<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a planar light source device and a backlight unit which are released from a question of uneven brightness among discharge channels and exhibits uniform brightness property. <P>SOLUTION: A planar light source device 110 comprises a light source component divided into a plurality of discharge channels 115, 125, 135, 145, and 155, electrodes 119, 129, 139, 149, and 159, which are formed along a second directions intersecting with a first direction where the discharge channels 115, 125, 135, 145, and 155 are extending and apply discharge voltage to them, respectively. Among the plurality of discharge channels 115, 125, 135, 145, and 155, the outermost ones 115, 125, 135, 145, and 155 is larger than the central ones 115, 125, 135, 145 and 155 in volume. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
