Abstract
A light guide plate made of a transparent resin includes a first main surface and a second main surface opposite to the first main surface. The first main surface has a surface portion provided with convex portions having a height in the range of 5×10−7 m to 6×10−5 m each and a pitch in the range of 5×10−7 m to 4×10−4 m. The light guide plate having tip portions of at least 80% of the total convex portions with a radius of curvature of 2×10−6 m or less, or the surface of the convex portions having a surface roughness of 3×10−7 m or less.
