Backlight module with reflection-reducing component and display device comprising the same
View Patent ↗A backlight module is provided. The backlight module includes a light guide plate, a reflective component, a reflection-reducing component, and a light source. The light guide plate includes a surface having a main region and a peripheral region surrounding the main region. The reflective component is disposed adjacent to the surface and corresponding to the main region. The reflection-reducing component is disposed adjacent to the surface and corresponding to the peripheral region. The light source emits a light to a side of the light guide plate. In addition, a reflectivity of the reflection-reducing component is less than a reflectivity of the reflective component.
