<p>Disclosed are an illumination device to be located immediately below an object to be illuminated, wherein a plurality of point-like light sources are arranged, and a display device provided with the illumination device. Even in a structure wherein the light emitted from point-like light sources is diffused and planarly emitted, in order to provide an illumination device which can uniformly and planarly emit the light without reducing the light intensity at the overlapped portion of the light emitted from the point-like light sources, point-like light sources (LED light sources (1A)) each diffusing the light to be emitted in a square-shaped light emission distribution (H1), are used as the aforementioned point-like light sources, and an illumination device (LED backlight device) (4) wherein the point-like light sources are arranged in a planar manner so that the square-shaped light emission distributions (H1) of the light diffused by the point-like light sources are overlapped in parallel, is used as the aforementioned illumination device.</p> |
