Abstract
A light source device includes: a phosphor unit that is provided with a phosphor; an excitation light source that supplies excitation light that excites the phosphor; a reducing optical system that reduces the luminous flux diameter of the excitation light; and a light condensing optical system that condenses, on the phosphor unit, excitation light for which the luminous flux diameter was reduced by the reducing optical system. The reducing optical system includes: a plurality of lenses including two lenses having positive power; and a lens-moving section that moves the lens back and forth along the direction of the optical axis. The lens is disposed on the excitation light source side, and has a lower power than the lens. The refractive index of the lens is equal to or smaller than the refractive indexes of the other lenses of the reducing optical system.
