Backlight unit, liquid crystal display apparatus using the same, and light-emitting diode used therefor

摘要

There are provided light-emitting layer provided on transparent substrate and emitting light of a specific wavelength, mirror layer formed on a light exit side of light-emitting layer and including a function of reflecting light emitted from light-emitting layer, reflecting layer provided on a side of substrate in a manner to interpose light-emitting layer between mirror layer and reflecting layer; and a diffusion layer that diffuses light emitted from light-emitting layer is disposed between mirror layer and reflecting layer.
