Abstract
A light source apparatus according to an aspect of the invention includes an excitation light source that emits excitation light, a wavelength conversion layer on which the excitation light is incident and which converts the wavelength of the excitation light to emit fluorescence, a plurality of traveling direction changers that are formed in the wavelength conversion layer and change the traveling direction of the fluorescence, and a substrate on which the wavelength conversion layer is provided. The substrate is rotated around an axis of rotation to change the position on which the excitation light is incident on the wavelength conversion layer over time, and the interval between the plurality of traveling direction changers is smaller than the size of the region on which the excitation light is incident.
