BACKLIGHT ASSEMBLY, LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY APPARATUS HAVING THE SAME, AND METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A backlight assembly comprising:
- a light source generating light;
a light-guide plate guiding the light generated from the light source toward a second surface of the light-guide plate and having a plurality of first prism patterns adjacent to each other, the first prism patterns formed on a first surface of the light-guide plate, the first surface being opposite to the second surface of the light-guide plate; and
a lateral reflective sheet disposed over the second surface of the light-guide plate.

Abstract
A backlight assembly includes a light source, a light-guide plate, a reflective sheet, a first prism sheet, a second prism sheet and a lateral reflective sheet. The light source generates light. The light-guide plate guides the light and has a plurality of first prism patterns adjacent to each other. The first prism patterns are formed on a first surface of the light-guide plate. The reflective sheet is disposed adjacent the first surface of the light-guide plate. The first and second prism sheets are disposed on a second surface of the light-guide plate. The lateral reflective sheet is disposed on the second prism sheet. The lateral reflective sheet includes reflective protrusions substantially parallel with a longitudinal direction of the light source. Therefore, brightness and display quality may be enhanced.
