Backlight module capable of increasing light output efficiency

Abstract

A backlight module capable of increasing light output efficiency is disclosed. The backlight module includes a light emitting element, a light guide plate, a circuit board, and an intermediate layer. The light guide plate is disposed at a side of the light emitting element. The circuit board is disposed above the light emitting element and the light guide plate. The intermediate layer is disposed between the light emitting element and the light guide plate, and its light transmittance is greater than that of air. The intermediate layer decreases optical energy loss between the light emitting element and the light guide plate, and a goal to increase the light output efficiency of the backlight module is achieved. The present invention also improves an alignment between the light emitting element and the light guide plate when the light emitting element and the light guide plate are assembled together.
