Zusammenfassung:A light irradiation apparatus includes an optical window, a light source and an irradiation unit. The optical window is formed of a light-transmissive material. The light source is configured to emit irradiation light with linear polarization. The irradiation unit is configured to irradiate the irradiation light emitted from the light source toward a preset irradiation range through the optical window. Moreover, the optical window has a shape such that the reflectivity of the irradiation light within a specified range is lower than or equal to a preset upper limit; the specified range is provided within the irradiation range.
