Backlight module
A backlight module comprises a light guide plate, a light source disposed on one lateral side of the light guide plate, a reflector disposed under the light guide plate, and a color layer of a predetermined color disposed under the reflector. Light from the light source is guided by the light guide plate. A part of the light penetrates the reflector and is reflected by the color layer to generate colored light which is mixed to the light from the light source to create light of desired color.
1 . A backlight module, comprising:
a light guide plate;
a light source disposed on one lateral side of the light guide plate;
a reflector disposed under the light guide plate; and
a color layer of a predetermined color disposed under the reflector, whereby the reflector is between the light guide plate and the color layer, light from the light source is guided by the light guide plate, and a part of the light penetrates the reflector and is reflected by the color layer to generate colored light which is mixed with the light from the light source to create light of desired color.
