Abstract:
A display device including a liquid crystal panel configured to selectively transmit light for each pixel of the liquid crystal panel; a light guide plate provided behind the liquid crystal panel; a light source array including a plurality of LEDs arranged in a row at first lateral side of the light guide plate, and configured to emit light to the first lateral side of the light guide plate; and a mirror provided in a second lateral side of the light guide plate and configured to reflect the light having reached the second lateral side back along the light guide plate. Further, a rear surface of the light guide plate includes a stepped unevenness having first surfaces configured to reflect light toward the liquid crystal panel and second surfaces configured to reflect light toward the mirror, and a thickness of the light guide plate increases in a first direction from the first lateral side to the second lateral side such that the second lateral side of the light guide plate is thicker than the first lateral side of the light guide plate.
