Abstract
A display device and a backlight module thereof are provided. The display device further includes a display panel having a display area. The backlight module is disposed under the display panel and includes a light source holder, a light source, and a light guide plate. The light source holder has a sidewall, a top plate, and a bottom plate, wherein the bottom plate partially overlaps the display area of the display device. The light guide plate is disposed corresponding to the display area of the display device and has one end located in an opening between the top plate and the bottom plate. A thermal isolating layer is interposed between the light guide plate and a portion of the bottom plate which corresponds to the display area. The perpendicular distance between the light guide plate and the portion of the bottom plate overlapping the thermal isolating layer is greater than a perpendicular distance between the light guide plate and the other portion of the bottom plate.
