Abstract:
There is a provided a surface light source device comprising: a light source body having an inner space therein in which a discharge gas is contained; a plurality of electrodes formed on the light source body in such a manner as to electrically divide the inner space into at least three blocks and applying discharge voltages to the blocks; and a driving unit sequentially applying the discharge voltages to the blocks through the electrodes in synchronization with a video signal of an external display device. The light source body may have a plurality of discharge spaces or a single discharge space therein. In accordance with the present invention, the surface light source device sequentially applies the discharge voltages to the blocks, and thereby can reduce an after-image occurring in a liquid crystal display device. Further, the surface light source device is driven with a duty ratio varied depending on brightness of the video signal, and thereby integrated power consumption can be reduced and a contrast ratio can be improved.

Abstract:
A surface light source includes a plate type light source body having a sealed discharging space formed therein, a plate type electrode unit having a plurality of regions adjacent to at least one major surface of the light source body, and a multiple voltage applying unit operable to apply voltages independently to each of the plurality of regions. In this way, brightness of the surface light source can be controlled independently in each of the plurality of regions and a local dimming for a surface light source can be realized.
