PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compact light source device which emits bright illumination light and switches colors.SOLUTION: The light source has an excitation light source and fluorescent bodies 30A, 30B, 30C. The fluorescent bodies 30A, 30B, 30C are exited by excitation light emitted by the excitation light source to emit first, second, and third fluorescence respectively. The fluorescent bodies 30A, 30B, 30C are arranged and placed in the light emission end direction so that the fluorescent body 30B may be positioned nearer the side of light emission end than the fluorescent body 30A and the fluorescent body 30C is positioned nearer the side of the light emission end than the fluorescent body 30B. The fluorescent body 30B has three through holes 32, whereas the fluorescent body 30C has three through holes 34 and three through holes 36. The through hole 32 and the through holes 34 are lined up.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】明るい照明光を射出する色切り替え可能な小型の光源装置を提供する。【解決手段】光源装置は励起光源と蛍光体30A,30B,30Cとを有している。蛍光体30A,30B,30Cはそれぞれ、励起光源から射出された励起光によって励起されて第一と第二と第三の蛍光を発する。蛍光体30A,30B,30Cは、蛍光体30Bが蛍光体30Aよりも光射出端側に位置し、蛍光体30Cが蛍光体30Bよりも光射出端側に位置するように、光射出端方向に並べて配置されている。蛍光体30Bは三つの貫通穴32を有し、蛍光体30Cは三つの貫通穴34と三つの貫通穴36を有している。貫通穴32と貫通穴34は整列している。【選択図】図2
