Abstract
The Fresnel lens sheet according to the present invention has a plurality of prismatic Fresnel lens elements including a Fresnel facet, a riser facet, and a top facet crossing the facet and the riser facet on an entrance surface. An angle of the top facet of each Fresnel lens element constituting the lens relative to the an exit surface, δ1, is determined so that an exit angle of the light that has entered each of the top facets and exits from the exit surface, β, is greater than 35 degrees.
