Abstract

See full text

A surface light emitting device includes a light source and a light introduction plate having a structure for causing the light from the light source to be incident from a side end surface and to outgo from a light outgoing surface. Grooves are formed in a stripe shape on an opposing surface opposite to the light outgoing surface, and the grooves are formed deeper as they have a longer distance from the light source, and the difference between the depths of adjacent grooves is made larger as they have a distance longer from the light source. A method of manufacturing the surface light emitting device and a liquid crystal device including the surface light emitting device are also disclosed. With this arrangement, the surface light emitting device can obtain a sufficiently quantity of light at any position and the liquid crystal device can display an image in uniform brightness.
