A surface light source capable of reducing color stains with reduced number of light emitting diodes and manufactured at low costs, and a liquid crystal display backlight unit employing the same. The surface light source includes a plurality of light source clusters arrayed along first and second directions, each of the clusters including three light emitting diodes disposed in a triangular arrangement, the three light emitting diodes including green, red and blue light emitting diodes. The surface light source also includes a first array of the clusters lined along and inverted alternately about the first direction; and a second array of the clusters lined along and inverted alternately about the second direction, where the first array is perpendicular to the second array. The invention reduces color stains to achieve uniform white light and reduces the number of light emitting diodes to manufacture a product at low costs. |
