Abstract

A light source module includes a substrate, a first illumination element, a second illumination element and a third illumination element. The first illumination element includes a blue LED chip disposed on the substrate and a first wavelength converting layer that covers the blue LED chip, in which blue light emitted from the blue LED chip can be converted to light in the range of a first wavelength. The second illumination element includes a blue LED chip disposed on the substrate and a second wavelength converting layer that covers the blue LED chip, in which blue light emitted from the blue LED chip can be converted to light in the range of a second wavelength. The third illumination element includes a blue LED chip.
