A back-light assembly capable of preventing light leakage and a liquid crystal display including the same. The back-light assembly includes a lamp emitting light, a lamp holder comprising a reflecting part into which the lamp is inserted and an absorbing part, wherein the absorbing part absorbs the light, and the reflecting part reflects the light, a side member comprising a through hole, the lamp being inserted into the through hole, and a bottom chassis comprising a bottom surface and side surfaces, the side surfaces extending from the bottom surface.

Back-light assembly and liquid crystal display including the same

A backlight assembly that does not use a bottom chassis is presented. The absence of bottom chassis reduces manufacturing cost, simplifies the assembly process, and facilitates heat dissipation. The backlight assembly includes a lamp, a light guide plate, a mold frame and a securing mold. The lamp unit includes a lamp that generates light and a lamp cover that partially encloses the lamp. The light guide plate receives the light from the lamp unit and guides the light toward the front of the backlight assembly. The mold frame receives the lamp unit and the light guide plate through an open portion. The securing mold is coupled to the lamp unit and combines with the mold frame to secure the first lamp unit. The backlight assembly relies on one mold frame to hold its components together.
