Illumination device and manufacturing method therefor, display device, and electronic instrument

An illumination device comprising:

• a transparent substrate having light emitting elements which are disposed on a surface thereof,
• wherein the illumination device emits light towards a display device which includes an array of pixels,
• wherein the light emitting elements are provided with at least a transparent electrode, a light emitting layer, and a reflective electrode in order from the outgoing surface of the transparent substrate, and
• wherein the light emitting elements are arranged in lines and a first interval between the adjacent lines is different from a second interval between adjacent ones of the pixels.

A display device comprising:

• a liquid crystal panel including a plurality of pixels;
• and
• an illumination device that emits light towards a viewing side of the liquid crystal panel,
• wherein the illumination device, includes:
• a plurality of light emitting elements;
• and
• a transparent substrate that has an outgoing surface, light from the light emitting elements passing through the transparent substrate and being emitted from the outgoing surface, and the light emitting elements being arranged to be opposite to the outgoing surface.

An illumination device comprising:

• a light emitting element formed in a lattice configuration in a pattern on one surface of a transparent substrate,
• wherein the illumination device emits light towards a display device which includes an array of pixels,
• wherein the light emitting element is provided with at least a transparent electrode, a light emitting layer, and a reflective electrode in order from the outgoing surface of the transparent substrate, and
• wherein the light emitting element is linearly arranged, and a first direction in which the light emitting element extends is not parallel to a second direction in which the pixels of the display device are aligned.
