Abstract
Provided is a liquid crystal display device sequentially including: a first polarizer; a liquid crystal panel; a second polarizer; a biaxial retarder; a third polarizer; and a backlight including a light source and a prism sheet disposed closer to the viewing surface side than the light source is. The prism sheet includes prisms arranged in multiple columns on a surface close to the viewing surface side. The liquid crystal display has a light diffusion property curve having no side lobe or having a side lobe satisfying a ratio of a local maximum luminance to a local minimum luminance of 1.35 or less, the light diffusion property curve being obtained by plotting a luminance in a white display state in a direction perpendicular to ridge lines of the prisms against a polar angle.
