Abstract
A light source device includes: a laser diode bar comprising a plurality of strips configured to emit light in a wavelength region with a predetermined width; a light guiding part comprising a plurality of cores, each of which corresponds to a respective one of the plurality of strips, and on each of which light emitted from the respective one of the strips is incident; a diffraction grating on which light emitted from the cores is incident; and a resonator mirror on which light emitted from the diffraction grating is incident. The cores are disposed such that light emitted from the cores is incident on a region of the diffraction grating at different angles. The diffraction grating comprises a pattern configured to diffract light incident on the diffraction grating from the cores such that the diffracted light is emitted along a single optical axis.
