Abstract
Provided is a new light source device using an excimer lamp, particularly, a light source device for sterilization and deodorization. The light source device includes an excimer lamp and a flyback-type lighting device that supplies power to the excimer lamp. The lighting device includes a transformer, a switching element, and a control circuit that supplies a drive signal to the switching element. The control circuit controls the switching element on and off so that the switching frequency (FS) for the switching element at the time of starting to light is lower than the switching frequency (FO) at the time of steady-state lighting, and the ON-duty (TS) for the switching element at the time of starting to light is lower than the ON-duty (TO) at the time of steady-state lighting.
