Abstract
A backlight assembly includes a first substrate, a first electrode disposed on the first substrate, a second substrate disposed opposite to the first substrate, and a connector. The connector is disposed on the second substrate and includes a second electrode connected to the first electrode, and an elastic member which applies a force to the second electrode. The connector increases a contact force between the first electrode and the second electrode by applying the force to the second electrode.

A backlight assembly comprising:
- a first substrate;
- a first electrode extending from a first major surface plane defining the first substrate;
- a second substrate defined by a second major surface plane disposed opposite to the first major surface plane defining the first substrate;
- and
- a connector disposed on the second substrate and intermediate the first and second major surface planes, the connector comprising:
- a second electrode connected to the first electrode;
- and
- an elastic member which applies a force to the second electrode,
- wherein the connector increases a contact force between the first electrode and the second electrode by applying the force to the second electrode.
