Abstract
A wavelength converting member comprising a first wavelength converting layer containing: a first fluorescent material having a light emission peak wavelength in a range of 620 nm or more and 660 nm or less; a second fluorescent material having a light emission peak wavelength in a range of 510 nm or more and 560 nm or less; and a resin, wherein the average particle diameter, as measured according to a Fisher Sub-Sieve Sizer method, of the first fluorescent material is in a range of 2 μm or more and 30 μm or less, wherein the second fluorescent material comprises a β-SiAlON fluorescent material, the circularity of the β-SiAlON fluorescent material is 0.7 or more, and the volume average particle diameter, as measured according to a laser diffraction scattering particle size distribution measuring method, of the β-SiAlON fluorescent material is in a range of 2 μm or more and 30 μm or less, and wherein the thickness of the first wavelength converting layer is in a range of 50 μm or more and 200 μm or less.
