A backlight module includes a light box and multiple real light sources.
The light box has an opening and a plurality of substantially parallel
grooves recessed from a bottom surface thereof. Each of the slots has a
reflection curved surface. A light source allocation line is defined
between every two adjacent grooves. The light source allocation lines are
parallel to the grooves. The sum of shortest distances between any point
of the reflection curved surface and the two adjacent light source
allocation lines is substantially the same. In addition, the real light
sources are alternately allocated in the light source allocation lines. A
part of light emitted from each light source is reflected from the
reflection curved surface to the light source allocation line in which no
light source is allocated. Thereby, a virtual light source is formed on
the light source allocation line that does not contain a real light
source.
