Abstract
A light source optical system used with an excitation light source configured to emit first color light includes a wavelength conversion unit configured to receive the first color light emitted by the excitation light source and emit second color light with a wavelength different from a wavelength of the first color light, There is a first optical system having a positive power and a second optical system having a positive power provided in this order in an optical path between the excitation light source and the wavelength conversion unit. When a ray parallel to an optical axis of the first optical system is incident on the first optical system, a ray emitted from the first optical system is incident on the second optical system while approaching the optical axis. The second optical system has under-corrected spherical aberration at a paraxial focal position of the second optical system.
