Patent attributes
An object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal display apparatus that can eliminate brightness nonuniformity by suitably diffusing light emitted from a light source. The liquid crystal display apparatus includes a liquid crystal panel providing a liquid crystal between a pair of substrates, the liquid crystal panel having an effective display area for displaying information, a sealing member placed around the liquid crystal in order to seal the liquid crystal between the pair of substrates, a light source for illuminating the liquid crystal panel from an edge thereof, and light diffusing means, provided between the pair of substrates, for diffusing the light introduced from the light source into the effective display area.
