Original Abstract Submitted

A light source device according to the present disclosure includes a light emitting element, a substrate having a first surface and a second surface, a wavelength conversion member which includes a phosphor, a support member having a third surface having contact with the first surface of the substrate, and a fourth surface located at an opposite side to the third surface, and configured to support the wavelength conversion member, a fixation member configured to fix the support member to the substrate, and a spacer member having contact with each of the substrate and the wavelength conversion member to hold the light emitting element and the wavelength conversion member at positions separated from each other. The fixation member is configured including an elastic member, and is configured to fix the support member to the substrate in a state of pressing the third surface toward the first surface.
