Abstract:
1. An LCD backlight unit comprising: a plane light source including light emitting device matrixes each having a plurality of light emitting devices arranged in rows and columns on a substrate, the plane light source comprising: a first matrix having a plurality of light emitting devices arranged in rows and columns; and a second matrix having a plurality of light emitting devices arranged in rows and columns, the light emitting devices each located within a rectangle formed by four adjacent light emitting devices included in the first matrix, and forming angles θ satisfying the condition of 45°≦θ≦55° therebetween on the basis of a horizontal direction, wherein among pitches between one light emitting devices included in the light emitting device matrixes and another lighting light emitting device adjacent to the light emitting device, a pitch P a diffusion sheet located above the plane light source and uniformly diffusing light incident from the plane light source; and at least one light collecting sheet located above the diffusion sheet and collecting light diffused by the diffusion sheet in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the LCD panel.
