Abstract
A wavelength conversion element according to an aspect of the invention includes a base having a reflection surface, a wavelength conversion section that has a first surface on which excitation light is incident and a second surface facing away from the first surface and converts the excitation light in terms of wavelength into fluorescence, and a bonding section that bonds the wavelength conversion section to the base. Bonding the wavelength conversion section to the base via the bonding section with the reflection surface and the second surface separate from each other provides an air layer in part of the space between the reflection surface and the second surface, and at least part of a portion of the first surface that is the portion facing the air layer is a light incident area on which the excitation light is incident.
