Abstract
A wavelength conversion member includes: a substrate; a wavelength converter including phosphor particles excited by excitation light and a binder layer that fixes or adheres the adjacent phosphor particles to one another, the wavelength converter being provided on a front surface side of the substrate; and a light reflecting film that reflects fluorescent light radiated by the phosphor particles, the light reflecting film being provided on at least a part of an interface between the substrate and the wavelength converter, wherein a refractive index of the phosphor particles is larger than a refractive index of the binder layer. It is preferable that the binder layer include nanogaps which are voids with an average diameter of 300 nm or less in an inside.
