Abstract

A light emitting unit including a first substrate and a plurality of first light emitting elements arranged on the first substrate in a certain arrangement rule. The first light emitting elements are light emitting diodes (LEDs) or organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) of the same kind, or the first light emitting elements are LEDs or OLEDs of different kind. An alternative a light emitting unit includes a second substrate and a plurality of second light emitting elements and a plurality of third light emitting elements arranged on the second substrate in a certain arrangement rule. The second light emitting elements are LEDs of the same kind or different kind, and the third light emitting elements are OLEDs of the same kind or different kind. A backlight having the light emitting unit is also disclosed.
