Abstract

A light source unit includes a blue light source configured to output light in a blue wavelength range, an excitation light source configured to emit excitation light having a shorter wavelength than a wavelength of the light in the blue wavelength range outputted from the blue light source, and a luminescent wheel including a luminescent light emitting area on to which the excitation light is shined to thereby emit luminescent light and a light guiding area configured to transmit or reflect the light in the blue wavelength range, and the excitation light is shined on to the luminescent light emitting area from a first surface side of the luminescent wheel, and the light in the blue wavelength range is shined on to the light guiding area from a second surface side of the luminescent wheel that is opposite to the first surface side.
