Abstract
The present invention provides a prism-integrated light-diffusing plate, characterized in that a prismatic portion formed of a plurality of prism-shaped protrusions is provided on at least one surface of a light-diffusing sheet which is formed of a transparent resin material containing a light-diffusing agent and which has a thickness of 0.5 to 3 mm and a total light transmittance of 60 to 95%. The prism-integrated light-diffusing plate serves as both a prism sheet and a light-diffusing plate, diffuses light uniformly, and increases the brightness of an illumination cover or a liquid crystal display backlight for a large screen.
