Illumination apparatus, display apparatus, and metod of producing an illumination

Abstract

[Object] To provide an illumination apparatus capable of suppressing a chromaticity fluctuation due to a view angle and an incident angle. [Solving Means] In an illumination apparatus for a display apparatus that includes a blue-color light-emitting diode (10) as a light source and a phosphor sheet (21) including a phosphor that obtains white light by converting a color of blue light from the blue-color light-emitting diode (10), diffusion plates (22, 23) are respectively provided opposed to a light-emitting-side surface and a light-incident-side surface of the phosphor sheet (21). The diffusion plate (22) opposed to the light-emitting-side surface of the phosphor sheet (21) suppresses a fluctuation of white-color chromaticity due to a view angle, and the diffusion plate (23) opposed to the light-incident-side surface of the phosphor sheet (21) suppresses a fluctuation of white-color chromaticity due to an incident angle.
