IMAGE SOURCE UNIT AND DISPLAY DEVICE
First Claim
1. An image source unit comprising:
- a liquid crystal panel including a lower polarizing plate, an upper polarizing plate, and a liquid crystal layer arranged between the lower polarizing plate and the upper polarizing plate; and
an optical sheet arranged on the lower polarizing plate side from the liquid crystal panel,wherein;
the optical sheet includes a base material layer, an optical functional layer arranged on one face of the base material layer, and an adhesive layer;
the optical functional layer includes a plurality of light transmissive portions having one extending direction along a face of the base material layer and having a predetermined cross section, arrayed in a direction different from the extending direction at predetermined intervals, and an in-between portion(s) formed in each of the intervals of the adjacent light transmissive portions; and
the lower polarizing plate of the liquid crystal panel and the optical sheet are adhered to each other by the adhesive layer.
