Abstract

A projection system includes a first and second optical system including an optical element. The optical element has a first transmissive surface, a reflection surface, and a second transmissive surface. The second transmissive surface has a convex shape an aspheric shape. An effective light ray range of the second transmissive surface has a first end close to an optical axis of the reflection surface in a first axis direction along a first axis perpendicular to the optical axis and a second end far from the optical axis. A first radius of curvature at the first end is greater than a second radius of curvature at the second end, and a first center of curvature of the first radius of curvature is farther than a second center of curvature of the second radius of curvature from the first end.
