して輝度が低下してしまうという難点があった。However, although the former can provide high brightness, it has problems such as being thick as a planar light source device, increasing the size of the entire device, and limiting its use. Also, the latter has the advantage that it is thin and the brightness can be made uniform regardless of the distance from the light source due to the predetermined diffusion layer pattern.
Since the diffusion layer pattern is formed by coating a white pigment, it is difficult to form a fine pattern. For this reason, conventionally,
A pattern of approximately 20 L/inch to 60 L/inch was formed, but such a pattern would be visible from the light exit surface of the light guide plate if left as it was, so an additional diffuser plate was required to erase the pattern. However, as a planar light source, there was a problem in that the brightness decreased.

It has a light diffusion pattern consisting of halftone dots of 300 L/inch, and the area of the light diffusion pattern increases as the amount of light transmitted through the transparent plate decreases.

射出面となる。As the transparent plate, a substantially transparent plate that is normally used as a light guide plate, such as a glass plate or an acrylic plate, is used. Such a transparent plate has an end surface in the thickness direction as an incident surface, and a straight tube-shaped light source such as a fluorescent lamp is attached thereto, and a surface perpendicular to the incident surface serves as a light exit surface.

によってパターン形成させる。The light diffusion layer is provided on the light exit surface of the transparent plate or the opposite surface thereof. The light diffusing layer consists of a predetermined pattern formed of a material that efficiently diffuses and reflects incident light, and this pattern is preferably formed by a printing method or a photographic method using a photosensitive composition. In the case of a printing method, a printing ink containing a white pigment such as titanium oxide or zinc oxide or an extender pigment such as silica or talc is printed by a known printing method such as offset printing, silk screen printing, or gravure printing. In the case of a photographic method, the above-mentioned pigment is dispersed in a known photosensitive composition and applied to the entire surface of the film, and then a pattern is formed by a photographic method.

この場合は、透明板として薄いものを用いた場合でもそ
の破損や反りを生じることかなく製造が容易である。In this case, even if a thin transparent plate is used, it is easy to manufacture without causing damage or warping.

るパターン面積が最大となるようにする。As shown in Figure 3, the pattern of the light diffusion layer is preferably such that its area increases as the amount of light transmitted through the transparent plate decreases, so that it is uniform regardless of the distance from the light source. Brightness can be ensured. Therefore, when the light source is provided at one end of the light guide plate, the area of the pattern that reflects light increases as the distance from the light source increases, and when the light source is provided at both ends of the light guide plate, the pattern area that reflects the light increases. The area of the pattern that reflects light is maximized at the center of the light guide plate between the two.

If it is rougher than h, the pattern will be visible and a diffuser plate will be required to erase the pattern, which may reduce the brightness as a planar light source. Furthermore, if the thickness is too fine, it becomes difficult to obtain a uniform pattern with good reproducibility.

い。As shown in FIG. 2, for example, the light guide plate of the present invention configured as described above has a total reflection film 4 attached to the surface 1a on which the light diffusion layer 2 is formed, and a fluorescent film is attached to one end surface IC in the thickness direction. By combining the straight tube light source 5 such as a lamp with other light sources, it can be used as a planar light source in various devices requiring a planar light source, such as an exposure device, a light table, and a display device. In this case, the light source is preferably covered with a reflective film 6 so that the light is emitted toward the light guide plate. In addition, in the figure, the surface 1b opposite to the surface 1a on which the light diffusion layer 2 is formed is used as the light emission surface, or the surface 1a on which the light diffusion layer 2 is formed by pasting the total reflection film 4 on the opposite surface 1b is used as the light emission surface. It can also be used as a mask.

1記載の面状光源用導光板。[Claims] 1. A transparent plate having at least one end surface as an incident surface and a surface perpendicular to the incident surface as a light exit surface, and a light exit surface of the transparent plate or a surface opposite to the light exit surface. In the light guide plate comprising a light diffusing layer, the light diffusing layer has a rate of 100 L/inch.
A surface having a light diffusion pattern consisting of halftone dots of ~300 L/inch, and the area of the light diffusion pattern increasing as the amount of light transmitted through the transparent plate decreases. Light guide plate for shaped light sources. 2. The light guide plate for a planar light source according to claim 1, wherein the pattern of the light diffusion layer is formed by a printing method. 3. The light guide plate for a planar light source according to claim 1, wherein the pattern of the light diffusion layer is formed by a photographic method using a photosensitive composition. 4. The light guide plate for a planar light source according to claim 1, wherein the light diffusion layer is formed by pasting a flexible film on which a pattern has been formed in advance by a printing method. 5. The planar light source guide according to claim 1, wherein the light diffusion layer is formed by pasting a flexible film on which a pattern has been formed in advance by a photographic method using a photosensitive composition. light board
