ABSTRACT:
A key top, a key top lighting device and an electronic apparatus with improved operability for use in the dark is provided wherein the key top can be illuminated at a low power consumption rate and without disturbing the people nearby. Specifically, a transparent fluorescent ink that emits fluorescent light upon being irradiated by black light having a wavelength within a range of 300 nm to 450 nm is printed on the key top, and a black light lamp irradiates the black light on this key top, so that the operability of the key top can be improved when used in the dark.
