Claim Text:
1. A light source apparatus comprising: a first blue-light source which emits light in a first blue-wavelength range; a second blue-light source which emits light in a second blue-wavelength range having wavelengths longer than the wavelengths in the first blue-wavelengths range; and an optical-path switch controller which time-divisionally performs (1) a first operation of guiding the light in the first blue-wavelength range and the light in the second blue-wavelength range to a first optical-guide system, and (2) a second operation of guiding the light in the first blue-wavelength range to the first optical-guide system and the light in the second blue-wavelength range to a second optical-guide system, wherein the optical-path controller performs control such that in the first operation, the light in the first blue-wavelength range and the light in the second blue-wavelength range have respectively different planes of polarization.
