<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a surface light emitting device capable of obtaining uniform surface emission output having a high luminance. <P>SOLUTION: This surface light emitting device has an almost plate-like light guide plate to derive light to its one main surface, a groove part formed on the side of the light guide plate, and a light emitting diode element at least a part of which is inserted in the groove part to emit light in the in-plane direction of the main surface of the light guide plate. Since the groove part is formed on the side of the guide plate, the light emitting diode element serving as a light source can be inserted into the inside of the groove. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
