Abstract
A light emitting device is provided with an LED substrate (mounting substrate) (); a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) () mounted on the LED substrate (); and a reflector (), which is mounted on the LED substrate (), has a first surface (), and a second surface () having a front-rear relationship with the first surface (), reflects light emitted from one light-emitting diode (LED) () of the light-emitting diodes (LEDs) () by the first surface (), and reflects light from the light-emitting diode (LED) () adjacent to the one light-emitting diode (LED) () by the second surface (). Thus, in a backlight device using a solid-state light emitting element, such as a LED, luminance is made uniform by reducing luminance nonuniformity.
