Abstract
The backlight assembly includes a light source part and a light guide plate. The light source part generates a first light beam. The light guide plate has a plurality of light guide blocks. Each of the light guide blocks has a light incident surface, an opposite surface, a light emitting surface, and an inclined surface. The light incident surface receives the first light beam. The opposite surface is located opposite to the light incident surface, has a convex shape with respect to the light incident surface, and reflects the first light beam and converts the first light beam into a second light beam. The light emitting surface emits the second light beam. The inclined surface is inclined with respect to the light emitting surface.
