Abstract

This invention provides a polarization conversion element that is highly resistant to the heat and light that result from increased brightness levels. In said polarization conversion element, which is provided with a polarizing beam-splitter array in which polarizing beam splitters having polarization separation layers and reflecting prisms having reflective layers are bonded together in alternation, said polarizing beam splitters and reflecting prisms are bonded together by first adhesive layers each comprising a silicone adhesive.
