Abstract
A lighting device includes a substrate and light sources that are top-emitting light sources. The substrate includes a first plate surface and a second plate surface. The light sources include first electrodes and second electrodes. A reflection layer made of metal, an insulating layer, and a first conductive pattern are formed on the first plate surface in this sequence from a lower layer side. A second conductive pattern is formed on the second plate surface. The light sources are disposed on the first plate surface with the first electrodes and the second electrodes electrically connected to the first conductive pattern and at least the first electrodes or the second electrodes electrically connected to the second conductive pattern via holes in the substrate. The reflection layer is divided into divided reflection areas by slits. The holes are formed in the divided reflection areas, respectively.
