A light source device includes a light source device includes a first light source configured to emit first light, and a first lens that includes a first surface on which the first light having a first optical axis is incident and a second surface from which a second light having a second optical axis is emitted. An intensity of the first light has a first value on the first optical axis of the first light.

Light source device

An optical device includes: a plurality of walls including at least a first wall and a second wall, wherein the plurality of walls are concentrically disposed around a first axis so as to be multi-stepped along the first axis, wherein each of the plurality of walls expands outward in a sector shape around the first axis at a predetermined central angle &#x3b8; and includes an outer circumferential surface, a reflective curved surface at the outer circumferential surface, a first side end portion, and a second side end portion; a first reflective surface meeting the first side end portions of the walls; and a second reflective surface meeting the second side end portions of the walls. The first reflective surface and the second reflective surface meet each other on the first axis.

Optical device and illumination device

An optical device includes: a plurality of walls disposed to meet along a first axis and having reflecting surfaces facing a space interposed between the walls; and a plurality of partitions, each having a funnel-like shape and each having an outer surface that includes a curved reflecting surface, the partitions disposed in the space interposed between the walls coaxially with the first axis at multiple levels along the first axis; wherein the outer surface of a first of the partitions located at an upper level is configured to receive at least some light through an opening of a second of the partitions located at lower level.
