Abstract:
An illumination apparatus includes a light source, and a light guide plate having an emitting surface and a light incident portion including a curved surface, and decreasing in thickness from the light source side towards the emitting surface. The curved surface has an S-shape as viewed from a side, with a convex portion on the light source side and a concave portion on the emitting surface with an inflection point in between, but closer to the emitting surface than to the source side.
