Abstract

A light source device according to the present disclosure includes a first light source section for emitting a first light flux, a second light source section for emitting a second light flux, a third light source section for emitting a third light flux, a first reflecting member, a second reflecting member for reflecting the second light flux, and a polarization combining element. With respect to the polarization combining element, the first light flux and the second light flux are light polarized in a first polarization direction, and the third light flux is light polarized in a second polarization direction, and the first and second reflecting members are disposed so that a distance between the first light flux and second light flux becomes smaller after incidence than before the incidence. The polarization combining element combines the first light flux, the second light flux, and the third light flux with each other.
