Abstract
A light source device includes: a light source section emitting excitation light; homogenizer optical element; first condensing element converging the excitation light; wavelength conversion element on which the converged excitation light is incident and that emits fluorescent light; and light separation element. The light source section, homogenizer optical element, and light separation element are disposed on a first illumination optical axis. The light separation element emits at least a portion of the excitation light incident from the homogenizer optical element toward the first condensing element, and emits the fluorescent light incident from the wavelength conversion element through the first condensing element in a direction of a second illumination optical axis intersecting the first illumination optical axis at the light separation element, the homogenizer optical element includes first and second multi-lenses, and the first and second multi-lenses are movable along an orthogonal plane with respect to the first illumination optical axis.
