluorescence in opposite directions; first to third image display elements that are provided corresponding to the first to third illumination light; a first illumination optical system that guides the excitation light that was emitted from the phosphor wheel to the first image display element; and a second illumination optical system and third illumination optical system that guide the second illumination light and third illumination light that are contained in the fluorescence emitted from the phosphor wheel to the second image display element and to the third image display element. The lengths of the optical paths of the first, second, and third illumination optical systems are the same.
