Abstract
A backlight module includes at least one light emitting element capable of emitting a light beam and a light diffusion brightness enhancement film. The brightness enhancement film includes a light transmissive substrate, a plurality of prism rods, and at least one light diffusion structure. The light transmissive substrate has a first and a second surfaces opposite to each other. The first and the second surfaces are disposed in a transmission path of the light beam. The first surface is disposed between the light emitting element and the second surface. Each of the prism rod extends along a first direction. The prism rods are disposed on the first surface and are arranged along a second direction. The light diffusion structure is disposed on the first surface and between the two adjacent prism rods, and has a rough surface. The light diffusion structure and the rough surface extend along the first direction.
