Definitions
- the present invention relates to various display devices, and more particularly to a direct backlight device of a liquid crystal display device.
- Liquid crystal display devices are used in a variety of applications, including notebook computers and mobile phone devices, as well as televisions, monitors, and car navigation systems.
- the liquid crystal display device incorporates a backlight device serving as a light source, and is configured to display light by controlling light beams from the backlight device through a liquid crystal cell.
- the characteristic required for this backlight device is not only as a light source for emitting light, but also to make the entire screen shine brightly and uniformly.
- the configuration of the backlight device can be roughly divided into two.
- One is a system called a sidelight type backlight.
- This is a method mainly used for, for example, a notebook personal computer or the like that is required to be thin and small, but is characterized by using a light guide plate as a basic configuration.
- a light source is disposed on the side surface of the light guide plate, light is incident on the light guide plate from the side surface, and light is propagated throughout the surface while totally reflecting inside the light guide plate. A part of the light is removed from the total reflection condition by diffusing dots or the like applied to the back surface, and the light is collected from the front surface of the light guide plate, thereby functioning as a backlight, that is, a surface light source.

By arranging a plurality of linear light sources composed of linear or partially linear fluorescent tubes or LEDs in the back of the screen, it is possible to cope with a large screen and to secure sufficient brightness.
- the light diffusing plate is a light diffusing plate made of an acrylic resin or a polycarbonate resin in which fine particles are dispersed. This light diffusing plate eliminates tube unevenness and makes the screen uniform, but because it diffuses strongly, the total light transmittance is low and the light utilization efficiency deteriorates. As a result, the required front brightness is insufficient.
- a diffusing sheet exhibiting a light condensing effect is disposed in the front direction while diffusing light isotropically.
- This diffusion sheet is a sheet called a bead sheet in which a diffusion layer containing fine particles such as organic cross-linked particles is formed on a base material sheet.

- the prism sheet is formed with a plurality of convex shapes extending in one direction on the surface opposite to the linear light source side.
- the longitudinal directions of the plurality of convex shapes are parallel to the longitudinal directions of the plurality of linear light sources.
- the reflective material has a 60 ° glossiness of 5 or less measured based on JIS K 7105 (1981) on the surface of the linear light source.
