Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an optical fiber capable of converting a wavelength of a light emitted from a light source and a backlight unit using the same.According to the present disclosure, it is possible to extract a light of a desired wavelength band or a desired color (for example, a white light) by connecting an optical fiber, to which a color conversion material is applied, to a single laser light emitting element that emits a light of a specific wavelength band.
