Abstract

A light source device is provided with a blue laser emitting element, a red laser emitting element, a phosphor, a polarization split element having a polarization split function with respect to blue light and red light, and a diffusion element. The blue light emitted from the blue laser emitting element enters the polarization split element to be split into a first blue polarization component and a second blue polarization component. The first blue polarization component enters the diffusion element to turn to blue diffused light. The phosphor is excited by the second blue polarization component to emit fluorescence, and the red light emitted from the red laser emitting element enters the diffusion element to be diffusely transmitted to turn to red diffused light. The blue diffused light, the red diffused light and a part of the fluorescence are combined with each other, and then emitted from the polarization split element.
