Abstract:
A light source device includes a light emitting body, a pair of main electrodes and a pair of sub electrodes. The light emitting body includes discharge spaces disposed substantially parallel to each other. The main electrodes are disposed at opposite end portions of the light emitting body, respectively. The main electrodes induce an electrical discharge of a gas in the discharge spaces between the main electrodes. The sub electrodes are disposed between the main electrodes. The sub electrodes induce an electrical discharge of a gas in the discharge spaces between the sub electrodes. Resultantly, power consumption is reduced and uniformity of luminance is enhanced. Therefore, display quality of the display apparatus is enhanced.

A display device includes a light source member, a diffusion member and a display panel. The light source member generates a bluish light. The diffusion member diffuses the bluish light to increase luminance uniformity. The display panel includes a liquid crystal layer, a fluorescent layer and a reflective-polarizing member (a reflective polarizer). The fluorescent layer generates visible light based on the bluish light received from the liquid crystal layer. The reflective-polarizing member partially reflects the visible light generated from the fluorescent layer toward the fluorescent layer. Therefore, luminance and viewing angle are increased.
