A light source device includes a light source configured to emit excitation light, a wavelength conversion section configured to perform wavelength conversion on the excitation light to generate fluorescence having a wavelength longer than a wavelength of the excitation light, a substrate opposed to the wavelength conversion section, and an air gap disposed between the wavelength conversion section and the substrate, wherein the wavelength conversion section has a first surface opposed to the substrate, the substrate has a second surface opposed to the first surface, a thickness dimension of the air gap as a dimension in a direction from the first surface toward the second surface is defined by a sum of a roughness of the first surface and a roughness of the second surface, and the thickness dimension of the air gap is no smaller than a wavelength of the fluorescence.
