    摘要: According to a conventional backlight device for use in a thin full-color display device in which pixels are subjected to a color separation by colored lights, a large chromatic aberration occurs, thereby causing a deterioration in image quality. A thin backlight system in accordance with the present invention includes: a light emitting section (1) for emitting lights that have different dominant wavelengths; and a plurality of light transmitting parts (4) arranged in a predetermined manner, the thin backlight system deflecting the lights and then converging the lights on the plurality of light transmitting parts (4), said thin backlight system, further including: an imaging optical system (3) provided so as to face surfaces, of the plurality of light transmitting parts (4), on which the lights are to be converged, the imaging optical system (3) (i) having a plurality of identical lenses arranged in a vertical and/or a horizontal direction at a pitch found by multiplying a pitch at which the plurality of light transmitting parts (4) are arranged in a vertical and/or a horizontal direction by the number of types of the different dominant wavelengths and (ii) being configured so as to converge the lights from the light emitting section (1) on light transmitting parts (4) to which the different dominant wavelengths of the lights correspond; and an irradiating optical system (2) provided so as to face (a) the light emitting section (1) and (b) a surface, of the imaging optical system (3), through which the lights enter the imaging optical system (3), the irradiating optical system (2) being configured such that (I) the lights from the light emitting section (1), which lights have the different dominant wavelengths, are deflected by the irradiating optical system (2) by at least being reflected by the irradiating optical system (2) so as to be separate from each other, (II) the lights thus deflected leave the irradiating optical system (2) so as to travel in substantially parallel to a normal to each of the plurality of light transmitting parts (4) and (III) the lights enter the plurality of identical lenses of the imaging optical system (3) through a surface, of the imaging optical system (3), which is opposite to the plurality of light transmitting parts (4).

    摘要: Conventional planar light source devices have a problem that increasing a utilization ratio of light results in a very narrow angle distribution of light. A planar light source device of the present invention has a light source (1), a light guide plate (2) for introducing light coming from the light source via a light-incident plane of the light guide plate and emits the light from almost all area of a light emission plane, and a light source side reflector (3) for reflecting the light coming from the light source and light which comes from the light source and is reflected by the light-incident plane of the light guide plate so that the reflected light is emitted to the light-incident plane of the light guide plate. The planar light source device further includes a lower side reflector (5) for introducing light emitted from the lower plane of the light guide plate into the light guide plate again, and an optical member (4) for changing a traveling direction of first light (10) which is introduced via the light-incident plane to pass through the light guide plate and is emitted from an upper plane of the light guide plate to a vertical upper direction. The lower side reflector is inclined by an angle of 5°-60° with respect to the lower plane of the light guide plate, and θ2=90°−θ1±10° is met where θ1 (°) represents a maximum angle between the upper plane and a direction in which the first light is emitted from the upper plane and θ2 (°) represents an apex angle of the optical member.
