A backlight unit includes a light source having an emission region, a wiring board having the light source mounted thereon, a light guide plate having a side surface into which light from the light source enters, and a front surface from which the light exits, a light shielding adhesive tape adhering to the wiring board, and an optical sheet which overlaps with the front surface of the light guide plate. The front surface of the light guide plate includes an effective region serving as a planar light source and a light entering region ranging from the side surface to the effective region. The wiring board and the light-shielding adhesive tape each have a part positioned in the light entering region, and the optical sheet is arranged from the effective region to the light entering region. An end portion of the optical sheet overlaps with the light-shielding tape.
1. A backlight comprising:
a light source having an emission region;
a wiring board having the light source mounted thereon;
a light guide plate having a side surface into which light from the light source enters, and a front surface from which the light exits; and
an optical sheet which overlaps with the front surface of the light guide plate,
wherein the front surface of the light guide plate includes an effective region serving as a planar light source and a light entering region ranging from the side surface to the effective region,
wherein the optical sheet is arranged from the effective region to the light source, and overlapped with a light-shielding layer in the light entering region.
2. The backlight according to claim 1 , wherein an adhesive tape is overlapped with the light guide plate and the light source.
3. The backlight according to claim 1 , wherein an adhesive tape adheres to the wiring board.
4. The backlight according to claim 1 , wherein an adhesive tape adheres to the wiring board, and is overlapped with the optical sheet outside the wiring board.
5. The backlight according to claim 4 , wherein a portion of the adhesive tape overlapped with the optical sheet is arranged on the light guide plate.
6. The backlight according to claim 4 , wherein a portion of the adhesive tape overlapped with the optical sheet is arranged on the light-shielding layer.
7. A backlight comprising:
a light source having an emission region;
a wiring board having the light source mounted thereon;
a light guide plate having a side surface into which light from the light source enters, and a front surface from which the light exits;
an adhesive tape adhered to the wiring board; and
an optical sheet disposed above the front surface of the light guide plate,
wherein the front surface of the light guide plate comprises an effective region outputting the light from the light source and a light entering region provided between the effective region and the side surface,
wherein the optical sheet extends from the effective region to the light entering region, and overlaps with a light-shielding layer in the light entering region, and
wherein the adhesive tape overlaps the optical sheet.
8. The backlight according to claim 7 , wherein the adhesive tape overlaps the light source.
9. The backlight according to claim 7 , wherein the adhesive tape overlaps the light entering region.
10. The backlight according to claim 7 , wherein the adhesive tape overlaps the light-shielding layer.
