Abstract

A light source unit is provided which makes an excellent contrast between the black display portions and the white display portions if mounted on a display, while having a high frontal luminance. The light source unit includes: a light source; a color conversion material that converts incident light from the light source into light having a longer wavelength than the incident light; and a reflective film that exists between the light source and the color conversion material and that transmits light from the light source incident perpendicularly on the film surface and reflects light from the color conversion material incident perpendicularly on the film surface; wherein the P-Polarized light of the light incident from the light source on the reflective film surface at an angle of 20°, 40°, and 60° is reflected at a reflectance of R20(%), R40(%), and R60(%) respectively, which satisfy R20<R40<R60.
