PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a backlight assembly and a liquid crystal display device having the same capable of decreasing a time for stabilizing luminance. SOLUTION: The backlight assembly includes a receiving container, a flat fluorescent lamp, and a heat generating sheet. The flat fluorescent lamp is received in the receiving container and generates light while it is divided into a plurality of discharge spaces, and the heat generating sheet is installed below the fluorescent lamp and supplies the heat to the lamp. The heat generating sheet is installed under the fluorescent lamp and supplies the lamp with heat. The heat generating sheet is laid corresponding to an effective light emitting region of the lamp where the light is emitted substantially. As a result, heat is provided to the lamp, thereby decreasing a time for stabilizing a luminance and improving light emitting characteristics. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
