US Patent 7452121 Backlight assembly and display device having the same

A backlight assembly includes a light-generating device, a receiving container, a first heat-dissipating member, a heat-blocking member, and a second heat-dissipating member. The receiving container receives the light-generating device. The first heat-dissipating member contacts the receiving container. The heat-blocking member is disposed on the first heat-dissipating member. The second heat-dissipating member contacts the first heat-dissipating member. Therefore, liquid crystal is prevented from being deteriorated by heat generated by a light source.
