Abstract
According to one embodiment, an illumination device includes a first substrate, a first electrode section, an organic EL section, a second electrode section, and a second substrate. The first electrode section is provided on a surface of the first substrate and including a plurality of openings. The organic EL section is provided so as to cover the first electrode section and the surface of the first substrate exposed to the plurality of openings. The second electrode section is provided so as to cover the organic EL section. The second substrate is opposed to the surface of the first substrate. The first electrode section is an anode, and the second electrode section is a cathode.
