Abstract
A light source module includes a light source and a first optical element. The light source is configured to emit first and second light beams. The first optical element has a first surface on which the first second light beam are to be incident. The first light beam and the second light beam are incident on the first surface along a first direction such that the first light beam is incident at a first position on the first surface and the second light beam is incident at a second position on the first surface. The first light beam has a first width in a second direction intersecting the first direction on the first surface, and a second width in a third direction intersecting a plane including the first direction and the second direction on the first surface. The first width is greater than the second width. The second light beam has a third width in the second direction on the first surface, and a fourth width in the third direction on the first surface. The third width is greater than the fourth width. A direction from the second position to the first position intersects the third direction. The first light beam has a first peak wavelength, and the second light beam has a second peak wavelength different from the first peak wavelength of the first light beam. The first optical element has an optical power in the second direction greater than an optical power of the first optical element in the third direction.
