    Abstract: An optical member includes: a phosphor layer including a phosphor that converts a wavelength of a portion of light from a light source which is incident on an incidence face; and a microlens array that causes the portion of light wavelength-converted by the phosphor layer and the other portion of light transmitted through the phosphor layer to emerge from an emission face, in which a diffractive lens array for diffracting the portion of light wavelength-converted and the other portion of light transmitted is provided on the emission face of the microlens array, and a pitch of the diffractive lens array is different for each of predetermined sections.

    Abstract: An illuminating device according to the present disclosure is of a reflective type and uses a laser beam. The illuminating device includes: a laser element that emits a laser beam; an optical fiber that transmits the laser beam emitted by the laser element; a phosphor layer that converts a wavelength of light incident on one of surfaces and emits the light through the one of the surfaces; and an optical component that causes reflected light of the laser beam transmitted through the optical fiber to be incident on the one of the surfaces of the phosphor layer. With the illuminating device, an intensity distribution of the light incident on the one of the surfaces of the phosphor layer is sparse at a central region.

    Abstract: A wavelength conversion device for laser light including a laser light source that emits laser light having a predetermined wavelength; a first substrate that is light-transmissive; a second substrate that is light-transmissive; a phosphor layer provided between and in surface contact with the first substrate and the second substrate, the phosphor layer converting a wavelength of the laser light; and a gap-maintaining component located between the first substrate and the second substrate, the gap-maintaining component adjusting a thickness of the phosphor layer by maintaining a uniform distance between the first substrate and the second substrate. Each of the first substrate and the second substrate has a thermal conductivity higher than a thermal conductivity of the phosphor layer. The gap-maintaining component is a plurality of thickness adjustment particles that are light-transmissive and have a shape having a substantially equal diameter, and the shape is one of wire-shaped, ring-shaped, and protruding.
