Abstract

A wavelength converter includes a wavelength conversion layer including a first recess on a first surface thereof and configured to convert blue excitation light into yellow fluorescent light, a first matching layer provided on the light incident surface of the wavelength conversion layer, and a first flat layer provided on a second surface on the opposite side of a surface of the first matching layer facing the wavelength conversion layer, the first flat layer entering the first recess of the light incident surface. A light refractive index of the first matching layer is an intermediate light refractive index between a light refractive index of the wavelength conversion layer and a light refractive index of the first flat layer.
