Provided is a projector light source which can effectively project a light
beam having a sufficient volume from a lamp as a light source, and which
is highly accurate and is excellent in workability. The projector light
source comprising an arc tube for emitting a light beam; and a concave
reflector including a hold part for holding the arc tube, and having a
concave reflection surface for reflecting the light beam from the arc
tube so that the light beam outgoes through an opening of the reflector,
the concave reflector comprising a first reflector located in the
vicinity of the hold part for holding the light emitting tube, and second
reflector located in a part other than the hold part, and made of a
material different from that of the first reflector. Further, the first
reflector is made of heat-resistant glass, and the second reflector is
made a material containing a heat-resistant organic material having a
thermal deformation temperature which is lower than that of the
heat-resistant glass.
