1. A backlight assembly comprising:
- a light emitting part which generates a light;
a light guide plate comprising;
a light emitting surface, and a bottom surface opposing the light emitting surface; and
a first side surface which receives the light generated from the light emitting part, and a second side surface adjacent to the first side surface, wherein the first and second side surfaces connect the light emitting and bottom surfaces to each other;
a bracket which is fixed to the second side surface of the light guide plate; and
a receiving container comprising a bottom, and sidewall which perpendicularly extends from the bottom, wherein the receiving container receives the light emitting part and the light guide plate, and the sidewall includes a combining portion which is combined with the bracket.

19. A method of forming a backlight assembly, the method comprising:
-
preparing a receiving container including a sidewall which is extended from a bottom portion, and a combining member which is extended into a thickness of the sidewall from an inner surface thereof; attaching a bracket to a first side surface of a light guide plate which does not receive light from a light source; disposing the light source facing a second side surface of the light guide plate which is adjacent to the first side surface; and combining a portion of the bracket with the combining member of the receiving container, such that the light guide plate and the receiving container are removably disposed with each other, wherein the light guide plate comprises a light emitting surface, and a bottom surface opposing the light emitting surface, and the first and second side surfaces connect the light emitting and the bottom surfaces of the light guide plate to each other. - View Dependent Claims (20)
