To provide an optical element and a light source unit, having favorable color reproducibility and preventing the occurrence of color irregularity.
Columnar projections 4 are arranged in a first direction (X-axis direction) and in a second direction (Y-axis direction) intersecting each other like a square grid on a substrate 2, the columnar projections 4 are arranged at spaces d1 corresponding to the wavelength of a first light beam Lr entering in the first direction in the first direction, the columnar projections 4 are arranged at spaces d2 corresponding to the wavelength of a second light beam Lg entering from the second direction in the second direction, and the space d3 of columns L3 of the columnar projections 4 arranged in the third direction intersecting both the first direction and the second direction corresponds to the wavelength of a third light beam Lb entering from the direction orthogonal to the third direction.
