FIELD: physics.
SUBSTANCE: backlight unit (49) of a display device (69), having a liquid crystal display panel (59), equipped with a base (41), a diffusing plate (43) mounted on the base, and a light source which illuminates the diffusing plate with light. The light source has a plurality of light-emitting modules (MJ) which include a light-emitting diode (22) which serves as a light-emitting element, and a divergent lens (24) covering the light-emitting diode. The light-emitting modules are placed on a grid on the base supporting the diffusing plate. Carrier pins (26) for mounting the diffusing plate are located on points on the base. The carrier pins are placed on sections of lines linking neighbouring pairs of light-emitting modules.
EFFECT: eliminating non-uniformity of luminance.
