PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a flat light source, especially a backlight for a liquid crystal display device, minimizing the light loss in a liquid crystal panel. SOLUTION: This flat light source has a light source; a light guide plate leading the light thereinto from the end face opposite to the light source and diffusing the light, and reflecting the light on a reflection face to project the reflected light to the outside; and a prism sheet transmitting the reflected light and projecting the transmitted light as projection light in the normal direction to illuminate an object. A vertical angle of each microprism of the prism sheet is 65-75 deg., and the microprisms are disposed face down. |
