Abstract
Provided is a backlight unit (49) which includes a plurality of LEDs (11). The LEDs (11) are two-dimensionally disposed, thereby having the collection of light emitted from the LEDs (11) in a state of planar light. Furthermore, the backlight unit (49) has the planar light divided into a plurality of sections, and includes a luminance variable system (for instance, a system having disposition which a difference in the density of LEDs (11)), which can change luminance, corresponding to each section.
