なる欠点があった。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a fluorescent lamp that can emit uniform light and obtain a uniform brightness surface, and is used as a light source for general lighting, interior lighting, and transmissive liquid crystal displays. It can be used as a light source for illuminated signboards. Until now, light sources for illuminated signboards and light-emitting liquid crystal displays have been made by arranging multiple fluorescent rungs such as straight tubes or reflex type fluorescent lamps to create a surface-emitting source. However, a diffuser plate was installed at a certain distance from the light emission. However, due to the transmission loss of the diffuser plate and the distance from the light source, a decrease in the amount of light coming out to the front was unavoidable. Furthermore, the above-mentioned system has the disadvantage that the structure is complicated and the light source section is large.

示す。DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS As an embodiment of the present invention, a flat fluorescent lamp for a liquid crystal display will be described with reference to the drawings. A liquid crystal display creates a back surface by partially changing the transmittance of the liquid crystal surface in response to an image signal. Therefore, a light source that is flat and has a uniform luminance distribution is required. FIG. 1 shows the appearance of a flat fluorescent lamp which is an example of the present invention.

が水銀放電によって生じた紫外線に励起され発光する。Reference numeral 1.2 denotes electrodes placed to face each other, and when a high frequency voltage is sequentially applied to this pair of electrodes, a mercury discharge occurs between the electrodes. The inner surface of the bulb 3 is coated with a phosphor, which is excited by the ultraviolet rays generated by the mercury discharge and emits light.

。This light emission is moved by sequentially switching the potential to which the voltage is applied, and by performing this switching at high speed, the entire lamp emits light visually uniformly. FIG. 2 shows a cross section of the lamp. In the figure, 1 and 2 are the electrodes,
3 is the Mi bulb, and 4 is a phosphor. Further, 5 is an aluminum vapor-deposited surface for reflecting light emitted from the back surface to the front surface.

薄く小形で効率のよい光源を提供できる利点がある。Effects of the Invention As described above, the present invention has a plurality of electrodes arranged to face each other, and by moving a discharge path inside, a uniform luminance distribution can be obtained, and it can be used as a light source for a liquid crystal display or as an electric lamp. It has the advantage of providing a thinner, smaller, and more efficient light source than a light source that has a uniform brightness distribution by arranging conventional lamps and using a diffuser plate and an optical system, such as on billboards.
