Abstract
A display device including a display panel, a flexible light guide having a Young's modulus of about 10 to 1000 MPa, a light emitting element, and an optical layer is provided. The flexible light guide includes a light source portion, a light entrance portion, and a middle portion. The middle portion is bent, so that the light source portion and the light entrance portion are disposed at the opposite sides of the display panel. The light emitting element is disposed adjacent to the light entrance portion of the flexible light guide with a light emitting surface facing the side edge of the flexible light guide. The optical layer is in contact with a surface of the light source portion and a difference of refractive index between the flexible light guide and the optical layer is in a range of 0.1 to 0.2.
