Abstract
A planar illumination device of an embodiment includes a substrate, a first linear Fresnel lens, and a second linear Fresnel lens. The substrate includes a plurality of light sources disposed two-dimensionally in a grid pattern. The first linear Fresnel lens is disposed at an emission side of the plurality of light sources and formed with a groove constituting a concave-convex surface of the lens and extending in one direction. The second linear Fresnel lens is disposed at an emission side of the first linear Fresnel lens and formed with a groove constituting the concave-convex surface of the lens and extending in a direction orthogonal to the one direction.
