A light source device includes a light emitting diode (LED) device, a lens
and a light diffusing layer. The LED device includes an LED chip, which
emits light, and a fluorescent, which converts a part of the light from
the LED chip. The lens is located on a side of a light emitting face of
the LED device. The light diffusing layer is located between the LED
device and the lens. An air layer exists between the light diffusing
layer and the LED device or between the light diffusing layer and the
lens.
