A planar light guide includes a main body with a back face and a radiation outcoupling face opposite thereto, a main direction of light guidance parallel to the radiation outcoupling face, at least one plurality of identically shaped and identically oriented outcoupling structures formed on at least one of the main faces, and at least one structure main face per outcoupling structure, wherein an angle-dependent emission characteristic is provided asymmetrically in a first plane parallel to the main direction of light guidance and perpendicular to the radiation outcoupling face.
