Abstract
A surface light source device includes a housing having an opening portion provided in a top surface thereof, a reflection sheet disposed on a bottom surface of the housing, a light guide plate disposed on the reflection sheet on a side of the opening, and a light source disposed on at least one of side surfaces of the housing. The reflection sheet has a first reflection region on a side opposite to the light source, and a reflectance of the first reflection region at shorter wavelengths in a wavelength region of visible light outputted from the light source is higher than a reflectance at longer wavelengths in the wavelength region of the visible light.
